Trouble TTC

What did you get your DH for his last bday?

DH's bday is on Tuesday and I'm drawing a blank... everything I want to get him is too expensive (iPad, new Tivo, etc) He set a limit of $100 on himself...

ideas appreciated!

  • Red Envelope has lots of good gift ideas.

    My DH just turned 35 in January.  I got him a few smaller gifts but his main gift was a pocket watch that I had engraved.  Normally I get him golf related stuff.  His brother got him personalized golf balls for Christmas and he loves them.

  • Mostly we do a really nice dinner or a show or something together for our birthdays.  But I did get him a key chain that I had engraved with a "secret" message (it has a removal part that you have engraved) since he had just gotten a new car :)

    ETA:  I second Rye's suggestion, this gift and one of his Christmas gifts came from Red Envelope and he's loved them!

    DH is really impossible to buy for, and we were supposed to close on our house the day before... does that make my crappy gift okay?

  • Doesn't your husband run too?  My friend got her husband a custom running running that he wears for races.  It's got his name on it and a cute little flying shoe logo.

  • A leather jacket that was on clearance. I always have to ask what he wants as he is too difficult to buy for.

  • My husband turned 31 last month so I wrote a list of 31 reasons why I love him. He LOVED it. He kept reading it over & over again and he said it was the best gift he's ever received.

    And it was free. :)

    that's a good idea! You could always do it as a part of whatever gift you end up getting him. At first I thought it would be really hard to think up 31 things (haha) but once you get going it's easy. Mine is in my blog (link below if you want to ck it out).. the Birthday Boy post. :)

  • I bought my DH a new PS3 game he wanted.  Nothing says love like a video game.  Wink

  • Noise cancelling headphones.  They filter out all the white noise and he love them!  If you do go that way, shop around though--prices for the same brand and style vary a lot.
  • I used shutterfly and made him a book of all our honeymoon pics of Hawaii and he loved it!
