Last few cheapie bits for DH's stocking

I haven't bought DH a Xmas present in years. We stopped doing 'grown up' presents at Christmas yonks ago.

But this year, I am going to surprise him with a stocking (well, a 'Santa's sack' as the stuff I've got won't fit into a stocking!), as he has been so absolutely amazingly wonderful. he has supported me through various trials and tribulations over the past year, including a serious illness & operation earlier this year.

He is my rock in every way and my best friend and I just want to treat him a tiny little bit, as a thank you for being so fab.

So...I have been saving for a while (I'm a skint student!) to get him a few nice bits, and so far have got the following:

So far I have got:

Some nice pants and socks

A few knick knacks from the shop of his favourite football team

Framed pictures of our children

Posh chocolates

Posh hot chocolate (he loves a good cup of cocoa!)

Posh pate, chutney and crackers (his favourite and only ever allows himself to have it at Xmas)

Some travel games (he travels a lot with my DS to footie, so something to play on the train)

A book

A DVD

Some nice Clarins / Origins / Clinique men's toiletries (he can be a bit metrosexual when he feels like it)

Gift voucher for a couples wine tasting event for the two of us

A really lovely Paul Smith scarf

What other little bits can I get him? Running out of cash now, so needs to be cheap. I was thinking of something...urm...naughty, but he's not really an 'Ann Summers comedy underpants' type of guy.

Any other suggestions (x-rated or not!)?

I think you've spent more than enough already, young lady.

If he likes chocolate and you're looking for something naughty, how about some choc. body spread! :o You can always claim it as a joke if he's not into it, and if he is, all the more fun for you both!

Hope you're better now?

I saw some adult size batman pj bottoms in the Tesco catalogue. Fancy rolled up scroll tied with a ribbon with a 'special promiss' inside (BJ, massage, whatever you think he would like).

tin of lynx, some shower gel, chocolate coins, mini marshmallows to go in his hot choc, a jokey type thing from hawkins

You could give him a voucher for, ahem, your services, as it were. Maybe a "date" voucher with prearranged babysitting elsewhere ( grandparents nearby? ), candlelit dinner etc.
