Hi all.
looking for a little inspiration. i have got a main present for the wife and wanted a couple of other little things.
i have done in the past:
Make up
hair band kinda jewelry
oil paints
itunes vouchers
she likes art, music and girly things.
anyone proud of their little gifts and want to share?
Cheers.
Git my wife a set of decent Pajama's from Fat face as the days of the saucy one are long gone

theatre night out with hotel?
" theatre night out with hotel? "
This is a little gift ????
If £200 is a little gift, what does Mrs Jossey get for the main present ?
A small island ?
"good cheapish presents for swmbo"
If SWMBO reads this forum it won't matter you already be dead!!!
Or you will wish you were!
You should try that website Groupon
Groupy Linky
Put in your local area and they have deals going and money off etc. The deals change daily and you can have a look at the counties around. I got a
really nice lunchtime meal for 2 (two courses) including 2 drinks for £15. Job Done.
Groupon is of course being investigated by trading standards - but they are being accused of misleading businesses and making the deals too cheap -
good for Joe Public.
Me and bro in law sent sent relevant wives on a spa pampering day, they loved it
Great tips!
I am already doing the theatre hence cheap!
2 tickets to war horse with meal is going to be 200ish.
pajamas and spar i like!
Any others?
define "cheapish" and people may be able to be more specific
Spa days aren't necessarily cheap depending upon what package you go for.

La senza doing 2 pairs of pyjamas for 20 quid when they are normally 30 quid each.
maybe time off?
when asked i replied that all i wanted was a pass out to do le mans each year and maybe a trip or two away with mates,
having kids now the occasional real time off i get is the most valuable gift i could get as much i adore them

Set of Halford screwdrivers, if your lucky you may get them free with some oil
I've got the same dilemma too.
She wanted a Kindle, so that was easy.
But now I need to get a bunch of smaller bits and pieces and am struggling.
Temptation is to get a some kindle vouchers and I already got her a cover for it but it's nice to have a mix of things.
Hotel chocolat was a good call but now I'm struggling with the rest.
She'd appreciate pyjama's I'm sure, but I think our aspirations would be very different on this front
If I can't figure something out it'll be a fall back on perfume, jewellery and the usual stuff.
I was having the same problem but in reverse, plenty of ideas for the smaller less expensive presents but stuck for a 'main' pressie. Then out of the blue checked Michael Bublé website to see if any new tours were on the horizon as swmbo is a massive fan. Lo and behold tickets just been released for 2 dates at the Ahoy arena in Amsterdam in April. So now the credit card is a bit damaged but got 2 front centre tickets, North Sea Ferries crossing that we always enjoy and a night in an exec room in the 5* Manhattan Hotel. Should hopefully bag a few brownie points
Nipple clamps are quite cheap these days.....
I have bought mine tickets for the MotoGP in spain next year (of course she can't go on her own so i got one too)....
As for a smaller stocking filler type thig, I got her a haynes manual for Land Rover and a boiler suit.....
That'll teach her to run my Discovery without an alternator drive belt (also drives the water pump) and feckin up a perfectly good engine.

You guys are chuffing jokers!
Right this second I am taking a moment out of work (yep I seem to be working all day and night at the mo!) and you lot have cheered me up because I am
tired, p'eed off and warn out.
Cheap ~ £30 one or two prezzies of this value, depends what they are.
Ill have a look at la senza, I like that shop anyways!
We love Hotel choc too and I will get her some of that. I think I am getting there!
Thanks all.
