     If you make or sell things that you think would make good holiday gifts, I'd like to hear about them.

     Please respond to this post. I'll boost stuff. It'll be great.

     I don’t make many giftable items themselves, but I sell a few knitting and cross stitch patterns that people can make cool gifts from.
     (Most if them are small, there is TOTALLY enough time to get one or two made in time…Totally… uh huh…)

     @ajroach42 most new inexpensive DVD players at discount stores and elsewhere play VCDs. Often had for $25 or less.

     I also got some Dragon Ball VCDs, and I will endevor to discover what the most modern and commonly available device is that can play VCDs. Is it a console? Is it a bluray player? DVD player? PC? We'll find out.

     Okay, I found some VCRs at a price I was willing to pay and got a couple.

     I think I saw blood rubies when I was a kid? I think that's the one I'll get.

     Were any of the Dragon Ball (pre-Z) movies any good? I've never seen them!

     My little brother already has a VCR, which I may have given him in the past, or he may have acquired on his own. My memory is hazy.

     So I'm getting him a couple of VHS tapes.

     Specifically, I'm giving him some Dragon Ball Z OVA VHS tapes.

     (I don't *need* an a toploader. I have a really wonderful HDMI upscaling VCR that I really love and use at least once a month.

     But I'd love to get a beautiful old TV and a toploading VCR.)

     I wish I could find some decent VCRs for sale.

     I'd love to give many of the people in my life a VCR.

     One like this, or possibly even clunkier.
