What presents have you bought for your DP?

[Inthetropics]

Just that really.

I've bought:

• Fancy coffee
• Very nice sugar free chocolate (she is diabetic)
• A necklace (she's told me exactly which one to get!)
• Pyjamas
• Crocs (also her choice)
• Huuuuuge jigsaw puzzle

Some Nike trainers
2 tshirts
Gap hoody
Pj bottoms
Shorts (several of his had broken over the summer, and these were relatively cheap and I got extra discount as a collegue)
Something else I can’t actually remember
A box of lush bath bombs
A jar of Percy pigs from M&S as he saw them when we were leaving and complained he couldn’t get them.

A knife sharpener and an electric carving knife we always buy each other kitchen/cooking stuff for xmas, since we were poor and we really needed it more than presents one year - now it's our little tradition.

I've also got him a massive tub of sweets, some odd socks and a mug from dd (she thinks everyone loves getting socks and mugs as presents)

Massage cushion
Molton brown gift set
Hot chocolate velvetiser
Laird or lady title gift
Jumper from River Island
Mini desktop Henry hoover

Stocking gifts
Crude chocolate edible body part
Manual power drill (joke gift)
Key chain snake game
Leather passport holder
Christmas boxers and socks
How to swear around the world book

Oh and new pyjamas and slippers

My husband has just converted his garage to a man cave so I've bought him a projector to connect to his playstation, a mini fridge, other boring things live shelving, cushions and other decor that match his colour scheme. I've got him gift vouchers as well for sports direct so he can choose himself some new trainers. Hes pretty hard to buy for. He never writes a christmas list.

T Shirt from FourFourTee
Hoody
Couple of books
Walking boots
Cafetiere and posh coffee
Espresso martini kit

Board game (that he has requested)
Wall mounts for his guitar and uke
A lute to uke music book
Bottle of gin
Storm trooper beer
A Cabin Pressure t-shirt
Bag of humbugs (as per every year).

Apple air pods
Armani hybrid smart watch
New shorts and T-shirt’s for gym
Gym bag
Trainers
Water bottle

We only get each other 1 present, so we can spend more on the DC. I got him a nice whiskey tasting set with a glass.

Driving experience
Nanobrick racing car model
Shirt
Socks

Stocking ( we do £10)
Wooden laser cut f1 coaster
Chocolate/sweets
Deodorant
Will stick an apple in too he doesn’t like oranges/tangerines etc.

So far dp has a jumper. He is difficult to buy for. One because he is not a stuff kind of person and two I am a bit skint at the moment.

On a side note OP is your dp type 1 or 2?
My dn who is type 1 was told by their specialist nurse to stay away from diabetic foodstuff and just eat normal things.

She is type 2. But it makes sense to have regular stuff for a type 1.

My DH is getting a flight simulator experience gr that hes been on about for ages! I will also give him a pack of his favourite biscuits so he has more than an envelope to open.

@Onebabyandamadcat I’m hoping to wrap later ( day off) so I’ll post when I get it out. I’d quite like to read it myself when I saw it!

I’ve bought him a theragun. He’s always complaining of aches and and pains after playing sport and his physio was telling him about them ages ago.
And the obligatory pants and socks, colour changing pine cones for the fire, Carolina reaper chilli peanuts, a wok, a book, pair of boots and a big box of maltesers. We don’t always bother with each other at Christmas but have done this year.

Framed print from his fave sports team
Fancy Spanish "holiday" beers
2 vintage tin signs for the tiki bar he is planning to build in the new garden
Personalised beer glass from the cats 😂

Gone a bit overboard too. He never asks for things or gives me ideas even when pushed so I went ahead and came up with my own ideas and then after I thought I was done he decided this was the year for requests.

3x vinyl
A hard to find CD (he's archaic with technology)
The new Tim Minchin CD
A t-shirt
Joe Browns jumper
Steel tongue drum
New Rob Halford autobiography
Cookies in a train shaped tin (specifically chosen by DS)

Stocking:
Initial tree decoration
Lemon meringue fudge
Fudge sauce
Shaving brush
Campfire scented candle
Sleep mask
Mint marshmallows with chocolate chips
Chocolate coins

This is the book

PS5 and it was so stressful to get a d obviously expensive so that's it 😂

A Thermos flask
Thick socks
A selection of his favourite chocolates
Big tub of spicy peanuts
A puzzle book
Board game
Selection of beers
More tools (the only thing he asked for)

Stocking
Hot chocolate melting snowman
Wind up toy (everyone gets one)
Fancy foot cream
Mug with drawings from dc on it
New deck of cards
Chocolate orange

Thank you @rj!

I've bought:

A dvd box set (he still likes receiving DVD's- I have asked )
A weighted blanket
Remote control ufo- will probably last 5 mins
Xbox game

Want to get him one more thing but I don't know what.

Under the tree:

• exploding kittens
• back support for his desk chair
• foot rest rocker thing
• how to swear around the world
• stormtrooper cheese board, will add cheese to it next week
• beginners gardening book
• pyjama bottoms

Stocking:

• carpenters level
• bar of chocolate orange with cranberry
• mug cake recipe book
• gin and tonic popcorn

Then I'll fill the rest with stuff like chocolate and socks

Off me: Bluetooth earphones, whisky, whisky glass and stones set and slippers.
Off dd: lynx set and Turkish delight.

I want to get him something else but I don't know what. I have a few things in my next basket online but unsure on them.

@Entrytohr Stormtrooper cheese board you say. Where might one find such a thing?
