muggs Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 I need some thoughts since I'm the most unoriginal guy ever. I bought her a new digital cam/camcorder that she wanted, need some more stuff though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Re: what are you getting your other half? Once I bought my wife some nail polishes, Emery boards, a foot scrubber (you know, all that girly scrubbing stuff). I put it in her stocking and she loved it. It blew away the other stuff I bought her. As far as what to get her as a main gift.... You're on own. I am a horrible shopper. It doesn't matter how hard I try, I suck it up..... In fact, if anyone has good ideas Ill take a few suggestions too.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingInMaine Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Re: what are you getting your other half? I am getting him a range finder and game camera for the big present. His birthday is just before christmas too, so I have already given him a cat quiver he wanted as an early present for his PA bow hunting trip and think I will pick up a Red Sox championship hat, tee shirt and hooded sweatshirt (don't know how long it will be before we can buy that sort of stuff again! LOL). Other than that it will be some hunting socks, new camo pants and some other little stuff. As for ideas when buying for your female other halfs, why don't you just ask??? I can only pray they aren't like my mother who always comes back with "If you really knew me, you would know what I like!" . Good luck and when all else fails get gift certificates!

Palssonater Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Re: what are you getting your other half? "Kick in the pants with a frozen boot" is the only answer I get when I ask what I am getting! Since the car fiasco, tight for money. Stocking stuffers and thats about it...I feel bad. But she did get a good gift already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Re: what are you getting your other half? We don't get anything for each other. We both get things for each other or for ourselves throughout the year that we need or want. My wife and I both agree that the commercialism of Christmas is over-rated, but giving to the needy is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvDog Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Re: what are you getting your other half? I try to pay attention to things that she looks at and does NOT buy herself and then I also just ask her. Sometimes it is difficult to get a list from her but eventually I find out at least a couple of things. One thing that I did for our anniversary a few months back was to make her a greeting card myself on my computer. Now I will admit that I pulled "some" of the text from another greeting card but the personal touch and effort was definitely appreciated.

dogdoc Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Re: what are you getting your other half? i was thinking about getting her a new shotgun--she doesn't hunt so maybe i'll get to use the new shotgun. or maybe some new camo and a new bow. Or maybe a $500 Cabela's gift certificate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
