What the heck do you all buy for your brother in laws?

I have one brother in law and I have run out of ideas. In the past I have bought him a t-shirt, pyjamas, restaurant vouchers, an experience voucher, nice slippers, a puzzle/game, sweets, an Amazon Alexa.

He only likes takeaway food and some bigger chain restaurants (scared to get a voucher incase anywhere goes bust over Christmas with everything being closed).

Tech or gadget ideas for £20-30?

If not, it might need to be a t-shirt and hope that it fits since I can't get into the shops to see them.

Have any of you had any breakthrough gift ideas that went down really well? If so, please share!

Ah yes the man problem

Hip flask? Bike multi tool? Biography book?

I find them so hard to buy for, what about a just eat voucher?

Bought mine a tassimo machine, it was down to £28 on Amazon. He was asking questions about the coffee we drink so just went off that!

In other years, it's been music (vinyls) but he's recently moved out so not set up for that.

Wine.

Why not just agree not to buy each other presents? After a few years of exchanging gifts we did and it made life so much simpler and saved everyone money. Do your brothers in law drink? Why not a bottle of spirits? There are companies that will print personalised labels on their drinks.

Is it your husbands brother or your sister's husband?
If it's the former, hand the problem over to your husband. Job done!

We stopped buying for each other simple job done

I agree with pp. it sounds time to stop buying for each other.

Agree with @CallmeAngelina that if it's your husband's brother - you just leave it to him! My husband is responsible for his own family! Although I often help with ideas just because I've thought of something.

For sister's brother - lots of food/alcohol/experience related gifts or joint gifts for him and my sister.
