You get a trip to Zonko's. When you get to the store you find out that it was closed and you were supposed to be there yesterday. Sorry, no refunds.
I wish for a nice pair of socks (a la Dumbledore)

you are granted your socks, but when you put them on, you discover holes all in them. Also, they radiate a very strong (and stinky) smell.
I wish for a golden dragon

You get a golden dragon, but he breathes fire all over himself and melts himself down into a runny golden wad.
I wish for a nice mug of cocoa.

Dobby comes bustling with your mug of cocoa, but when you take it in you sip it, you find that it is burning hot and in the process you spill it over your new set of robes. Spilling Dobby and the over-hot cocoa, you have to go change.
I wish for the full collection of chocolate frog cards.

(At least Dobby was injured in the process. )
You get the full collection of chocolate frog cards, but when you look at the the witches and wizards are never in their pictures because they are not interested in hanging out with you.
I wish for Winky to go to an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting.

Winky goes to the Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting, but just as she's starting to feel better about herself Dobby bursts in to show her the new odd socks he's decided to give her and she bursts into tears and stops going to them.
I wish for Trelawny to start making accurate predctions all the time.

Trelawney begins to make accurate predictions, but they all involve in one way or another, the injuries of yourself and fellow students. So now you're paranoid of injuring yourself, and watching every step you take. I wish Dobby would do his duties in a tux. (like a butler!)

Dobby gets a tux and does his work as a butler, but after a while the fancy clothes go to his head and he ends up saying that he is too good for any job and quits.
I wish for a private performance by the Weird Sisters.

Your private performance is granted, but your wish-granter mis-heard you and instead had the Beard Sisters perform. Originating from the heart of Louisiana, three sisters by the names of Billie-Jo-Bob, Betty-Lou, and Sheila are known for their country-folk-bluegrass tunes and the real beards they've been growing since the age of 7. Enjoy the show! I wish for a kelpie.

You read many books about kelpies and decide that your best bet is the Loch Ness Monster. So you travel to good ol' Scotland to try and catch it, wondering if it will fit in the pool in your backyard. But when you arrive at the lake you find a sign saying that you can't get any closer because Nessy is in a very weird mood and may be sick. Since it appears to be the only kelpie left around, you have to return home empty-handed.
I wish for a leprechaun.

Your wish is granted, and you receive this leprechaun. But after three weeks of his/her little pranks, fake money, and lymrics that make no sense, you decide to give him to your mom. Your mom is delighted, dresses him up as a French Maid, and makes him "clean" house. He/she ends up blowing your house to smithereens...
I wish for the potion used to bring photographs to life... was the name of it ever mentioned? i remember colin creevey getting excited about it, but i dont recall the name being mentioned...?

No I don't think we ever learnt its name.
Another Hogwarts students who happens to be a couple of years older than you has heard of your wish and she gives you some of the same potion which she had brewed for an extra credit assignment for Potions. Unfortunately, when you wash your photos with the potion she gave you, you find that all it does is cause the photo to crumble like ash.
I wish for a new peacock quill.

You get a new peacock quill. However, after having pulled it out of the peacock, the peacock turns around and pecks you, and you are mobbed by hundreds of peacocks all pecking and attacking you until you relinquish the quill.
I wish for a remembrall.

You buy a remembrall from an antique shop you encounter in Hogsmeade. Strangely enough you never noticed it before. When you're back at Hogwarts you decide to test it out but it starts glowing green instead of red, and keeps doing so for the rest of the evening. The next day, and several days after that it keeps doing the same. So when the next Hogsmeade trip comes you go to the same shop except that the shop is no longer there. In its place is a burnt field. Later you learn from Madam Rosmerta that the owner of the shop was a fraud selling faulty objects.
I wish for a book on Advanced Charms.

You buy a book on "Advanced Charms" from Flourish and Blotts, and feeling incredibly pleased with your day's shopping you go home and get yourself a drink and open the book......only to realise that all the pages of it are blank.
I wish for a Golden Snitch.
