This year I want to buy myself something. I have done all my shopping for the kids and there are some things that I wouldn’t mind Santa bringing down my chimney this year.

For those that like to play games, the Xbox One is definitely a great choice! This system connects consumers unlike any other device and enables access to the latest TV shows and movies through your favorite apps. You can also play some of the popular titles like Halo, Assassin’s Creed and Call Of Duty, Madden 15,  NBA 2K15 and more!

For those that like music, here are three great JBL gift ideas…

1. JBL Charge 2 – Between the twin passive radiators for deep bass, the massive 6000mAh battery and the hands-free conference speakerphone the key benefit is the Bluetooth Social Mode which allows up to three different users to take their turns to play their own playlists on a single speaker.
2. JBL Flip 2 – Aside from the dual performance-tuned JBL drivers and a built-in bass port, the key benefit of the JBL Flip 2 is the SoundClear echo and noise cancellation combined with the state-of-the-art microphone system to pickup calls on the speaker.
3. JBL Reflect Earbud Headphones – Offers an ergonomic design, 5 hour rechargeable battery, reach of about 40 feet and has built-in magnets to help keep your buds on standby without loosing the cables.

Best Buy also has a great selection of  GPS navigation units. They have the TomTom and Garmin GPS units that would make a great gift for anyone that likes to travel. Best Buy currently has these three that I recommend:

1. TomTom Go 50s – 5″ touchscreen with advanced lane guidanceDrive with TomTom for the lifetime of your device.  Always drive with the latest maps and also see some buildings and landmarks in stunning 3D.
2. Garmin 52LM – 5″ display with maps of 49 U.S states plus lifetime map updates with spoken turn-by-turn directions. Offers lane assist with junction view, displays speed limit and accurate time arrival.
3. Garmin 2597LMT –  5″ display with maps of 49 U.S states plus lifetime map updates with spoken turn-by-turn directions. Offers lane assist with junction view, displays speed limit and accurate time arrival.

These are just some of the great gift ideas from Best Buy. What is on your wish list this year?

I received a gift card to facilitate this post. No monetary compensation as been received and all thoughts are my own.

When it comes to finger foods I happen to LOVE boneless wings. It is one of those foods that I don’t often make at home but something I like to order when I eat out. Boneless wings can be a great appetizer and you can definitely make a meal out of them.

Since I really enjoy eating at Sonic I was excited when I found out that they recently added some boneless chicken wings to their menu.

SONIC’s new Boneless Chicken Wings are made with 100 percent all white-meat chicken and are available in one of three mouth-watering sauces, each loaded with bold flavor: Buffalo, Asian Sweet Chili or Barbeque.

Since my local Sonic is closed right now because they are remodeling I took a 45 minute drive to the next closest Sonic to try all three of these boneless wings. A couple years ago I was introduced to the Asian Zing boneless wings at Buffalo Wild Wings and I LOVED them. I normally would have normally ordered the Buffalo flavor but glad I learned about something even better. I do have to admit that I was anxious to try the Asian Sweet Chili flavor at Sonic to see how they compare.

Buffalo Wild Wings Asian Zing Boneless Wings

Sonic’s Asian Sweet Chili Boneless Wings

When my boneless wings arrived in their trays all three flavors looked delicious. Of course I tried the Asian Sweet Chili wings the first with the Buffalo being my second choice and lastly the Barbeque flavor. I liked all three flavors with the Asian Sweet Chili being my favorite. I shared with my kids my two daughters that said that the Barbeque was their favorite out of the three.

Sonic’s Buffalo Boneless Chicken Wings

Comparing the boneless wings at Sonic and with Buffalo Wild Wings I think they are both delicious and a great value. I think that at both places you receive about the same amount of chicken but Buffalo Wild Wings is a little more expensive because you are in a more restaurant style environment whereas at Sonic, most of the time you are eating in your vehicle.

Sonic’s Barbeque Boneless Chicken Wings

While I really love the Asian Zing flavor at Buffalo Wild Wings, the Asian Sweet Chili Sauce at Sonic tastes just as good if not better and is less expensive. Right now you can order a tray of these delicious boneless chicken wings at Sonic for only $3.99.
