HELP! Need inspiration for emergency last minute presents for DP. So far I've got him:-

-socks

  • pants
  • a credit card tool thing
  • a new rucksack for work (commuter)
  • a card wallet

It feels a bit nothing-y and naff! What have you got your DP/DH?

We’ve stopped buying each other presents because we can’t afford it and it’s just an extra hassle to deal with at a busy time of year. It has massively simplified our lives.
