I say if yer that picky about gifts, insist on cash or gift certificates. If someone gives you other than that then they obviously don't love you and you should tell them to get out of your life. I mean, if they can't get you what you want, what good are they.

I got lucky with gear this year. Our family always exchanges gift idea lists and I was short on ideas so reluctantly dropped my REI wish list in the email. It had a number of things on it in price range, some I was just leaving on there to keep track of stuff I wanted. I hinted I mostly wanted the Katadyn hiker pro filter and the aquamira drops. I ended up with those, a double set (but keeping cause they're cheap) of flint firestarters. Will use one for camping and one in my daypack for an emergency if I get stranded overnight while on a dayhike. The real surprise was getting the Opsrey Aether 60L pack I had on there since that's not cheap. It was of course in the exact size/color I was after. Totally unexpected and now I'm basically set for my first backpacking trip as far as gear. Just need a bear can.
