I'm stuck. I had loads of great ideas, but then have been stolen used by other family members Hmm

So far he has a belt, wallet and 2 graphic novels Hmm he likes gadgets, superheroes, has an xbox (not that he gets on it much anymore with a f/t job).

Just looking for some fun ideas - have around £60 left to spend.

I've bought my dh a small poster of his all time favourite film and framed it for his home office. Also bought him a DVD copy of the film as he only has an ancient VHS copy. They have excellent marvel hero wrapping paper in primark of all places.

I'm stuck with dh too, have bought him a book so far, going to get him some lounge pants/pj bottoms as im fed up with him wearing his old jogging bottoms around the house, might get him some of those 'touch screen gloves as its cold where he works. Not sure what else to get him as theres nothing he really wants Sad. Men are so hard to buy for.

For some ideas, I've got my DH:

New karate suit (can you get him something for his hobby/new Xbox game?)
cinder toffee and choc eclairs (does he have a favourite sweet? maybe retro ones? A hamper of sweets if he has a sweet tooth)
Discovery channel history box set DVD (is there a marvel box set or something?)
The new Bernard Cornwall novel (you have this one covered)
CKOne cologne (his fav scent)
Family guy socks (you have clothing covered)
Nivea toiletries giftset

That's enough for DH, but other good ideas I've used in the past is a Designers at Debenhams scarf (nice Jasper Conran one), nice chutney's, his favourite tipple, selection pack of real ales.

How about a set of Superhero Comic Cuff Links ,Keychain, Mug, Framed Picture (if you could find some obscure corner to hang it) etc etc - notonthehighstreet have some nice stuff (search Comic) but look also on
E-Bay and see if you can find something ...

Try the dotcom giftshop for unusual gift ideas which arent too pricey.

Alternatively, you could buy the Cineworld Christmas gift box for £20. For the price, you get 2 3D cinema tickets and vouchers for x 2 drinks, x 2 Galaxy chocolates & 1 regular popcorn. That way you get to benefit too assuming he will take you of course!
