I ask for consumables, now. Food, paper goods (in quantity), drinks, party goods (paper plates, plastic cups, plastic flatware)... Stuff like that. When I moved into my first by-myself apartment, I told everyone I wanted consumables because I had too much stuff. I didn't have to buy toilet tissue for a year. A year. That was extremely nice. I should also point out that a friend of mine got married that year, and I used one of the bulk packages of the stuff for her bridal shower where we used the rolls to make "wedding dresses".
So here are some luxury consumables that I personally like: Body care products from Lush Fragrance-free dryer sheets Honey liqueurs Absinthe Sugar in the raw, or German rock sugar High-end loose tea (Teavana comes to mind) Ginger beer, the more exotic the better High-end steaks High-end fish steaks Pink Himalayan Salt Curry mix (the more exotic the better) Mochi hand-crafted soaps
