Spouse, significant other, family, friends...whatever. What did everyone get for gifts this year?

For my lady:

- some lotions and soaps
- couple pair of earrings
- some candles
- chocolates, nuts and a nutcracker, a mini whisk, and cool bottle stopper
- a french press
- a set of mexican bubble glass drinking glasses
- one of those measuring cups that is a sliding cylinder...pretty cool, and she had been talking about it for a while.
- Flowerbomb perfume ($$$)
- A jar with 365 slips of paper, one for each day with a reason why I love her. (You've gotta have that cheesy shit.) :mrgreen:

Still need a few more stocking stuffers... :?

So, what'd ya get 'em?

  • A kindle... we weren't even going to give gifts this year, but set the limit at like $50.

    I'm getting around that because her due date for child #2 is Jan 10th, so this is like a combination christmas/maternity leave/having a kid thing :)

    And there is a nice picture of her with our son that I am getting framed for her.
    My whole life
    was like a picture

  • nothing....

    You can tell who's married and who isn't :lol:

    When my wife and I were dating we went crazy with gifts...now every year since we've been married it's 50-50 if we're even going to exchange

    I did buy her the Kinetic for Xbox and the dancing game to go with it..I see some fun nights of drinking and trying to dance
