Does Hubby Know What to Get You for Xmas? POLL

My hubby is totally clueless what to get me for xmas, every single year we have arguments over this.

He refuses to go shopping with me so he can learn things I may like. Refuses to pick up hints and constantly makes excuses that I don't tell him anything.

I swear I have to make a list for him otherwise I will be getting another orange non-petite sweater that doesn't fit.

:P

What about you ladies? Does your husband know what to get you?

He always knows exactly what to get me (with the exception of one birthday gift).

I'm a lucky girl! Chat Icon

LOL...I give him a list to pass around to my parents, inlaws, siblings, etc. Plus I drop hints of things that I want from him. But after 10 years he is pretty good - especially with jewelry which is basically all he gets me and all I need Chat Icon

life is too short to wait around for him to figure it out-

My husband is actually pretty good when it comes to getting me gifts. He always picks up on hints or remembers things that I may have said i like or wanted in the past. Chat Icon

I have a tendency to directly tell him what I want for Chanukah. Last year, it was a Herve Chepalier bag for work.

This year, I need a new compact digital camera, and he still owes me a 3rd anniversary present, so I think it's going to be a combo gift. I'm going with him to B&H tomorrow to have a look at the cameras that I'm interested in!

Re: Does Hubby Know What to Get You for Xmas? POLL

I put down "Don't know". DW will often give hints, or outright lists, but the vast majority of the time, I actually listen to her during the year, and she'll mention something in conversation, and I'll remember it at holiday time. I've pleasantly surprised her on numerous b-days and holidays. Sometimes I'll get her things that she forgot she wanted... Chat Icon Chat Icon

Some years, I do have to ask her for a list, though... I may be great, but I'm not perfect.... Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
