Other than the Game of Thrones box set of books that I have pestered for for MONTHS? And the Killers Direct Hits cd dp tried (and failed) to buy in secret yesterday.

I have a kindle and use my s3 for most internetting type stuff & don't really need or want anything more technology-ish. I bought some new boots the other day because I'd literally worn my old ones until they fell to bits so don't need boots.

I could do with a coat but dp looked a bit Confused Hmm at my suggestion of a coat....I don't know what else to suggest to him other than maybe make-up but not sure whether he'd just buy something random because he was Confused Confused Confused .

Any ideas?

handbag?

Queenofknickers · 15/12/2013 20:51

Joining thread as DH has just announced he hasn't got me anything and is clueless...Hmm I really want the shower to be fixed but that's not an Xmas present ....I need socks (deep sigh)

Make an Amazon wish list with jewellery, perfume, make up -you can put stuff on form other shops and he can just buy stuff off it and not tell you what so it's still a surprise even if you chose it.
Or ask him to arrange a day out.
Gig tickets/theatre/comedy?

Captain he does usually pick me a handbag (very well too) but hasn't spied anything this year.

I suggested socks and nice undies as stocking fillers....got another Confused Hmm

I know he's going to try and out-do the last two years but I have no idea how!

You would like a hand held anemometer Xmas Grin. Oh wait, that's me!

lucysmam · 15/12/2013 20:57

ooooh, define gig tickets could be a winner! I haven't been to a good gig in years....would have loved to see The Killers but babysitters are few & far between Sad

I emailed my DH a link to a specific handbag and he got a delivery a few days later which feels like a handbag :D I also bought myself a new food processor which he'll give me on Christmas morning. That's perfect for me.

lucysmam · 15/12/2013 21:05

Nix I may do that next year! Cutting it a bit fine for deliveries now though I think maybe?

OYMLK.....erm.....I don't think I need a hand held anemometer but ty for the suggestion Grin

Nix01 · 15/12/2013 21:12

I think most places are accepting orders up to 18th for Christmas delivery?

Are the Killers on tour? I saw them when I was heavily pregnant with DS2 and had a really shit night, but would love to see them again now I can walk

Honey I'm off to investigate a pizza stone and potato ricer....I can just see the Hmm face though (I really need some new scales tbh but he already said no 'cos they wouldn't be just mine)

I got the Hmm face too, from the man that bought us bath mats one year. Grin

I have a little black book which has a list of all the vintage secondhand crime novels I am collecting. People cross them off and i don't look too closely. They are dirt cheap on abebooks so the kids can get me some too.

I am also collecting a complete set of boots old'n'wrinkly serums and that. I have given DH the full list and left it to him to drop hints as needed to the wider family.
