I need advice for a Christmas Pressie for my man!

Postby Sprunkn7 » Wed Nov 21, 2012 8:01 pm

My bf and I have been together forever. I have gotten him every video console, laptop, tablet...headphone and speakers. Clothes, shoes, boots, surprise NYE tix for his fav band....mini vacations, every DVD series he could want. We just got new phones a few months ago, we're going away for New Year...and he has enough clothes, socks and underwear.
I'm running out of ideas for a cool Christmas gift!! Usually by October I have my mind set, but this year I am at a total loss.
What would you guys like to get for Christmas this year? What has your significant other ever given you that speaks volumes?
Help me!!

Thanks!

has he mentioned something in passing during the year? expressed an interest in something in causal conversation?
Now what we have to understand is that this comes from an extremely clever and skillful program, that has manipulated us into ways of thinking that may be contrary to our own interests, but beneficial to the interests of the powers that be... beneficial to the interests of those who control our lives, and tax us until we have hardly a penny left to spend, take our money, and plough it into the creation of huge, armed bureaucracies, which exist to oppress us. We live in a society today where we may not make decisions, to explore our own consciousness. If I am not sovereign over my own consciousness, then I am sovereign over nothing.

I have a great memory bank for that kind of thing. he's been pretty quiet in that regard.

So frustrating. I want him to be surprised but have a main present he will really love. uuugggh!

I know you said you got him every DVD set, but they just came out with the 50th Anniversary set of the James Bond movies a couple of months ago. It has bonus material and stuff not on the previous versions.

I don't know if your man cares for James Bond at all, but I don't think I've met a man who doesn't, so I thought I'd throw it out there.

3 day weekend getaway...
Is he a skier?
Would he rather be at a beach?

Buy a nice little 3 day weekend package somewhere.

Just an idea.

Wait a second...
I see you are going away for New Years...
Nevermind..

Get him more socks and undies.
You can never have enough!
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Gave me gear, thank you dear, bring your sister over here...Let her dance with me just for the hell of it.

Do do do do do do do do do do!!!!!

get him a little blue car we used to race ;)

I'm in the same boat, it gets tough, people have what they need and want,
only so much stuff. I go in his closet and think he's got it all!

No list from JB yet this year. The staples that he unusually likes each year new...
slippers, robe, toothbrush replacements ...boring!

I'll be racking my brain for awhile I think.

I went to a store on line, Perpetual Kid, last year and found some fun little things for
all the family, JB likes stuff like that for the office.
I think I googled gag gifts and up it came.

Happy Holidays Sprunkin
I know you'll come up with something creative, something from the heart,
something perfect knowing you ... you always do :D
Thank you for your generous spirit in our Christmases past!

Just let me known to be
In search of the truth myself
There is a drop of blood on the ground
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
And I can't be sure if its yours or mine."
