Christmas Gift Ideas for Husbands

Attention, Husbands: Christmas Is Approaching

Shopping for any gift is hard. But when it some to Christmas gifts, it’s even harder. You have more than one to buy and with all the commercial hype, the pressure is on you. First rule: Don’t wait until the last minute. I know by nature men like to wait. That only means more crowds and less to choose.

First there are three no-no categories that we will call no-no gifts. If you want your gift to be special you should not buy these, unless your Lady comes straight out and says this is what she wants. If she asks for something you know she really want its.

No-No 1. Never buy household stuff, that means appliances and cookware items, too. Sure she may notice how shiny that new pot is and will probably say she loves it. But deep down, she will probably want to throw it at you.

No-No 2. Candles. Candles smell nice and may adorn your home. But they are too generic.

No-No 3. Collectibles and knick-knacks. After a woman has owned a home for five years or more, they usually have a house full of these items. Collectibles, like angels, cats, etc are always sweet. But beware of buying these. If she has been collecting for years, she may have too many and no space for them. Then they become a no-no.

Now here’s a list of ten ideas of what you could buy. Remember when shopping use your imagination, think of how much you love your Lady, how much you can spend and try to be thoughtful.

Good luck and happy shopping.

1. PERFUME - Ladies all love to smell delicious and sexy. If you don’t know her favorite brands, ask her. Better yet, ask a sales clerk about some of the new fragrances. And always smell the samples yourself. Chances are if you don’t like it, neither will your Lady.

2. A SUBSCRIPTION TO NET-FLEX, BLOCKBUSTER, ETC. - With this subscription your Lady can rent DVD’s from the comfort of your home via the computer, no standing in lines. Just keep the microwave popcorn handy.

3. STATIONERY - - Buy various styles with envelopes for both the computer and the old fashioned hand written letters.
