Adam - can we play this again?  
 
After reading so many discussions on things that people desire, and random acts of kindness, I thought well maybe we can make some wishes come true brandon!  
Here is how to play!  
 
make a post on here of a couple things that you want. They can be huge like a car, or something smaller like a jacket or socks or something that isn't materialized like you want a homecooked meal!  
 
Then go through the other peoples posts and see if you can perform a wish! Maybe you know of someone who is giving away a ladys dream dog, or maybe you have a copy of a book kicking around that you wont read and someone wants, or you can provide babysitting services to someone who just wants a night to themselves etc.... whatever it is! See if you can perform a wish, and lets start making dreams come true  
 
To perform a wish, simply message the person stating you have what they want. it is up to you to get the item to the person.  
 
Ready set, make some wishes!

Love this idea  
Only reason I reluctantly became a member  
Was to share and give …. what some on here were looking for  
Was none of my business when some on here were wanting monies for things I could share and give for free.  
There fore became a member  
Especially like the … wanted.... people looking for things that could not have paid or have little monies to pay. Or does someone have extras of this or that.  
Shared lots and WOW made me feel soooooo good. Even got hugs at times when people came to pick up. Biggest gift. rite there.

I think a lot of people have extra items that they know they will never use again, so it is a good opportunity to make a wish come true for somebody who is looking for that item.  
And it is so nice to find something you are looking for too.

Love this idea! I'll be looking to see if I can help anyone out  
 
I'm wishing for a microwave, and a washing machine!

I wish I could get my car paid off. I have a little left on it and it is hard on my budget as I am currently not working and I don't want to have to sell it because I need it because of my disability.

I could replace my window in living room

I would really like a job with a flexible schedule to support my family, I am a patient of dialysis and have to attend the hospital three times a week so it has been very hard to find a job with a flexible schedule and not very physical demanding. If anybody knows anything, I would really appreciate the info thanks!

City hall hires to stuff water bills and inserts into envelopes, once a month, for couple of days , sometimes only takes a day tho.  
Keep asking and applying till they need you.  
Sorry to say but this job is usually who u kno, to get on there. NO benefits cuz it is a temp position. They don't frown if u can't make it in at times.  
Good luck  
 
And then sometimes they may have other tasks that are very easyish.

But on other side  
I am wishing a good coat rack and also a stool that wouuls work for sitting at the kitchen counter with a round swival top  
 
Ty anyone and all

My wish is for a small portable dishwasher. I donated mine a couple years ago to someone who needed it more that myself. Now I'm sick a lot and in the hospital often, so my wish is for a portable dishwasher again. I can barely stand on my best of days, and so the dishes REALLY pile up now! I am going threw my things shortly to see what things I have so maybe I can grant some wishes too! Then I will read posts and start granting away! I LOVE THIS......it's got me all tingly all over.....I love giving and making others smile!  
My little boy (who is 11 years old, says HIS wish is for a laptop so that he can play his game without it crashing and freezing his older cell all the time. He says he has all kinds of Thomas the Train DIE CAST METAL train characters he'd like to give to smaller kids who's parents can't afford them, and hes got all kinds of kids books too he'd like to give to kids who like and want to read books!  
My boyfriend is desperately wishing for a job....ANY job. He applies for jobs daily and always get interviews, but never any calls back and he's been out of work for nearly 2 years now, it's really hitting us hard raising a small family on my medical benefits alone...! Those are our only wishes, we all sat down and chose 1 useful wish each....

My wish is for someone to teach me how to skin a deer and/or prepare hides. Always wanted to learn.

My wish is very tiny.  
 
I would like to find a base for a small christmas light bulb. The one missing inadvertently got thrown out with the broken bulb and now the one color in the light string won't work. I have replacement bulbs, but no base that fits.  
 
I found out that there are different sizes of bases through trying out a base from another string. I will post a picture of a bulb to give an idea of the type.  
 
If anyone can help...if you are throwing out a similar string of lights...I would gladly take it off your hands, or at least take that little piece.  
 
Thanks!

I have polysistic ovarian syndrome and I havent felt like a woman since I was a little girl. Mental health issues have always plagued me, my wish would be to find one of those machines that make hair thinner in parts of body that no woman wishes to have hair.  
I've been to laser hair removal clinics but being on eia I can't afford such treatments.  
It's been hard always feeling ugly. A laser hair removal machine that someone doesn't use anymore or even that I could make payments on would be a dream come true to me.  
I dont go outside in the summer because the sun makes all the hair on my face very visible. Life sucks sometimes but that would make it easier. Sorry for the long story. I watched a video today about opening up and sharing your insecurities to the world, so here I am. Thanks for reading.

If there is an institution (School) in Brandon that removes hair, they usually are looking for models to practice on, in turn ur hair removal is usually free. Can't steer u in the rite direction but I'm sure one of the schools may, a hair or estatician (sp) school, then ask if they can point u in the rite direction.  
 
Good luck. and PS as we age we lose that unwanted hair, …. shucks … later than sooner, ooh well.

I have light bulb ends if you still need flutterby.

I need to find a dryer in good working order.

Iam wishing for my neighbour to snow blow out my front walk when it snows - I hate doing that!!! Sometimes he does sometimes he doesn't.

I’d like a cricut air explore or cricut maker. Hoping I could make a little extra money and have fun while doing it. Thanks

In the Freebies section, there is a man in need of a warm winter coat. He has none.  
 
I would give him one if I had one. I know what it is like to be without a warm coat in the dead of winter.
