X-Mas Presents for DH?

What are you guys thinking? My DH started giving me ideas, but his ideas are more along the lines of, "An iPad...tickets to the Alumni Hockey Game...a Flyers jersey that is $200...."

I'm trying to think of more.....cost effective ways for him to have an awesome Christmas since we just bought a house. What have you guys come up with?

Re: X-Mas Presents for DH?

  • I bought him all of the seasons of Arrested Development and a medium sized smoker since he's wanted one for awhile. I may get him a couple of other little things, like CDs but I haven't decided yet

  • His elk mount is costing like $800, so that's essentially his Christmas present from everyone.  I might get him something little to open on Christmas, but I'm pretty off the hook for gifts this year.

  • He's getting the deluxe edition 30 for 30 gift set, a Mavs zip up hoodie, a Mavs championship ornament, a patchwork belt (made by me) and whatever else I find for him between now and xmas.

  • Just purchased a shirt from ThinkGeek.com that is a diagram of "Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock" from The Big Bang Theory. We've been watching that show on a daily basis lately and if it doesn't confuse him, I think he'll like it. :) Off to a good start, I think..

    Yes

     

    So far all I've bought mine is a tshirt from thinkgeek that is a tentacle design. He just got a new phone (which was my plan!) so that's out. I am thinking a few board games that he mentioned wanting, and maybe a case/some accessories for his new phone.

  • The only thing my husband has noted that he actually wants is pants and sweaters. So he's getting clothes but I'm at a loss for a big or fun gift. So, we'll see what strikes me in the next few weeks I guess.

  • I've bought: a Nike sweatsuit, Under Armour sunglasses, some swanky noise reducing headphones he asked for, an FSU sweatshirt, pj pants, a fuzzy winter hat, tshirts, shoes, boxers, and a mug that keeps your coffee warm.
  • so far I have gotten H a remote thing for the PS3, boxers/undershirts, some graphic t's, a hoodie. I want to get him this flashlight thing he wants from Home Depot and then some stocking stuffers.

  • So far for Chris I have Uncharted 3, three nice shirts, a tie, earbuds, gaming headphones/mic for his computer, LLBean fleece slippers, a cute Cut The Rope plush, a mini Turrent from Portal2 for his desk, and the Steve Jobs biography.  I'm going to get him a bottle of his favorite vodka, maybe a geeky tshirt, and then I think I might be done.  Maybe.

  • Gifts are done and wrapped. Yippy!

    I got him a fancy new welding helmet that he's been eying, HP 7.1 & 7.2 on DVD and I went in on a Toshiba Thrive tablet for him with his parents.

  • I got him the Kinect for his XBox. I will have to admit, this was kinda for me too. I'm not into video games on regular Xbox, but the Kinect is really cool!

    I'm also looking around for some new t-shirts for him. Kinda boring, but I'm sick to death of the Redskins or VA Tech shirts he always wears. :) 

  • The traditional Celtics hoodie...and then I'm at a loss. We settled on a $50 budget but he told me he's not abiding by it and I've been finding it difficult to abide by as well. He gave me the name of a game he wants, but I don't want to get him something he's expecting.  I'm at a loss for him and Big M this year.

  • Jon's really hard to buy gifts for he never wants anything or when he does he just goes out and buys it himself.... I'm thinking of the full seasons of the Sopranos, he also wants a ps3 game, a camelback for when he goes skiing, but other than that I have no idea.

  • I am not sure. It is his birthday this weekend, so I got him a sons of A hoodie, and an mp3 player. I will probably get him a blue ray and a season of something on DVD. I am not sure what else. If its not TMI, I may get my 1st Brazilian wax. I may also get a memory foam mattress topper, which would be for both of us.
