I keep a gift list running all year @ Amazon. Family & friends know it is there if they're really looking for something. Otherwise, a Gift Card from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, BestBuy, or an iTunes Gift Card are always a welcome gift -- and the only time in the year I can really get something for myself guilt-free, as it were, since I can't really convert it to cash to pay bills or buy groceries or something I know I need more than another gizmo.
I don't think there's anything crass about a wish list nor impersonal about a gift card.
Maybe it's a Mars/Venus thing.
