Christmas Ideas with Military Surplus Auctions!

10.31.2012 by Girl on Fire // 1 Comment


Can you believe we are about to come full force into the Christmas Season? I have not started shopping! Have you already started your shopping?

The kids are easy, they are usually happy with whatever I choose for them. The husband is an entirely different story. This is the time of year I start browsing the Internet for ideas.

I came across military surplus auctions and it sparked an idea! With a military auction I can find all sorts of things that will interest my husband as well as the other men in my life like my dad and grandpa.

Shoot, I even found some things I liked for myself on their Facebook page. I would love to have a new gun of my own! That revolver is pretty awesome, but I would prefer an automatic like a 9mm sig, or something similar. I have never been much a revolver person.

That military auction Facebook page has a lot to look at and a lot to choose from. It could be a fun way to shop for the hard to buy for men in my life…and maybe some of the women too. I bet my mom would get into some of it.

I bet I could even find some great things to use for our camping trips! What about you? Have you used any of these services? Have you bought military gear for gifts? Preparing for the zombie apocalypse? Haha! Well, maybe we don’t need to prepare for zombies, but we might want to think about getting ourselves geared up for the unknown. More ideas here all over the Internet!
