    I'm sure most of us have a long list of things we want, but man, I'm drawing blanks for the wife this year. It seems the wife and I are guilty of buying what we want when we want it, which leaves little to be had by Christmas time. I keep going to the staple jewelry, but I'm trying to be different this year.

    So, what have you guys come up with so far? Maybe @thumper7799 can chime in?

    Well @louscrw my wife and I are guilty of the same thing We buy what we want when we want it. So this year we aren't really getting anything for each other. Just my kids. Sorry I wasn't more helpful. I think you're jewelry idea can't go wrong. Women always like that kinda stuff. Am I lame' for not getting her something?

    Ha, yeah I have the same problem, we buy what we want. Then my wife isn't normal and want a lot of things either. On top of that she's really not that into a lot of jewelry, which I guess can be a plus! What I got her so far are some Morimoto fog lights for her Tacoma, and then a pair of boots that she's been wanting. Not sure what else, ha.

    Can't go wrong with shoes, purse, perfume, watch, etc.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Buy her a ticket to Vegas and a ticket to one of the shows at the Bellagio or Wynn in Las Vegas, that'd be a cool gift.

    Do what my wife does...say "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Birthday" while I am standing in the checkout line getting what I want or after the UPS man drops it on the doorstep and then give me a card.

    My wife told me exactly what she wants for Christmas this year. Fucking amazing. I hate shopping for her if i don't know what to get.
    What she wants is one of the best knives i could find for cutting/chopping things like potatoes. The knives we have now are dull out of the box. I went with Cutco for the lifetime warranty.
    She also wants a really good saute pan. Probably the most used pan and the mediocre non stick ones look like crap in a few months. So i went with stainless steel All-Clad.
    She also wants Denver Broncos leggings.

    Done.

    #2 was a good idea....I just placed an order through canvasworld.com and got free shipping thanks to Howard Stern.
    #3 is also a good idea, but I have already bought her several handguns bc I'm romantic like that. LOL

    I listen to the hints all year and Christmas morning ill put it where I think she'd put it vs wrapping it.A few pleasant surprises around her environment. The best gift you can give her is to let her know your listening

    When you have 3 kids in a demanding school, and you spend every waking hour with the kids, a few hours of adult conversation and have someone serve you food you didn't have to cook yourself, goes a long way. Maybe OP doesn't have same situation, but my wife would truly enjoy that. If you were my wife I would just buy you ammo :rofl:

    Sorry about that :rofl:^^^


    Anywho. What I did this year was any time my girlfriend was like "I want blah blah" I pulled out my phone and wrote it down. Then I came up with some stuff on my own.

    Got her a new purse, roku for her apartment, some candles, an essential oil infuser, a couple other little odds and ends and then I'm making this dog paw print/shadow box with a picture of our dog for her to take back to school.

    Going to take a better picture later with a good back ground
