Anniversary gift for DH

lb1117 · October 2013

Our anniversary is tomorrow (oops!) and I have no card/gift/plan.

What types of things do your DHs like?

I don't want to spend a ton of money but I need to do something.

We usually go on a trip for our anniversary. Even if it's just one night, we try to stay somewhere and have fun together. Other than that, my H would like sports apparel or tickets but he's a crazy sports fanatic. I bought him a tie tack for his birthday since he needed one.

I suck at this stuff. But yesterday was our "dating" anniversary and I got him Magic the Gathering cards (which I hate but he loves) and two packages of chips ahoy. Cheap, but effective. $15 for it all.

ETA: This Saturday is our 1st wedding anniversary and we're not doing gifts. Just cards, fancy dinner, cake, and our wedding video.

PS Happy Anniversary!

@islandmonkey8 - we don't usually do gifts either. Maybe I'll just get a card instead.

We've never actually celebrated our anniversary with dinner or flowers etc so I guess there's no reason to change now

Recently, every gift I get DH we end up returning...

In the past I have gotten him: Ipod, photo albums, a personalized stone for our front yard with our name on it, Aviator sunglasses.
My go to gift for most people now is usually off personlizationmall.com - they have super cute things.

@lb1117 That sounds like a plan. I think we may only end up doing bigger gifts on the big anniversaries every 5 years or so. We'll see!

lol. you could always just do a mini gift basket with his favorite treats in it. I do that for my dad when I've waited till the last minute for something. I just grab a cute wicker basket and raid the Walgreens for fun treats. maybe even throw in a dvd he's been wanting. popcorn for movie night. who knows?!

We've gone away every year (and will do the same this year). It's usually that and a card.

For gifts in general, DH loves craft beer and good scotch, so I've done that (and home brew equipment). I've done concert tickets/sports tickets, video games, awesome decals for his man cave... Other things I'm sure, but now I'm drawing a blank.

I'm usually safe with a DVD he's been wanting. Or golf balls, Swedish Fish, and Kit Kats.

we are trip people too.

maybe just get him a card and a picture frame and take a photo of you two tomorrow and put it in a frame:)

simple and sweet

Our 3rd anniversary is today

but we don't exchange gifts usually. Instead we do something fun together. Since it fell on a Wednesday this year we'll be celebrating this weekend and I think we're going to go out for a nice dinner and then see a movie.

Thanks @islandmonkey8!

Beer, beer, and more beer. I like to put together six-packs of single bottles for him to try. This year for our anniversary (last week) I got him a couple wood beer carriers to put his beer stock in instead of keeping the cardboard carriers.
