My DH is getting
Timberland boots
Ted baker shirt
Checked fleece shirt
Large chocolate bar from Aldi (hopefully with the winning ticket for £5000!)
Hair products
Happy socks
Foldable camping fire

Love those maps & journal 29. I’ve made a note of them for next year.

Gig tickets.
Limited edition vinyl. (an IOU for this as was a preorder that has been delayed until February thanks to COVID)
Espresso gift set with moka pot, cup and beans.
Craft beers - random selection from our local taphouse.
Obligitary pants and socks.

Some other random stocking filler bits I pick up in town when I finally brave it.

@penguinwithasuitcase- You asked about the chilli sauces I bought DH. A month ago, Saturday kitchen did a segment on chilli sauces, but when I tried to buy some, they'd sold out. I saw this one at wilko and on a whim, bought it. I cant comment on what they are like, but its a start!

Lego went down well here last year! I must admit though the set I wanted to buy was so expensive I couidnt afford it so what I did get was finished quite quickly.

Running stuff this year, and probably a drill?!!
Cheeses sound nice though.

AmazingBouncingFerret · 27/11/2021 20:10

Bottle of brandy.
A tablet.
Bose noise cancelling earbuds
Loose leaf tea.
3kg of liquorice allsorts. (Completely accidental, DD has also got 3kg of rosy apples…)
Hammer horror film art books.

@Hairyfriend they look fab! Thanks so much for the link Smile

OhYeahyeahyeah · 27/11/2021 20:23

So far:

A Laptop Rucksack
A Pair of Smart Work boots
A Pair of Weekend shoes
Some power tool blades
A Woolly bobble hat
Shin Pads for Football

That's probably enough for Christmas but he has a habit of going all out on Me so I feel obligated to do the same!

Nothing as usual but I regularly buy him gifts throughout the year. We're going to Mexico in January so that's kind of a gift to each other.

Fuck knows. He’s a hoarder who doesn’t have many hobbies, doesn’t read, and never wants anything (he’s money anxious and would rather have cash to squirrel away).
So far I’ve got:
Aftershave
Spa day
Socks
Chocolate

This year we are literally doing token gifts. I’m getting him socks, chocolate, badedas bath stuff and paying for an LP he wants. Total spend less than £30. We couldn’t have family round last year as we were shielding but this Xmas my DD is bringing GS (2) the day before Xmas Eve and leaving Boxing Day... 😁 so that’s really the best present either of us want. I can’t wait to see his little face on Christmas morning (GS not DH)
