What is on DH's holiday wish list?

DH always wants like 2 things, and they are always very practical (this year, a wheelbarrow and a ladder).  No problem-his parents are happy to get that stuff, but his mom and my parents/siblings are ALWAYS asking me for suggestions.  I can usually come up with 1-2 things for ME to get him, but it's hard to think of even more stuff.

Inspire me!

Re: What is on DH's holiday wish list?

  • Gift cards to Kohls for new shoes & clothes. He's lame!
  • Absolutely no idea and I dread that part of the holiday shopping every year. He never has any ideas, so he gets clothes and tools, and occasionally a videogame.

  • Lol - he has an excel spreadsheet with the different models he wants.  He collects them to play some sort of game, but ends up spending a lot of time painting them just so (yep, like the 40 year old virgin).  He's such a nerd, I wish he would ask for practical stuff!

  • My DH would like tools that are way out of anyone's price range, and a turkey fryer. Stick out tongue I'm am probably getting him the turkey fryer.

    Something inexpensive that DH recently purchased, likes and wants another of is a Cablz sunglasses band. Similar to croakies, but the band is still and doesn't hang on his next. I think he said they're like $10.

  • He wants a new sports coat for work. Easy peasy!
  • Some bigger ideas I have for him are:

    Getting golf clubs reshafted.

    Miter saw

    New drill

    Clothes

    Shoes

    Sound bar for our tv

    Video games

    Happiest place on Earth!

  • The only two things he has mentioned is new Oakley sunglasses and a video game.  Although the video games comes out in just a few days and he is convinced he is going out to buy it that day.  And I insist that he waits and get it for Christmas.  We'll see how that plays out.
  • Wish list?  DH never makes me a list.  Blah!

    One thing I know he wants is a new digital watch - he uses it as his alarm and for running but he doesn't want anything "fancy GPS" or anything.  So....that's like $30.  Done.

    And, other than that, I got nuthin. He did mention the other day "Us" asking for things like a ladder and a hedge trimmer for the house but I'd rather he ask for that so I can get things I want, LOL.

  • Work clothes and underwear.  Every year, I come up with an awesome toy for him.  This year, I got nothin.  Here are a few of our past toys, if anyone needs inspiration:  Kegerator, R2D2 robot that responds to voice commands, remote control helicopter (BIG hit with his friends, I think their wives are doing that one), GPS for camping, and... I know I'm forgetting one.  Must not have been my best idea. 


  • So far he has asked for some new slippers, a sweater from Cabela's, and a new electric razor. 

    I would like some more ideas for him, but right now we haven't decided how much we are spending on each other.  I think we need to shop for the kids and then see how much is left over for us!
