Any shockers?!

Dp did very well buying me a Tiffany's necklace but this was counterbalanced with a talking monkey that smells of bubblegum from Build A Bear :/

Pjs, cath kidston slipper socks, some baking equipment, special touch phone gloves, a magic wand pencil and some Oreos.

Bloody marvelous and no shockers!!

A pair of cashmere socks from White Company, pale pink and totally impracticable, but so cosy and warm. Xmas Smile.

A new car! We're not doing pressies for adults this year, but yesterday we picked up a new car. Although we lease it through a company car scheme, so it isn't strictly ours, it really feels like we have a new car for Christmas, and my old one was getting to be expensive to maintain, and looked really beaten up.

Citizen Eco drive watch, which I love!

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 25/12/2012 10:34

Every year we say we aren't buying presents for each other, and every year we break it albeit with fairly small (but thoughtful) ones. This year I got the complete Star Wars box set on bluray, which made me very happy as it's something I've been unable to justify buying myself and whinging about for the last 6 months or so.

Mrsrudolphduvall · 25/12/2012 10:39

Digital radio for my office and vouchers for my beauty salon.
We have crackers to come.....we fill our own so there may be something small and sparkly to come.

iPad 3. I'm grateful, I really am. But we don't have wifi and it's not linked to a network so seems a little redundant? However, it's lush Grin

piprabbit · 25/12/2012 10:58

A Sat Nav.

It is very generous of him, but I do have one already and I never go further than then next town.

Alliwantisaroomsomewhere · 25/12/2012 14:19

A camera!I was really surprised especially seeing that I bought him small things and we agreed that after Christmas we would get a dishwasher. Xmas Smile

Also got me some Clinique goodies which I wanted.

sooperdooper · 25/12/2012 14:24

Tickets to Cats, lovely smellies, a Christmas jumper! Cheese and wine set, Caitlin Moran book, fluffy socks, candles

bellechristmas · 25/12/2012 14:25

A handbag I chose, cd and chocs. I'm a lucky girl.

AnAirOfHopeInAManger · 25/12/2012 14:34

Choclate and supernatural s7 dvd and non alchole beer. I love him so much its all great

jazzcat28 · 25/12/2012 14:37

Smellies, Faith boots, Naked 2 eyeshadows and a voucher to buy a jumper I'd asked for but they'd sold out

Very pleased with first Christmas as man and wife!

FinallyMrsFC · 25/12/2012 14:43

An iPad 4. Tis lovely. And my boys are loving finally getting to play with my iPad1 which was getting very clunky.

strumpetpumpkin · 25/12/2012 14:45

fuck all

but i love him. we are just not christmassy people

HECTheHallsWithRowsAndFolly · 25/12/2012 14:46

Some really lovely foundation.

Salesperson clearly saw him coming. It's one of those that claims to be able to know your skin tone and give you the coverage you need Hmm Grin

But it's nice. The right shade and everything.

SparklyGothKat · 25/12/2012 14:47

Tom Daley calendar Wink
iPhone charger and speaker
And a pair of earrings

We didn't do big present this year as we spent a fortune on the kids Shock

snowqueenrollo · 25/12/2012 14:58

some books he knew I would like, some beautiful earrings (because he had noticed I don't have any 'pretty' ones for when we go out), kindle case and light, pincushion, chocolate.

But last night when I was suffering with a tight and itchy 8 month pregnant belly he gave me one to open early - some lovely organic balm to rub into my bump.

Vagazzled. Do you have wired internet or just posting from a phone?

JingleBel · 25/12/2012 15:04

A spa day with two treatments and lunch included. A lovely book he thought I would like.

Good man Smile

Tortington · 25/12/2012 15:05

nothing, we couldnt afford to buy each other this year.

still a good xmas

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/12/2012 15:10

Books, books and more books - including Android Karenina. :)
Clarins stuff.
Bracelet.

But he has spent most of the afternoon pretending to be ants (what IS a group of ants called?)

D0oinMeCleanin · 25/12/2012 15:13

What I asked for, even though he didn't want to, although he has just told me he was going to replace my coffee perculator while I was straining my coffee with kitchen roll Hmm

bringonyourwreckingball · 25/12/2012 15:13

Digital radio, the one radio 4 did for children in need. Bit extravagant as we agreed token presents but I love it and it is for charidee. Also some pie dishes. Very happy. We're also getting each other a place on a charcuterie course to do together in the new year.

jessjessjess · 25/12/2012 15:16

The Dexter box set, Downton Abbey series 3, lots of chocolate, a book I wanted, a dressing gown, some Lush stuff. Very happy but then I do just tell him things I want.
