One of my best friend’s most cherished possessions is her Nativity Scene.  She has many pieces in her collection, but she’s always looking to add more.  She can create a Giftster list specifically for the items she would like for her collection.  And if you’re a collector, you can do the same.

So what about the items that you may already have in your collection?  This is when I would create a “do not give me” list.  You can create a list of the items you already have in your collection, title it “Whats-Its I Already Have”, and in the description let people know where they can find the items you do have.

You can do this, too, for books, video games, cooking items…whatever your preference.  And remember – the more detailed your list, the better informed your group will be to do their shopping!
