I am possibly going to a crystal / gem show tomorrow. I can't afford expensive gem stones, but...

Could you use a muscle rub? (We make ours on the lunar cycle and it has menthol, wintergreen, habanero, cayenne, olive oil, st. john's wort, arnica, beeswax, calendula, and ginger. It tingles. We call it "Thunder Butter". If you have really really super sensitive skin, I would recommend against it. And don't take a hot shower or open all of your pores before using it.) sure

do you like to take baths? if so, do you like oils, salts, things that fizz, all of the above, none of the above? I like baths, but oils are hard to clean up. Salts are nice as are fizzy things, though I have to be careful because my girly bits are sensitive, lol.
What style/make/etc of phone do you have? What about size of tablet? Laptop? Would you like decals, skins, or cases for any of these? Samsung Galaxy 3 phone, 2 kindles (a Fire and an old Keyboard).

What are some things you do NOT want to receive? really, I don't need knick knacks or stuff that needs dusting. I don't need makeup, I have plenty. Jewelry is great, but I don't get to leave the house much anymore so feel kinda bad about getting new ones.

Is there a new type of #divination you've been meaning to try, and if so, are you looking for the tool, a book on the subject, or both? I do tarot and anything related to that would be great.

For those who watch certain movies every year for Halloween, what are those movies, whether horror or not? Any favorite horror movies that aren't necessarily on the annual-viewing list? How do you feel about fan-made merch for these movies? I try to watch Nightmare Before Christmas, Young Frankenstein, and Rocky Horror! And anything from those is welcome. I caution however that I don't have much time for cleaning with full time caregiving, so knick knacks and dust catchers, while appreciated, will probably be put away so they don't have to be dusted. lol

Do you live near a Trader Joe's? If not, are you interested in trying any of the numerous Pumpkin goodies they come out with this time every year? yes but it might as well be on the moon.
