It's definitely #HintingSeason, and everyone in the family has something to add to Mama's shopping list. In looking around Best Buy (in person and online), I've quickly discovered a place where the majority of their wished-for items can be purchased and checked off of the list.
For my husband, the Best Buy gift selection is going to be easy. We recently took a trip to Ann Arbor, and on the way, discovered our GPS is no longer working. Our first thought was maybe it got too cold, because we left it in the car. That may well be the case, but even after being in the house to warm up (for a week), it's not working.
My husband is definitely going to have a GPS from Best Buy wrapped up and placed under the tree. I'm not too sure how surprised he will be about it...I'm just hoping he doesn't have the same idea and duplicate the gift. Although, if he does, I certainly won't complain. We don't use the one in my car as often, but an upgrade would definitely be nice.
The Garmin 52LM would also be a great choice!
Best Buy is a super savvy, one-stop shopping destination for everyone in the family! |

The Xbox One at Best Buy is an awesome gift choice! |
My second oldest son, now grown and very busy working, is still a gamer at heart. Paying his own bills though, doesn't leave a lot of room for indulgent purchases...lucky for him, he's got a mom who thinks that's what parents (from time-to-time) are for, and most especially so at Christmas. I know he would love an Xbox One gaming system, and he may well find one this year, under the tree, with his name on it. There is an Xbox One at Best Buy that comes in a bundle package (with a game) for a great price. I'm thinking that will be the perfect surprise gift to give him from 'Santa.' I could get him the console alone, and I know he'd love it, but it'd be nice for him to have a game too (so he could play right away...a perfect way to spend a little of his vacation time, and I'm sure his older brother who will be here visiting as well, will want to play with him too).
What is Xbox One?
Xbox One was built by gamers, for gamers. With the best exclusive titles (Halo and Sunset Overdrive), the biggest blockbusters (Assasin's Creed and Call of Duty), the hottest sports franchises (Madden 15, FIFA 15, NBA 2K15), and top family titles (Fantasia: Music Evolved, Just Dance 15, and Skylanders) Xbox One takes gaming to a whole new level.
In addition to being a great gaming console, Xbox One connects consumers unlike any other device. XBox One enables access to the latest TV shows and movies through your favorite apps. With Xbox One all of your media is at your fingertips when you want it. Visit Best Buy to learn more.
My teen and my oldest son are my music babies. Giving them a JBL Holiday from Best Buy would absolutely make them happy. My oldest works out a lot, and when he does his music is right there with him...always. I know he'd love the JBL Reflect Earbud Headphones. They are designed with a sweat-proof ergonomic design, have a 5-hour rechargeable battery, and a reach of about 40 feet! The JBL Reflect BT's key benefit is the design of the ergonomic ear tips along with the built-in magnets that keep your buds on standby without loose cables.
That's not the only time my son likes music though, like his younger sister, he likes to hear music anytime. For either him or my daughter, the JBL Charge 2 or JBL Flip 2 portable speakers would be an awesome Best Buy purchase.
The JBL Charge 2 has twin passive radiators for deep bass, a massive 6000mAh battery, and a hands-free conference speakerphone. The key benefit is the Bluetooth Social Mode which allows up to three different users to take their turns to play their own playlists on a single speaker.
The JBL Flip 2, aside from the dual performance-tuned JBL drivers and a built-in bass port, also has SoundClear echo and noise cancellation, combined with a state-of-the-art microphone system to pick up calls on the speaker.
So now I have shared some of the items on our holiday shopping list this year. With Expert Service and Unbeatable Prices, Best Buy is absolutely our go-to place for holiday shopping. Did you see something on the list that you would like to buy for someone as well?

Can't go wrong with an xbox one, as they sure are fun. But yeah when working for a living not much time to play as before haha
ReplyDeleteRight! Makes him appreciate the beauty of childhood, I'm sure. ;)
DeleteSounds like there's gonna be a lot of happy present-openers at your house this year. Not sure how surprised they'll be though, especially if they read your blog.
ReplyDeleteNice post.
I thought of that too. Hubby never visits, and the kids only do if I want to show them something on here, which is rarely. ;)
DeleteMy oldest son would love these gifts. He is big into electronics.
ReplyDeleteHubby has been hinting for a GPS. I'm sure he will want this!
ReplyDeleteHubby is hinting for tools this year. I don't know why. It's a real pain getting him to use the ones he does have. I think he'd get more use out of what Best Buy has to offer!
ReplyDeleteYour family sounds just like mine - each of those gifts would be perfect for one of them!
ReplyDeleteI need those headphones...
ReplyDeleteWOW.... lots of stuff. Well, since I don't need any more stuff, nor neither does any one on my list, I'll hope the space under your tree is jolly and filled to the brim.
ReplyDeleteBest Buy is the one stop shop for all your electronic needs. Gotta love their customer service as well.
ReplyDeleteI get a lot there
ReplyDeleteI would like to have a GPS for my car. Is that your tree? It's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThat's Best Buy's tree for the ad. Our tree is pretty too, but it's not elegant like that one...ours is a mish mash of favorite ornaments we've collected or the kids have made over the years. ;)
DeleteMy husband and the boys would looooove the xbox!
ReplyDeleteThis is my husband's complete Christmas list. To Best Buy I go.
ReplyDeleteI think my shopping is just about done. :) I have to work on cookies, wrapping gifts, and making some crafty things with Isaak this week.
ReplyDeleteMy Garmin is so old & he's always giving me the wrong directions. I need a new one!
ReplyDeleteWe were going to go last week, but never made it. Going this week. I want that new television.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day Rosey. ☺
Ohhhhhhhhhh Sandee, I want that TV too!! Enjoy!!
DeleteSounds like some great gift ideas. My son wants an Xbox One, not sure he is getting it though! Maybe Santa will be generous.
ReplyDeleteWe so-oo need a new GPS. Ours is 6 years old and the maps haven't ever been updated. Definitely adding it to my wish list.
ReplyDeletebest buy is a great place for gifts. I love to shop for my whole family there the selection is great!
ReplyDeleteBest Buy definitely has everything I have been hinting at. Including some things hubby has been hinting at. LOL
ReplyDeleteI've got to get a GPS device before I head up north. I hate draining my phone and using that so I want a separate device!
ReplyDeleteIt's easier to see if you're not using the phone too. Have a safe drive, I know you're going to love seeing your family!
DeleteWe are ready for an upgrade on our GPS too. I love that big 5" screen! Best Buy has some awesome electronics at the best prices! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's funny because my husband and I were just talking about finding a Best Buy. We don't have one close to us
ReplyDeleteYes, I would like to buy that Tom Tom Go for...me!
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays, Rosey.
I need to get one for my Hubs Robyn. His just isn't working any longer
DeleteMy husband could use his own GPS. We have one, but as much as we travel, we should have two.
ReplyDeleteI could do with a new satnav mine is a bit out of date now which is sad.
ReplyDeleteLove Best Buy. They really have everything at great prices.
ReplyDeleteMy oldest wants the xbox one I'll be going to best buy they have the best prices and I want to tinker with some display items hehe
ReplyDeleteI don't totally trust my car's GPS, I think the garmin is a better tool. Will have to look at these next time at best buy.
ReplyDeleteI am headed to see my dad in Kentucky for Christmas and this sure would come in handy. I have been meaning to get one for years!
ReplyDeleteThe xbox is on our list for sure! What a cool list.
ReplyDeleteYep. I need an Xbox One. For my nephew. Yeah, for my nephew...
DeleteWe bought the 360 for the kids a few years back... and the hubby. ;)
DeleteI stopped hinting now I am screaming. I want this!
ReplyDeleteA GPS is a necessity in my life before I got one I was always lost. lol
ReplyDeleteRight!! Me too. My GPS was one of my most favorite gifts of all-time! I want this one w/a big 5" screen!!
DeleteI love Best Buy! I'll only go there for electronics and appliances. A GPS is a must for me as I'm always getting lost.
ReplyDeleteMe too. One of the best/most useful inventions ever.
DeleteI'm glad we already got the kids the Xbox last year. We will be heading to Best Buy for new games for it this year!
ReplyDeleteMy son is not so subtly hinting that he needs an XBOX One. Alas, we still have a standard TV, so it's not compatible. So now he's hinting that we need a flat screen TV!
ReplyDeleteWe buy all our electronics at Best Buy, so I'm looking forward to spending some time there this weekend. I have a whole list of things I want!
ReplyDeleteAll great gift ideas! pretty sure my husband would like them all!
ReplyDeleteMy Mom recently misplaced the GPS unit I bought for her several years ago--hey she is 92-she is allowed!! This would make a great gift for the holidays for her--she still drives and I feel a whole lot better when she has a GPS unit with her just in case!!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome that she's still driving!
DeleteI love best buy!!!! My mom needs a new GPS pretty badly ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm really hoping to get a new Sony camera from Best Buy for Christmas. I may have to buy it for myself though!
ReplyDeleteHinting season. That's cute. Never heard it put that way. I know Best Buy is definitely a good place to shop if you have a tech savvy person in the house. We buy a lot of our electronics there.
ReplyDeleteAll of it! LOL We love gadgets in our house. My camera died today, so that is now #1 on my list! Would love a JBL speaker of my own, and that 3D Garmin is super-cool!
ReplyDeleteSeems everyone wants the gadgets!
ReplyDeleteThey have some great deals going on for sure.. i am keeping an eye out for a good tv..
ReplyDeleteThere is no better place to shop for gadgets than best buy. We love them.

DeleteLove it. I have been hinting at a TV. Hope I see it under the tree....or mounted on the wall in my living room
ReplyDeleteI've never really played the Xbox. My brother has the original, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind an upgrade to the Xbox One. Maybe he needs to start hinting!
ReplyDeleteThe Xbox One is really versatile, it has something for everyone!
ReplyDeleteMy son is asking for an X Box 1 for Christmas. I will have to check at Best Buy for one.

Gotta love him, right?

I want the Curve TV too. Prolly not going to happen. Santa's got other financial obligations this year. ;)
DeleteMy husband loves the GPS too. It's probably one of the few gadgets that he uses all the time.
DeleteWe use our phones now for GPS, but this would make a great gift for my parents!
ReplyDeleteOh my hubs needs a new GPS too since his took us on a wild goose chase this past weekend. And since the staff at Best Buy is always knowledgeable, I can tell them what I'm looking for in my words & they can tell me what model would be perfect. :-)

ReplyDeleteThis season I could use an Xbox, PS4, and a new GPS! Best Buy would be the best place to get it from too!
