Original gift for the Girlfriend

Amp34 · 24 Nov 2009 at 20:30

I'm just starting to think of a christmas present for my girlfriend and want something original (although the usual perfume/jewelery is a last resort). Any suggestions?

As for her shes quite adventurous, fun and likes a good joke (not stuck up). For her birthday I got her zorbing, so something like that is a bit of a no no. Price around £50 ish.

(Yeah I know I should be thinking of it for myself but help is always useful

)

One of those red letter day things, 4x4 off-roading. Got one for the wife and she loved it.

Bit over your budget but it should get her overclock up to 3.6+ with better temps than air.

I did wonder about that but I got her something similar for her birthday so don't really want to go down the same sort of route for christmas.

Slankets rock - bought the Mrs one for her birthday and she loves it.....kids like it so got one each for them for christmas!

Major brownie points for the pressie and the added bonus of turning down the central heating and saving a few pennies!

A good smash?

Or in my Dad's case, a chainsaw for their 25th anniversary PMSL! She was not amused atall was my mum.

Spa & Beauty Treatments. You can get vouchers for her to choose, like nails or massage, facials etc.

What's she into?

Hannah Montana memorabilia, you could probably get quite a few bits for £50. I recommend mouse and mousemat.

A pair of oven gloves and some tea towels? She might as well get used to her role in life now

She can cook, sort of...
She can clean, not that I live with her...
She can...

Shes quite adventurous, so walking, climbing etc as well as the usual girly things. At the moment she's also a student so...

I'd love to take her on a suprise holiday or something like that but am not rich enough unfortunately so something smaller will have to do!

Hmmm, unfortunately (well fortunately really), she's not 12...

You're never too old for Hannah Montana!
