My aunts every Christmas gets the same bloody sweaters year after year which are expense and I dont ever wear. My gf goes over the top and gets me the hottest electronic gadget which is a waste of money. My dad usually get me the ugliest ties which is probably illegal to wear at work place anways. My buys me give 50 bucks which I end up buying her a present with. No body acutally get me what I want. Right now I need a shredder.

Heck yeah!!! I start dropping hints early!....I hate people wasting money on things that are not ever going to be used.

I see nothing wrong with hints, in fact, some may appreciate it. If they can afford it, someone will get what you really want. The ones unable to afford whatever you ask for, can get you whatever they want, but at least you`ll get something useful out of the whole deal. Hint away. I only wish some people I buy for would do the same, instead of me racking my brain for a gift they don`t want or need. A total waste of time, energy and money.

well what i do is email my mom or a sibling a huge list of things I want. they choose what they waant to get me, take it off the list and send it on to someone else. That way I never get the same gift twice, I get what I want and it's still a surprise so it works out. that's what I would suggest

All of my family members make lists for each other. If its not your families custom to make a list, then it might be wierd to do so, but if I was related to you I would want to make sure I got you a gift that you would actually like and USE.

its not much, but be straight up. it seems like there kind of bombarding you with useless stuff that goes to waste and may even be a bit frustrating

Never hint. It's like asking for a present, or more like begging. If you really want something then save your pennies to buy it for yourself.
