Okay, have a $100 gift card to MF, but don't know what to get...

...my mom gave me a gift card to MF for my birthday. But for the life of me, I don't know what to get with it.

I'm not GAS-ing for anything, (GASP), except maybe the new MXR Bass Compressor, but MF isn't selling it for some reason.
Don't need a new bass or amp.
My pedalboard is complete.
Don't need strings, cables, picks, straps, straplocks, stands.
Don't need a cleaner/polisher, metronome, or headphones.
Don't need a recording interface.

I do like books, especially those on learning funk, but I have 4 of them and don't really need anymore.

The only thing on my wishlist is the JDI Passive DI, but I can't quantify buying it right now, seeing how my band is on hiatus and we need a new drummer.

So, any other ideas?

If it doesn't have an expiration date, put it away until something breaks and you have to replace it.

You could always mail it to one of your fellow TBers, namely me

I know its probably burning a hole in your pocket but be patient.

That's the most practical thing. But my mom wants me to get something 'cause it was my birthday and I didn't get anything "tangible." I may just take a picture of a pedal I already own and e-mail it to her. Just a little white lie, and I'm sure I'll have a use for it down the road.

Just curious if there was anything else out there that I was missing that would be really useful, that I hadn't thought have. Oh, I also have the string winder/cutter and of course, the most crucial piece of equipment ever made, the clamp on cup holder for my mic stand!
