    I’m at a loss after all these years as to what to get the dh. What is everyone else buying?
    He already has multiple watches, smart watches, head phones, ear phones, clothes, shoes, belts, alcohol, collages, fragrances etc.
    In the past I’ve done experiences - musicals, match tickets, hotel stays etc. This year none of those things will work.
    Suggest something that I can pick up online and have it show up by Christmas Eve. I’ve been hunting for a month and nothing nice comes to mind. I’ve told him multiple times that there isn’t a gift for him this year but he knows I’ll pull together something and I’m sure he’s going to love whatever I surprise him with. Any ideas?

    Those buggers in the CC company. The last time I tried to buy an expensive gift they called him to let him know of a fishy transaction. He was sleeping half way around the world. He came home and ate my head for his gift until I gave in and gave it to him :triumph::triumph::triumph:

    I love this! I’m going to get my DD one. She really needs this.

    I hadn’t thought about it. He plays multiple sports. I’ll look into it.

    Which is why you have one card solely in your name. :roflmao:
    The Tesla was supposed to be tongue in cheek, btw.

    That was when I finally did. Since I pay the bills, it wasn’t a big deal until then.

    Scotch of the month subscription (if he likes liquor)

    Coffee around the world subscription

    Binoculars (with local bird guides if he is in birdwatching)

    ‘A promised land’ by Barack Obama either hard copy or audio book

    Just a few things that came to mind.

    I hadn’t heard of this. This is something that’s worth exploring for my BIL.

    Now that’s my kind of gift!!!
