    MrWW bought my favourite present last year, 4 fresh figs. He knew I'd struggled getting some and it was annoying me so hunted them down, wrapped them up in a beautiful little box, cost about £2 but it showed he cared and thought about it. That's all I ask.

    Whatever you do, don't get her a f-ing alarm clock, even if it is a nice one. She'll still be pissed off at you 11 years later.

    Just sayin'.

    WOW worst gift ever.

    Also, if she likes BOOKS don't get her an e-reader......Some people like BOOKS.


    That's not the worst gift ever. My brother got my sister-in-law an epilator lol (probably spelled that wrong lol)

    What does she actually like? Not all women like makeup, shoes, jewelry, etc. for example for me a great gift would be books and house plants. A year's supply of my favorite lotion from Bath & Body Works. $100 iTunes gift card. Etc.

    Find out what she likes, then get her that.

    well this is my list for my husband:

    jo malone perfume
    marc jacobs rose gold watch
    zojirushi rice cooker
    google nexus 7 32gb

    and no he doesn't have to get them all, just one!
    but I know my husband won't get me anything off here... DON'T be like him. :)

    In my opinion, if she truly loves you then anything you give her, she will adore.

    Or a shower head...even though it was a fancy one, he still hasn't lived that one down and it's been 8 years.

    Ahhhhh, that's so sweet! Very very special!

    Psst! Dude, don't listen to this one. You'll end up buying the shower head below and she'll hate on you for years!

    False!! I love my husband but his gift picking abilities are turrible. Case in point, I got a snuggie for Christmas last year....
    And he got me a bracelet one year (I'm not huge on jewelry) and he says (i Promise that I didn't make this up) I was going to get you a different bracelet, It was really nice but it was very expensive. Soooo, ya. Don't do that

    Edited to add: He's gotten much better, that bracelet bit was in our first year of marriage, but the snuggie was just pure fail.
  • Flowers, with you dressed in a suit and asking for her to marry you will make it the best Christmas ever for her " HANDS DOWN "

    to the dude who posted the above message - can you have a word with my fiancé please and give him some romance lessons!!!!

    Hon, it very much depends on what she's into. I always try and get my creative hat on when buying/making gifts for anyone. If she's anything like 75% of ladies out there then she's been dropping subtle hints for gift ideas since July. you just need to think and pick them up! x
