Useful husband birthday present?

DH birthday in 10 days, I'm stuck with what to get him. It's his 49th.
Useful stuff is the only thing that works with him.
The last two things that were good were a Chillies bottle, and a key finder because he's always losing his keys.

What useful husband stuff can I get him?

What is useful for your DH?

(No tools because he's a builder and has an extensive stash already).

Smart watch? Not sure how practical that is for a builder.

NoDontLookAtMeImShy · 05/09/2019 12:14

No not for a builder.
He doesn't have anything like that.
He breaks phones, watches, vapes because of his job.

An upgraded or newer version of something he already has?

Has he got one of these? My DH uses his all the time.

Thank you. He has the beanu and a coffee thing.
But I like the Swiss card that's pretty cool isn't it??

A leatherman tool. Best think my DH owns I think.

Also a hand little very sharpe pocket knife.

New trainers

Finisterre sweatshirt

Does he have a hobby?

NoDontLookAtMeImShy · 05/09/2019 18:26

Yes he does he likes doing models but I've bought them for him before and got it wrong or he feels obliged to make it because I bought it for him.
Or at least that's how it felt?

I'm going to google some of the things you mentioned, thank you!

I'm going to get mine an excellent new backpack when the time comes around. an osprey or something. i never know what to get him but this is a stroke of inspiration! his has been with him since he was about 17 and it gets used a surprising lot but it's an absolute state.

I’m getting mine Tile mate as he loses his wallet constantly! Reading with interest for less PA gifts Grin

NoDontLookAtMeImShy · 05/09/2019 19:04

Tiles are great. I got him a similar, better rated version from amazon. He uses it a lot!
