All The Spinoffs - SO Gifts

[cnf2013]

My H is super hard to buy for. He is one of those people who as soon as he wants something, just goes out and buys it. It could be days before Christmas or his birthday and he'll just buy himself all the things. 

Tell me how to shop for my husband. What is everyone else getting their SO's?

FFMC? We just don't do gifts (sometimes for birthdays). We'll get something for the house or take a weekend away. We just do stockings for each other and I get his favorite candy and a few other small things. We're boring, but it works for us.
So, I'm no help.

This is basically what we do. My parents do the same (and/or wrap up some of the bigger ticket things (or photos of the big ticket things) that they bought throughout the year). Really the most critical thing my dad has to buy my mom every year is a large bag of Christmas m&ms to go in her stalking.

We do one or two gifts and then stockings. Sometimes the gifts are experiences, other times physical items.

This year I'm getting MH an UNTUCKit shirt and a subscription to a craft beer of the month club. Not sure about stocking stuffers.

I got DH a clock made from bicycle parts at the craft fair. It's our 5th Christmas together and for our first I also got him a clock, so it seems fitting, right? Clara helped pick it out

Last year I got him a rug he wanted for his office and a personalized/handmade leather wrapped caribeener key chain thingy embossed with the girls' initials. Oh and a ton of hand soap. He LOVED this pine sent so I bought him a years worth as it was a holiday scent

I think I'm getting him a leather field journal cover. There are so many to choose from I'm trying to weed through. He also buys what he wants so it's tricky.

We do very small gifts and stockings. I think I will get him a board game this year. He has a couple on his list.

We don't usually do any gifts on holidays, mostly because we tend to go ahead and buy things we each want when we want them. This year we have decided to at least do a small exchange, but I don't have any ideas yet. I should probably get serious about coming up with something...

Oh good idea. We love board games! Which ones are you eyeing?

[obscurereference]

He's got Kingdom Builders on his list (I think that's it) and some Pandemic expansions.

He hasn't updated his Amazon wish list yet. I think there is a hatchet on there.

I'm getting DH a Webber grill and a brick oven pizza kit that he can use on the Webber, white shoes and cologne and a few small things.

ETA- DH and I always go out on Christmas because we really don't buy big ticket items for ourselves during the year. He's been talking about this grill is march!

Up until this point it was usually an experience, trip, etc. Now with Emma not sure. Clothing is always easy, I guess I need to pick his brain. I am going to get tickets to Jim Gaffigan as he really enjoys him. He just bought himself a convertible so maybe put a bow on it! lol
