The "What did you buy today?" thread...

We dont buy gifts for Christmas either. Except I buy something for my wife. I'm kinda partial to breathing!

My wife and I never give each other either because we just buy what we want all year long.

Honestly thats me and my wife. I still buy her a token gift for Christmas but she doesn't like me to.

Same here. We used to, but after being married so long, we already knew what each wanted so there was not much surprise to it.

We stopped buying Christmas gifts for everyone else, after each of the nieces and nephews turned 18.

I sneek in a gift once in a while throughout the year for my wife, she deserves it. She works her ass off taking care of me.

I'd like to do the same for my wife, as she's a very hard worker. She works full time (and has done really well in her job. 20 years with the company) as well a being a full time mother of 2 and a carer to her mother. Also a awesome wife.

The problem is, she is hard to buy for as she has no hobbies and doesn't collect. She doesn't really like flowers, or chocolates. She loves planning holidays (she's an organiser) but I can't gift that. she deserves more.

Sounds like you should get her a pool boy.

You mean, for while I'm away for work?

Same with my wife. She is retired but she love to lounge and read from sun up to sun down. I have no problem with that as mention earlier, she takes good care of me.

One Traxxas part to five Associated parts.... that doesn't fit the narrative.

I didn't buy anything today, even brought my lunch to work.

Tools. Knipex tools are the best.
