What's everyone bought there better halves this Christmas?
Bit stuck what to buy my new Mrs - or even "check the specs" post to ensure Christmas together doesn't end up being a one-off 
I've gone for:-
Christmas Jumper - seems the thing to do this year.
72 Colouring pencil set - she's very arty. They are quite posh ones, not Tesco own brand.
Boots - buying clothes without them present is a bit of a gamble but she wears the same style.
Bath Bomb Set - the set is from a boutique shop rather than online.
Adele Album - bought a few CDs for various people and shes gets Adele.
Selfie Stick - bought one for my daughter, been testing it in the office. It's quite amusing.
Feel like I need to get a couple more things though.
Perfume and jewellery were forbidden as she reckoned they are cop-out purchases. So I've forbade socks, aftershave and slippers (I'm not 70 FFS )
So, what are you buying/already bought your better half?
tl;dr - is my GF going to sack me as I've bought her a load of tat for Christmas?

Mine loves jewellery from Clogau Gold so I've got her some £250 earrings which I know will be a great surprise for her, lots of clothes from TopShop, a few bits from Ann Summers 
, some Urban Decay makeup and various bottles of BarryM nail varnish. She's lucky enough just to have me though 
.
No matter what they say about jewellery, they will always love sparkly jewellery. Mine loves anything sparkly... It depends what she's into really. Most love decent nail varnish too so that could be something to consider; just remember to buy the base/top coat too if you do

I have bought her nothing simply because whenever we want anything we just buy it.
Told her I will pay for something if she sees anything whilst in the shops.

But soon moved into a rented house with her new boyfriend (3 weeks actually).
I've had offers and "fun" (the wonders of Tinder and POF
), but keeping my cards close to my chest as I have 4 year old son to put first.So the positive is my dining room turned into the new, improved Rave Caveİ which my chavvy neighbours on the left don't like
