Thankfully my wife has done a wishlist so she's made it easy for me.

So far:
A poster/print
Nail kit and polish
An earring (singular)
A heated blanket

I think more will be required.

Over to you.

My wife wanted hair extensions and I wanted a Chess Up - both coming in at just under £300. We've actually spent more on ourselves than our kids this year - mainly because she started buying for them early on and we left ourselves til the last minute.
 
A bean to cup coffee machine with latte/cappucino function as she (and I) loves a nice coffee.

Some nice canvases of the kids, and some smaller trinkets/bits to bulk out under the tree.

I had other things that were meant to be for Christmas, but as her birthday was at the end of November, some stuff was brought forward to cheer her up after a run of bad news.
 
I like to keep a note of everything she likes the look of or spies online and I buy it throughout the year. Some of what I've brought has been hidden since March. It's great! By the time Christmas comes around I look like Mr Big who knows her tastes impeccably :P

Kindle
Accessories for kindle (case, stickers etc.)
Few bits of merch from bands she likes
Perfume
Candles
Few bits of jewelry and clothing

To be honest a lot of the online stuff has gone straight to my parents so not entirely sure what I've already brought...
 
Similar, limited to £50.

The challenge is half the fun. One year I tried to spend exactly £50 and got very close but failed, so had to tape a 1p coin to a chocolate bar.
 
we agreed to buy nothing because we dont need anything... so obviously its no fun with no presents...
so i bought her a 100ml bottle of perfume, some novelty socks and a calendar 2024.
My family is coming to Sweden this year and we have tons of stuff for everyone else, it should be a lot of cold, dark fun :P
