A Christmas Story Fans, I need your help
As one of DH's stocking stuffers I got him a Little Orphan Annie decoder. I want to include a message, should it be the one from the movie or one I write myself?

I like the idea of including a message, but if he's a big fan of the movie, he'll probably figure out what it says right away, so maybe do your own.

I like the idea of using the one from the movie & then putting your own little note at the end.
What a cute idea.

I would write your own, "drink your Ovaltine" doesn't really work today.

I think it would be funny if you did one yourself.
Please tell me where you got this. My uncle would love it

Re: A Christmas Story Fans, I need your help
I got one of those decoders when I ordered the leg lamp. i never thought of putting it in a stocking. That is a great idea.
Maybe hide one gift and have its location be the code, hide a jar of ovaltine with it

I got it with the leg lamp. He's a HUGE fan of the movie, we have to watch it every Christmas Eve on the TBS 24 hour loop, plus we have the DVD. And a Ralphie bobblehead and a bunch of the ornaments. I didn't tell him I was getting the lamp and when he saw it he got so excited.
I ordered it from here: Red Rider Leg Lamps

Does he have a favorite alchoholic drink? You could make it:
BESURETODRINKYOURBUDWEISER (or Absolut, Jose Cuervo, Jack Daniels, according to taste)

I secretly ordered the lamp too!! I made him go outside and then I turned it on. He has only seen the movie once so I was glad he laughed when he saw it and remembered what it was from, otherwise he would have thought I was a complete and utter nutter.
Oh he said the lamp has vericose veins because you can see the wires in it

Re: A Christmas Story Fans, I need your help
I bought DH the leg lamp last year and he loved it!
I would do your own message, and I will be ordering the decoder for his stocking, thanks for the idea!

I agree but would add that one of his gifts should be Ovaltine.
