All ideas welcome. Budget £50 as "we're not doing presents this year". He's 39, football and golf mad though really doesn't need (I don't want) anymore sport stuff. Not overly techy.

Previous Christmases I've done wallet, work bag, watch then usual aftershave, socks etc.

Any ideas? Preferably ones I can prime!

I have the same problem! Don't usually buy for him and he says he wants nothing but I'm back working full time and want to get something.

rottiemum88 · 14/12/2019 20:47

Shoes/trainers? Particular alcoholic drink he likes?

I've just bought dp tickets to see a comedian and a jar of pork scratchings.

I've gone for my usual boring ideas this year, aftershave, DVDs, computer game.
Will add socks, chocolate and maybe something daft!

I bought my husband a really nice reusable razor with that budget.

I’ve just bought my husband an electric back /neck/shoulder massager following a suggestion on another thread.

RaiseaGlasstoFreedom · 14/12/2019 23:34

Which neck massager??

Op one of best gifts for dh was small bag of love honey stuff...

TorysSuckRevokeArticle50 · 14/12/2019 23:43

Tickets for a concert or sports event

My DH likes American and Japanese foods so have ordered a load of sweets and crisps you cant get here

@RaiseaGlasstoFreedom - I bought this one as it had strong reviews but no idea what it’s like yet: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B074S9BJ6B/ref=pe_3187911_185740111_TE_item?tag=mumsnetforu03-21
