any idea for an Xmas present for the wife??.. she is a very pratical person and does not like jewellery, expensive LV bags etc
A cordless drill.
Does she have an un-married sister with a similar disposition?
30,000NT
A tattoo.
How about a spa day? Or a weekend spa package?
Mine wanted a camera.
Do you know what cosmetics she likes? Maybe get her a gift certificate, or moisturizers, or something like that.
Favourite perfume?
Jewelry?
Ticket to something/somewhere?
Major dinner/night at nice hotel?
How about a gift pack from Occitaine? They make good stuff, and their soap and shampoo lasts a really long time (though it’s of course a lot more expensive than the standard junk sold at supermarkets). Maybe a nice shampoo, soap, and moisturizer set (and/or massage oil).
It’s practical, personal, and the sort of thing a lot of people wouldn’t ordinarily buy for themselves but like to receive as gifts.
Just got the wife a purse made from a Kangaroo scrotum. Good shape if she wants to carry marbles around.
Thought it was different and then I bought a gold necklace to put inside.
The same as somebody else wrote I also got a day at BEingSpa for her. Including facial, nails etc.
Got mine books, shoes and a trip to the Spa. Really looking forward to my day alone…
Thanks for your suggestions… I got her a couple of things at the end
- A couple of hours at a spa
- One of those foot jaccuzzi massagers since she always says her feet are tired at the end of the day
BTW aidiming…her sister is enagaged so your out of luck
Great idea, and this is a gift I would like to give to my wife.
Any recommendations for spas in Taipei? I know that there seems to be one on every corner, but if anyone could recommend a good one, I would be grateful.
I wouldn’t mind paying more for a spa that offers top quality services. How much does a day (or a couple of hours) at a spa cost anyway?
Thanks.
Don’t forget the lingerie!
I brought Lush .
Everybody likes Lush.
It’s December 24th! Last minute boyfriends and husbands, you guys!
Fee, if you are still looking for a spa, you can pm me. I don’t want to butt in when the OP has found the gift he wanted already.
Merry Christmas all!
I wish I understood girlie stuff. She hinted that lipstick would be good, but I have no idea which one is good.
if you use a mirror and take your time, I’m sure she will be pleased with whatever color you put on.
I hate those snooty salesgirls at sogo. They won’t speak English. And they charge 750 for a lipstick. I found a cheaper one though. All I had to do was scrape off the picture of Barbie.
