Wifes / Girlfriend Xmas Gifts

[shoozleboy]

Mine gets whatever she asks for.... it's the best way to keep a woman happy... she doesn't ask for fantasy items like cars and houses and such - this year, it's a Gore-Tex coat by Columbia (Done), season pass to HersheyPark for her and the oldest girl (done), new pair of ice skates (done)....

oh, and I got her the picture package that she wanted of our newest girl born in April of this year.... she didn't ask for it, I have been saving it as a surprise gift.... she'll be tickled on that one.

And my oldest daughter and I went out and got her a couple of her 'kitchen fairy' collectible figurines from the Hallmark store... she's been collecting those for a while now... she doesn't know about those either....

[Capmaster]

Yep. You got it right schoozle. Most married men find that out.

Get her everything she wants. If you don't have the money, start saving up sooner so you will. If it means leaving out the gift for your mom ..hey, you don't have to live with your mom

If there's no way you will have the money, selling your blood will get you a double saw-buck for each pint, and if she wants a car, kidneys fetch about $10K on the organ exchange

You can't put a price on domestic tranquility

You have it easy, if you only have to buy for your wife or girlfriend - am I the only one who buys gifts for each of my brother's wives and all their kids


They're not really that hard to buy for though - movies, music cds, gift certificates work.


All they usually get me are those lottery scratch off cards

I'm lucker, my siblings live in NZ and UK. And her siblings live in Canada.

I have been given a $20 limit on expenditure, so I brought a cook book from the Australian Institute of sport for $30 (shes sporty). Spent almost a $1K on the kids, so the budget doesn't make sense. Need to get some stocking fillers.

She wants me to get a DVD burner, but I can't count that as a present.

I just bought an Epson R320 for the wife. Her old Canon ran out of ink, so I just decided to replace the whole printer.

I can't wait to play with it!

[Capmaster]

I can't wait to play with it!

Nooo ...I'll pass on this one

Why?

Whether it's the printer, the wife, or myself, I can't wait to play with it!

Why wait? It seems silly

[tekkieman]

Why wait? It seems silly

Because "packages" don't get unwrapped until Christmas morning.

Then maybe you don't "unwrap" your package as often as I do mine .....


....wait what were we talking about again?

Please keep your package-unwrapping habits to yourSELVES

Hope you also got her something to make her feel good about herself, else it will be the wiggling finger for you.

I'm sure the vision in my head is not what you meant.....

My wife has bought her christmas gifts for herself for years. I am little pissed the the little woman right now. Dont know if this is how it is in any of y'alls familiesm but I spent $140 at the black friday sale (really $40 after rebates). My wife is looking through the cc receipt and starts bitching about how much money I spent. I then look a little further down on the cc statement and find a billion Michael's and JoAnn's and Beauty supply charges that blow the snot out of any charges I have made. I make a comment about the $40 I spent and the $400 she has spent and she then wants to drop it. What a bitch!!!! Tis the season to knock her ass out of a fast moving vehicle....

[macleod]

Bitter, part of one....

Where did you find that, BJ?

Ah the wiggling finger must have different translations in different countries. Meaning is that the female is holding one finger in the air pointed approximately in the direction of the male and it is waved from side to side at the same time as the female communicates her negative feelings towards the male. Often communicated in situations like;
- 11pm at night. "You said you were only having one beer with the boys from work"
- When annarversy forgotten (the day after). "You Bas**** I hate you"
- For no apparrent reason. "************************" [if he doesn't know why I mad with him, well I ain't going to tell him]

But be warned, never defend yourself with facts "You told me not to buy you a present".

So boys, the moral of the story, is don't buy anything useful, like a DVD burner or subscription to the sports channel or even a wheel barrow. Buy something that makes her feel good about herself. Now can anyone tell me what that is?

Me and Ms Morloc have bought eachother one half of a red bed spread at IKEA - our cats had clawed the old one to ribbons. Fearfully unromantic - all our money and efforts go to our daughter... :-\

It was something I'd buy if money grew on trees. Or, you hadn't heard of Criterion?
