What are you buying your partner this Xmas?

[Jackass]

Havn't started thinking bout it? Well you better!

I'm gonna get her one of those pink iPod nano things and a shiny bracelet of some kind...I think that's pretty good, but we were joking around last night about what we were going to get eachother and she said "I don't mind what you get me, I just want something really thoughtfull"....

Hmmm....still trying to come up with something else more personal

Moved down 'ere (redirect still in AH). A few people have suggested in other threads gift vouchers for a day in a salon or spa, I know my wifeh would love that.

Hmnn well I went nuts on her last year and I was warned not too this year. We're saving for some land abroad, so can't go crazy.

She mentioned she wanted a really good leather handbag, in the region of €150 plus. I was also thinking about a voucher for somewhere like Peter Marks as she's always threatening to go to the hairdresser!

I know that it was an early present, but when the tickets came on sale for Bruce Springsteen months ago, we missed out on our chance to get tickets.
The b/f is a huge fan, so I bought tickets on ebay and took him to it 2 weeks ago. He is still thanking me every day for it, saying it was the best present ever. The tickets weren't that cheap but it was so worth it.
The concert was amazing by the way!

We had decided not to go mad buying presents for eachother and buy a laptop and TV for both of us in the January sales.

Not quite sure what to get him yet as I've been busy getting santa presents but I normally top up his main present with some beer and fine wines and sometimes clothes. I'm going to Cork on a shopping trip this weekend so I might see something that would appeal to him.

I've been looking at beer or wine making kits, also massage chair.
He's a badminton fanatic so maybe a new racket or trainers.

Im at a loss. The guy has everything. I-Pod, decks, DVD's, CD's, flat screen, surround sound, laptop, full set of golf clubs, season tickets

He said not to buy him clothes or shoes as I will probably get it wrong and he likes to try them on. Doesnt wear jewellry at all and doesnt read

Think I'll get him socks. That or a huge box with nothing inside

Any suggestions ?

Well my g/f just told me she's getting me bungee jumping vouchers. I'm delighted to be honest. Its right at the top of my to do list along with skydiving. It may not be to everyones taste but its perfect for me ! If you think he'd be interested in something like that try http://www.topgifts.ie/ you may find some unusual ideas there. Hope this helps.

For her, theres a silversmith near me who makes pieces of unique jewlery so I was thinking of a something along those lines. I have a few other smaller bits and pieces for her too.

This will be impossible.

Have you no ideas at all, Tar? Surely you must know something, anything that can give us some clue as to what she might like.

Don’t have a partner yet but I would give that special person anything that would make them happy. Indeed I would. Well, as long as it is within reason…

She likes nothing! Probably will read this post too. :P

If she reads the post hopefully there will be a very big hint tonight.

Does she wear make-up? would some very luxurious cosmetics do the trick. How about booking a weekend away for both of you?

I would love some jewellery but I don't think I'll get it. I've a birthday between now and christmas so the poor guy has double trouble.

Tar.Aldarion

She doesn't wear jewelry and only wears vegan friendly makeup which she already has. Thinking cap is on. Just got a grant of a grand... :P
