We went to a food and wine festival this summer and DH tried this one sparkling wine and was raving about it. I'm 90% sure he doesn't even know I know this because I was realllly drunk at the time. So I bought him 5 bottles of it. I also got him a pound of Jonboy caramels, which I've bought for him for Christmas for the last couple of years. I'm excited to see him open the wine.
We don’t typically exchange gifts now that we have kids, but we decided to do one small gift for each other this year.
Pretty much every man in my life wears by Saxx underwear. Apparently they’re best invention ever cause they separate your parts or something, haha I don’t know.
Anyway they’re now making swim trunks with the underwear built into them, so I ordered a pair for my H for our trip to Mexico in March.

Under the tree, a new Kindle Fire and case
In his stocking: - another tube of Dr. Brandt Pore Dermabrasion - his favorite razors - deodorant - a bag of his favorite nuts - a bag of his favorite candy (Reese's cups) - four Tile Mates - a car charger for his cell phone - a back scratcher
We don’t usually really exchange anything but I grabbed a bunch of stuff from old navy when I was in a shopping mood - pajamas, some sweaters, and a knit hat.
He doesn’t really have any hobbies and buys what he wants so it makes it really hard to shop for!
A new backpack which is what he likes to use for transporting his fitness clothes and laptop. A wall hanger for his tournament medals. Tile trackers, Samsung wireless buds, a fuzzy blanket.
Not entirely. But bc of the new roof we set a limit and I got him the LEGO Harry Potter great hall set. He knows that I got it. Being an adult at Christmas is lame sometimes.
H tried out Bombas socks this year and loved them, so he’s getting a couple packs of those. I also found a Bob Ross t-shirt at Kohl’s I think he will enjoy wearing on the weekends, and I’m sure he’ll have a good laugh when he opens it. Oh, and chocolates from the candy store near his grandmas that he had as a kid- which are delicious but have definitely lost their wow factor, he was in awe the first year I found them and now they’re an every Christmas treat.
His big gift is a visit with a sea otter at Shedd Aquarium. He LOVES otters. He is going to flip! I keep teasing him and telling him to get to stretching so he'll be ready for the flip on Christmas morning.
omg my husband loves otters too! He would love this gift.
My husband is impossible to buy for and basically hates presents, so that’s fun. Right now for him, I have a shirt with our town’s high school name on it from Target to wear when he’s time keeping for the kid’s basketball team, a book about Wawa convenience stores I got at the used book sale, a pair of Nintendo socks the kids picked out at H&M, and some Reese cups for his stocking. I would like to get him more, maybe comedy tickets for us, not sure yet.
Leather gloves, some specific computer stuff, pj pants, a hat, an amazon gift card, his favorite candy. Everything except the candy and pj pants were on his amazon list.
My H absolutely loves those fluffy Mickey waffles they make at Disney, and they released a waffle maker that makes them for Mickey’s 90th anniversary, so I bought that. It may not be exact, but it’s close. I also got him a new monitor for his computer (he does flight simulator), cheap wireless earbuds for running, and I bought both boys and H coordinating Toy Story t-shirts for our upcoming Disney trip. (He won’t wear it in real life, but we go to Disney World yearly since the ILs live nearby and he’ll wear it there.)
We did a Nintendo Switch this year as a family present, so we are keeping it small.
He's getting PJs from JCrew, a bunch of small planner accessories (he's a teacher), a calendar from Japan. His stocking will have some small cooking supplies, pair of boxers, Snickers and other small odds and ends.
a backpacking/wilderness survival kit thing (https://www.vsslgear.com/ if you are interested) tshirt that says "sorry I'm late I didn't want to come" Apollo 11 commemorative silver dollar

I’m feeling like the lamest of lames, but my H is getting nothing because he bought a Peleton on Black Friday. I can’t think of a single thing to get him otherwise.

Something to go with the peloton? A sweat towel? Work out socks? A funny Peleton shirt?

Maybe some Peloton accessories? Their website shows a water bottle, headphones, or Heart Rate Monitor.
Or the bike is big enough to be an entire present and that's OK too

Nothing really. He’s kind of a grinch about presents, so I’ve started putting in his level of attention to them for him (none). He doesn’t care, so it makes my life easier and I don’t feel as terrible that he phones it in for me.The last few years we’ve just done a big house project that we’ve been putting off as our present to each other. This year he is going to install shelves into a few closets that have been without since we did our addition. I am treating myself to a new custom built in display cabinet since he got a big bonus and raise 🤷🏼♀️
Oh... I did get him and the 6 yo lightsabers from each other since they each told me separately that the other should get one.
Weighted Blanket Tervis tumblers with his NCAA team Book about the Old Fashioned drink and recipes New Sanuk shoes Caramels Some nice golf pants for work Golf balls 6 months of kindle unlimited
I bought MH a button up shirt from Amazon Basics. He bought himself one a few months ago and really liked it, so I just ordered it in a different color.
He received a crap-ton of Amazon packages today and remarked, “These are Christmas presents - and I got myself a few more of those shirts.”
