I'm the same way I like getting practical gifts, like tools, work boots, gloves. I have a hard time spending money on jewelry and I am done trying to buy her any kind of clothing. x's 2, waste of money, the guys who buy their wives jewelry are usually the ones deprived of a sex life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev144 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 my girl just wanted earrings from walmart for $23 and that was it. I can't complain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hayward Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) I've bought her jewelry off and on over the years and she knocked everything to jesus pieces, now it all lays in a heap who knows where in a drawer. Two years ago I figured well, i'll buy her some nice clothes that she looks good in and I enjoy looking at. Tight shirts, tight sweaters, etc. Yup, all got taken back and exchanged just as I expected. "it's just not my style". Yeah I give up now.

My wife and I usually just buy what we want then wrap it for something to give ourselves. She's "giving me" some new tools. Not sure what I'm "giving her". I'm sure I'll find it stupid and expensive though. It's pretty much been all about our daughter since she was born. Just about done with her list. Spoiled brat! Gotta pick up some extra goodies for our pups this week and a prime rib roast for us and that should do it! Damn cats have pretty much made our tree look like haggard ass so can't wait to get rid of that shrub after Christmas. We use to do our gift giving like that too ,but this year is different lol. For some reason our cat could care less about the tree. He probably knows it's fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no prob spending cash on coins and bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, always goes over much much better than a hedge trimmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin george Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 I used to buy the wife these miniature clocks and now she has a whole collection. I buy her a nice pair of earrings now and the occasional bottle of perfume. We buy things throughout the year so something simple for the thought is good enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
