This'll be good as I haven't actually seen it all in one place yet

Nordic socks
A Ferraro Roche ball

I feel like I need something else but I'm not sure what.

Some very luck DP's in this thread!

  • Head and beard hair trimmer
  • Aromatherapy roll on
  • Card game for us both to play one night over xmas period
  • Maybe some white chocolate

He's very hard to buy for

Oh nice thread idea because it gives me some ideas 😂

I've bought mine:

  • A brew your own beer kit
  • A console game he wanted
  • Cookie Monster pyjama bottoms (from our son)

I'd also like to get him some bottled beers from our favourite beer place in town.

I would like to get him something else so tbc...

tumpymummy · 09/12/2020 18:40

Nothing yet! And it's his birthday next too. Seeking inspiration!

CosyQueen · 09/12/2020 18:45

We’re on a really tight budget this year. He has:

-2x PS4 games that he had heavily hinted at (got used on amazon - he’s happy with that by the way - and they’re not expensive)

  • boxers and socks
  • a new PlayStation 4 control pad
  • some pjs, 2 jumpers and a hoodie all from the sports direct sale (probably worked out cheaper than primark prices)
  • a WWE dvd that he asked for
  • a big mug and some nice coffee
  • chocolates and sweets
passthemustard · 09/12/2020 18:49

I'm giving him a baby next week.

Do you think he needs anything else?

maxineputyourredshoeson · 09/12/2020 18:49

DH has;
A tube screamer for his guitar
Pants (standard every Christmas)
A pair of boots
A hat
An Eco Dot - well it’s actually for the kitchen and was bought on a Black Friday deal and I panic wrapped it up for him for Christmas Grin

MazDazzle · 09/12/2020 18:53

After shave and 4 pairs of pyjamas/loungewear. His current ones are all ready for the bin.

Worriedandabitscared · 09/12/2020 18:54

Nothing

He got a ps5 on the 19th November that counts as his Christmas present.

DragonOnFire · 09/12/2020 18:54

@passthemustard

I think you got it covered!

I gave Dh a baby 2 days before his birthday (nearly on his birthday but DS made his own moves)... I got my MIL to sort the birthday cake and she brought him cards when she came to visit her newborn grandson!

I don't think my DH cared at all about what he got for his birthday that year tbh

SilverOtter · 09/12/2020 18:55

He doesn't like the dog, so I've bought him pyjamas covered in the dog's face🤣
