jenn- Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I really wish DH did not have presents as his love language. We booked a cruise for the end of January that was supposed to be our Christmas/anniversary present to each other. Of course now that Christmas is here he is talking about stuff that he wants and that he is thinking of getting me. I keep reminding him of the cruise, but I know he wants stuff under that tree. What's worse, he wants surprises under the tree so even though he gives suggestions, he also wants something under there that is unexpected. I've done crafty things for him before, but they usually fall flat in reception. He likes useful things, but doesn't want a "vacuum" aka, nothing like leaf blowers etc. I know he needs a new watch, but what he wants is out of our budget so I passed that off to my FIL but that leaves me with no idea. I am thinking of buying the supplies for this shooting target that he can make, but I fear it will never get put together or worse he will think I am giving him permission to shoot near the house. I was also thinking of some work lights, but that feels "vacuum" like to me. So, women and gents, do these seem like good ideas? What kind of things do you give your DH's? Men on the board, what do you like to receive for gifts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Does he like electronics? Electronics, DVDs, and computer stuff are my go-to gifts for my dh. I think he's kind of like your dh -- if he "needs" it, it's not a gift. Gifts are for fun. (My ds12 is the same way!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thescrappyhomeschooler Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm no help. My husband is impossible to shop for. He doesn't want or need anything. If he wants something throughout the year (which is very rare), he just buys it himself. Most gifts he receives (from everyone, not just me) go untouched until I scoop them up in a pile and donate them somewhere. He doesn't read except for bar reports and the newpaper, but when he goes on fishing trips, he likes to read fluffy paperpack fantasy fiction books, so sometimes I'll go to Half Priced Books and get him a stack. He likes to wear head bands and wrist bands when he works out, so I buy him some new ones every year, as well as a couple new Tshirts, but that's about it. His only hobbies are fishing and poker, and he doesn't need or want anything more for either of those. So, I'm right there with you. This year, we have very little money, so he won't be the only one with a paltry pile of presents. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I have an idea for all of you whose husbands are hard to buy for. How about you buy a bunch of stuff that you'd like to have for yourselves, and give it to your husbands for Christmas? Sure, they'll never use any of it, but they wouldn't have used most of the stuff you bought anyway, right? So at least this way, you end up with some great gifts. I'm telling you, this is a win-win situation if you think about it. PS. You probably shouldn't buy them booKshelves, lip glosses, or dangly earrings... unless your dh happens to be into that sort of thing -- and if he would actually use the stuff, that defeats my entire Evil Master Plan anyway.

fairfarmhand Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 books (my dh likes comic books, like calvin and hobbes, the Far Side, and Zits) DVD's (he likes classic TV shows like Perry Mason, Andy Griffith, etc.) If you don't like the idea of a gun shooting target, why not get him some archery stuff? Or some throwing knives and hatchets? My dh would say that you can never go wrong with Corn Nuts and Beef Jerky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabrizia Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'll be getting DH a board game, maybe 2, Perplexus Epic, Light Saber icepop molds and a couple of t-shirts, plus I got him and the 3 kids nerf guns (he needs a nerf gun for his office, they have random nerf fights). He is fairly easy to shop for though. I just go to online shops I know he likes and search around until I find something that matches his interests and is fun.

SunnyDays Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 DH and I just don't exchange much at all. I think he would *like* to make it a bigger deal, but we're both hard to buy for. We do put a little something under the tree for each of us... DS is an only child and he wouldn't want to be the only one opening gifts!! This year, I ordered some DVD's from Amazon that we wanted, and I'll wrap those up and put them under the tree... get us each an i-tunes gift card, and done!! It would be hard if the love language for one partner was gifts, and they were expecting great surprises each year. Cat - I like your idea. :D Nah, lip gloss is probably off the table, but you can always get a new set of dishes, or an espresso maker, and call it a "joint" gift!!

Jenny in Florida Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Oh boy, at least I wasn't the one to start this thread this year. My husband, too, dislikes practical gifts and anything that isn't a surprise. In our family (at his instigation), if anyone has openly asked for something, they probably won't find it under the tree. Gifts should surprise and delight, be the thing the person didn't even know existed until the package is opened . . . However, he has no hobbies to speak of. He watches TV, occasionally plays World of Warcraft (although he goes in and out of that), plays RPGs with a group from work maybe once a month. He has a bad back and does nothing active or outdoorsy. For the most part, if something needs to be fixed around the house, I do it or we pay someone. (So, all the normal standby things like tools and such are off the list.) We don't have a big budget, but if he wants something and we can afford it, he buys it for himself whenever he feels like doing so. He's not especially into food. We live in a house that is too small for the four of us, and one entire wall of the master bedroom is lined with boxes of cutesy decorative stuff we haven't bothered to unpack because there's no place to put it. He already owns: an iPhone, an iPad, a desktop computer and a laptop. He doesn't wear a watch (by choice). He doesn't wear jewelry. By the time Christmas hits, we've used up any ideas we might have had on Father's Day and his birthday (in September). His love language is gifts. And he is a miserable human being if we don't do enough or don't get him anything good. Needless to say, I start dreading Christmas around the middle of summer. (Catwoman's idea won't work, both because he'd see through it and because I don't give a hoot about presents, myself. I'm uncomfortable having money spent on me and would much rather see it go into a charitable donation.) With that said, here are my only ideas for him thus far for this year: - I found Muppet appliques at the craft store. (He's a big Muppets fan.) I'm planning to sew them onto polo shirts he can wear to work on casual Fridays. It's almost practical, in that it's clothing, but it's both cute enough and personal enough that I think I can get away with it. - His car stereo does not allow for plugging in his iPhone. He's looked into getting it replaced, but it's far too expensive. He hates driving without music. So, I was considering burning him some CDs of favorite songs that he could keep in the car. I'm trying to figure out some way to package them in a cute way, labelled as "Driving Music," but I'm feeling less inspired about this one with each passing day.

Tess in the Burbs Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I am no help. My dh wants a $100 flashlight for Christmas.

They make adapters for regular car stereos so you can plug your iPhone/iPod in and listen through the speaker system. Much easier than burning CDs, and then he can still have his iPhone playlists.

RoughCollie Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I am getting DH a new pair of slippers, a remote starter for his car, and a book. The dog will get him a Whitman's Sampler (DH loves them). I don't know what the kids will get him ... I can't think of anything else ... probably gift cards to Barnes & Noble, Red Lobster, and Applebees. The remote starter was this year's Great Idea -- I fear it will be a once in a marriage experience for me. The only gift I've ever given DH that he really, truly loved (besides books, which he expects) was a milkshake machine. I expect the remote starter to be in that category because (1) DH is 63 and not in the best health; and (2) it is cold outside in the winter and he will feel a lot more comfortable in an already-warm car.

Susan C. Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Dh is hard to shop for..... each year I try to find a theme. One year, I walked into a store, and all of the Beatle's albums were on remastered CDs....score because dh loves the Beatles. Last year was piano theme, we got the piano tuned and got piano music. This year hasn't come together yet. We have kept Christmas simple for many years, we had many very lean years and are now in the habit of getting a few things for each person that they need/want.

jenn- Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Thanks for all the suggestions. Some I have done in the past, others won't work. I think I need to stop taking him Black Friday shopping with me and once again tell him he is not allowed to buy anything for himself from October on. I used to be able to get him a stack of movies that I always tell him no on throughout the year, but now he goes shopping with me and he knows everything I buy. Since mid November he has come home with a spotting scope and a small digital locking gun case. I flat out looked at him and said those would have been great Christmas gifts. I went out and bought the parts to the gun stand and it ended up being a little more expensive then I had planned. I wish I had the know how to chop up a large PVC pipe, but I don't so I had to get the precut ones (couldn't figure out how to wrap a 7' PVC pipe so that he could do the cutting). I separated the stuff into 3 different presents and I am going to put the instructions in a card on the tree. I need to find large targets he can use on it, but I saw them at Academy. Thanks again. Sometimes it is nice just knowing you are not the only one in this position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Rat Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 So if it shouldn't be practical and it needs to be a suprise.... Dig deep into those memories of cheezy 80's movies! Make a mix CD of his favorite songs. Make a quilt of all of his old concert tshirts that are gathering dust in the closet. Write him a poem and frame it. Make a little album of your life together. Figure out what his favorite toy was as a kid and see if you can get it on ebay. (My dh's was that Star Wars trash compactor. Alas, I am NOT paying $75 for a 30 yo toy!) What was the toy that he wanted as a child but never got? See if you can get that one. Cheesy band that he loved when he was younger? They are probably touring. I secretly love Legos (well, I guess it's not a secret anymore.) My dh has gotten me my own kits before. I have gotten/made/had made all the things above. The quilt my mom made is beautiful and hang in our bedroom. I've also used some of these ideas for other hard to shop for men in my family. My dad's mom collected carnival glass. She died when he was 9 and some familiy member cleared out the house before he returned home. I started collecting it for him. Not the same as his mom's, but in honor of her at least. Of course, the above don't really work if he wants store bought fancy stuff. Luckily, my dh is also a sentimental gift giver, too. He and boys picked out a trio of antique crocks for my kitchen last year, in three sizes representing the three of them. Cost them $60 total. I smile everytime I see them.

FeFe Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 This will be the first year (in 15) that DH and I are doing gifts for each other. I found this idea on Pinterest. I'm having so much fun thinking of dates for us. I'm trying to think of things unique but also things that he enjoys and things I enjoy. For instance, I don't golf and he doesn't often but he loves it. One month we'll go to a driving range and then the next month we'll go play a round. I figure I'll at least enjoy driving the cart around! We'll go to a huge outdoor vintage market in the Spring. It's my thing but he'll enjoy the day out. Of course, I'll throw in dinner and a movie type dates too. I'm having fun planning them! Kinda hard to keep it a secret! Hope that helps some.

This year I decided to spend more than I normally would and bought a reproduction of a vintage curling scene print. I had it matted and framed. Does he like any sports teams? Dh is a Redskins fan, but we're in Patriots/Giants Land, so he doesn't have a lot of Redskins stuff. I bought him an RGIII T-shirt (he's the QB) so I think he'll like that. I also just bought him some vintage curling club pins on Ebay; I don't think I spent more than $5 on any of them.

Ewe Mama Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 It sounds like your man is getting a kilt for Christmas! It's the perfect gift for the spouses of all Hive wives who don't know what to buy for their wonderful hubbies. Think of the kilt contests we could have!
