For the past few years I have struggled to find my wife something for Christmas. We have been married for 27 years and pretty much have all the stuff we "need" and most of what we "want".
So how's about a thread for those of us struggling with gift ideas to ask our THT brethren.
So if you are struggling go ahead and post:
What the person you are buying for likes to do.
Price range (not total spend but what each gift's range should be).
And let's see the suggestions.
I'll go first.
The missus likes to: work out every morning, play tennis, eat out, entertain at home (groups of 5 couples), read, walk the dog for miles, is into her children (all at school/college). She has an SUV. Boating style is pleasure boating. She reads for the blind at the local NPR raidio station and runs the SCRIP program at school.
Range: $100-200, with one big gift if suitable.
Let's hear them - suggestions and requests for suggestions.

For one of the "holidays" Christmas, B-Day, Valentines, Annv. I usually get mine a whole day at a beauty spa/ salon. Nails, toes, massage. All the crap women like.

Menzies,
You left out one critical datum....what message do you want the gift to carry?
It could be "I cherish you above all the stars in the heavens...nay...above my own life"
or it could be
"It's December, so I have to give you SOMETHING"
or anything in between.

We generally don't buy each other anything for Christmas, we have Christmas all year long....if we need it or want it we just go and buy it. Per say there is nothing left to buy for under the tree come Christmas time. But in saying that, sometime before the 25th we will go and buy ourselves some new Christmas decorations....dolls or what nots....things to fancy up the house in the Christmas spirit.
