    I bought her a semi-decent NordicTrack treadmill - per her request. The biggest gift will be getting that behemoth upstairs to the bonus room.

    But then I got to thinking…when her friends, family and co-workers ask, “What did your husband get you for Christmas?”, if she says a treadmill, then I come off looking like a class A douche.

    So to add to the haul…
    a pair of MissMe jeans
    some perfume that she really likes
    a very nice ring from Zales so she can flash the bling.

    Wat! There is no referral, just who ever is interested in unique gifts, RedEnvelope is a good website for it.

    No idea. I told her to pick them out and get them off blue Nile. I'm romantic like that.

    Smart. We'll give each other a couple ideas for what we want, but if we're going to spend money on each other, we better damn know the other person is going to like it. :)

    anybody know where i can find "mom" jewelry that isn't tacky/cheap looking? I'm not talking about multiple thousand dollar stuff, but a lot of the "kids name on a pendant on a necklace" you see online looks like it was sold at a mall kiosk

    Ask Thadeus. He probably takes stuff from all of our mothers houses when he's done and they're washing up.

    My wife has been drooling for a while over a badass pasta roller that she used when she was a pastiola. It's something she will love but also will be a lifelong investment that will wind up in her restaurant when she eventually opens one.

    Just missed some great opportunities.

    Tablets:
    Kindle Fire HD
    Nexus 7 (probably better, unless you need Amazon specific stuff, since it has Android market)

    Watch slickdeals.net or fatwallet.com for a good laptop deal.
