Christmas list: Help your spouse out!
My wife is asking for a list so I thought maybe this could help someone else out. Any RV/aviation gifts under $100 out there that are nice to have? Like upgrades to RV parts, blood/oxygen sensors, apps or whatever else that you have your eye on.

I'll be checking the list of suggested items here frequently as I have no idea what to ask for since my repeated request for a jear let (Lear Jet) has fallen on deaf ears.

Are there things less than $100 out there?
Seems every time I buy something for my RV, it takes at least 3 digits.

Here's another idea for a stocking stuffer:

Vic Syracuse Productions has a great stocking stuffer video for $20. This is a great video flying over Alaska countryside and glaciers. NOT boring!

Black Friday?
I hope this doesn't veer the topic too much, but I think they are in the same line.
Does anyone know of any great Black Friday deals? In years past I have focused on Best Buy, Fry's Electronics etc. But now that I have an RV it is plane, plane, plane and more plane!!!!!!
Come on you old salts, where do the Newbies go after Thanksgiving?

You mentioned Best Buy and Fry's. While they have great deals, and I have been lured to them as well, consider spending more and shopping at a locally owned business this year. You may end up with less stuff, but the customer service and the product quality will be worth it.
I was just putting together a gift page for our website so if anyone has suggestions from us let me know either here or directly at mike.toolman(at)gmail.com.
One thing on the list will be the stainless tie down ring.
