    Me and my fiance have been together for going on 8 years, been engaged for 2.5 yrs (wedding in 37 days!)

    For his 25th birthday this year (he's a comic book, superhero loving person) I bought spiderman balloons, a teddy bear holding a heart that said I love you, and Sinbad's new standup on dvd, the first Iron Man on blu-ray, and the Ocean movies on blu-ray. When you've been together so long it's hard to keep finding stuff. In previous years I've bought him an xbox (I've bought him each new one that's come out), video games, I bought him his weight bench one year. Try some gag gifts to make him laugh, or just make his favorite dinner in the nude ;-)

    I got my fiancee a masage for Christmas-he loved it (deep tissue-he has lots of knots in his back)

    I also got him a beer of the month membership...you can go more expensive (more months) or less (fewer months). He LOOOOVEED that. We did that for my dad too and he really enjoys it.

    What are his interests?

    video games (i have bought him systems, games, gift cards etc.)
    music (he has like 5 guitars and i bought him a bass one year) [thinking of this, i might buy him a stereo, we don't have one], he is acting lately like he is done with the concert stuff so no tickets
    movies=horror
    tv=cartoons like futurama, or comedic stuff like seinfeld

    edit: and he doesn't want a surprise party, i threw him one before and he said for sure he doesn't want one this year. so that is out.
