As title, my other half keeps saying she doesn't really want anything, nothing she needs etc and this year I am finding it a real struggle to find anything worth while......

So looking for some ideas here guys, what you all getting our other half this x-mas?

Seeing as my other half is male, another Guitar to add to his multiple collection, no doubt

StickyMicky

mine asked for a nintendo ds and a load of games

my mrs wants some £7 perfume and a blender to jiuce things with

as we havent much money (insurance renewal), we said we'll spend £50 on each other, and just get immediate family members gifts.

never been a person to go and spunk £100's at xmas.

(except the £4k on my scoob last december *hic*)

Laptop..... She drives me crazy trying to get on my computer.

Make her a christmas card.

Buy her Diamonds.

Give her one from Santa.

We don't bother buying each other pressies as we usually go away for Christmas which we call a present to ourselves This year though the other half is working Christmas Day through to New Year's Eve so a holiday is out of the question

We're still not bothering with pressies though

As my other half is in Argentina for three months over xmas I am getting her bugger all

OllyK

Call me an old romantic, but I'm getting her a new vacuum cleaner and a jumbo pack of dusters

I'm going to surprise my other half with a new Steam Iron from TESCO, excellent value at £5 ..... and, to add to that, a new Ironing Board Cover (when one comes into the Charity Shop).

I have noticed her mumbles about her old Iron and how long it takes to warm up on the AGA Plate, the Ironing Board is tatty (she might get a new Board for her Birthday) - but, in the meantime, the cover is thread bare - so I may treat her to that.

Lee247

A new cover like this one, Pete

Bit silly to reply on here as he'll read it. But I agree with Choc that we don't spend huge amounts on each other. 50 quid limit etc. When you've got kids, buying for each other isn't quite as important.

bought my missus a nintendo wii, some games, radley handbag, slippers, books, cd's, gold chain, ring shoe, pyjamas, hair appointment, trainers, chocolate and perfume, love spending money at christmas to see peoples faces when they open their pressies.

havnt got the fiantest idea what she's got me though

Clarebabes

I want one of those though!

pslewis

She sees me everyday - no need for 'Plastic-Man' when she has the 'Real-Deal'

She wants a man that can strip a car down, without namby-pamby rubber gloves, a man who can lift an engine out without a hoist, a man who can out-wit most on the planet, a man who can eat 4 QuarterPounders without flinching, a man who has wealth ....................... and when I find him I shall present him to her - until then, I'm as close as it gets

As the wife is working all day xmas day and boxing day, we've agreed to get a few little things and then go sales shopping for the anything larger.

I can't wait though, so probably buy her a new watch

davegtt

I used to prefer to spend something on the house as a together gift than individual gifts.

This year though, the new misses will be getting a guitar I reckon lol... Shes been on about one for the last couple of months... Romantic eh

mrtheedge2u2

I will probably treat her to a years subscription of Razzle.

StickyMicky

on the other half, mine got me a great big dolby/dts 5.1 surround sound system

it was deliverd to work, couldnt fit it in the car so had to unbox it, couldnt be arsed to box it back up at home so i got it early LOL

The Zohan

she'll get a couple of biatch-slaps and be grateful for them!

miss*scoobygav555*

Gav wants one of those new ipod touch things!?

Pregnant I hope

Would advise "giving it to her" either before or after the others unwrap their prezzies, and certainly not at the dinner table.

sti-04!!

Also make sure no relatives are present at "said" time of "giving it to her"

Brendan Hughes

Thanks for the advice. I was answering the question "getting" - it didn't say "giving"

fitzscoob

Actually I am a bit concerned this year.

New girlfriend for the first time in 10 years, so I would like to get her something nice, especially as I have no mortgage payments until I buy another place!

Been with her for just about 8 months or so and things are very good

I'm thinking about getting her one of these, can any of the ladies on the forum take a look and let me know their thoughts?

Goldsmiths Sirena 18CT Yellow Gold 0.25ct Diamond Pendant

Pay no mind to the price, I have a friend that works for the company so will be getting a discount of sorts.

She is 23 years old, and only really likes yellow gold.

davegtt

Very nice Fitz, although sod spending that much on someone Ive been seeing less than a year I'm keeping it fun this year with 4 or 5 nice gifts that lighten the mood

Brendan Hughes

For an 8mth girlfriend, you'd better get a pretty hefty discount!

Sonic'

If Donna could drive I would have got her a Sat Nav, a crook lock and mobile phone, and cook book

So when I am in the pub, I can phone her on her mobile, she can come collect me (find me with the Sat Nav) park the car up, fit the crook lock, then collect me and have something nice cooked for me when she brings me back

Clarebabes

Yes, very true.

I would be angry at Dave for spending so much on me when we've got house stuff to buy!
