Its getting close to christmas again and I have to find the gf a present. I got about £100 to spend and have no idea what to get her, jewellery is a no this year cos thats what I got her last year and the year before, shes into photography but I got her cameras and photo printer for her birthday last year, I can't find alot and she is no use cos she always chooses summat thats about a tenner and says I'll be happy with that and then spends a bloody fortune on me, like last year she brought me a stereo that does just about everything and I'm guessing was close to £300, but every year she gets me a great present and I end up buying her at last minute and thinking I could of got her something better.
This year I'm truly foxed so could I have some suggestions I've browsed the web for days and spent so much time in town the people are starting to think I'm lost and can't find my way home.
I know alot of blokes have the same problem at this time of year but please any suggestions.

You could always get her one of the more expensive digital photo frames if she likes photography.

The bottom one, although out of stock on this particular site, seems ok.

thanks wizz, nsr but she got 1 that she doesn't use already, yeah we got burgled last month but the stuff that got took the items I would replace won't be covered by the £100 quid unfortunately mainly game consoles, laptops, games and money, the stuff that I could replace I can't without replacing the consoles or laptops, which unfortunately aren't in my budget. Sad

Does she drive? How about a driving experience? My boyf bought me a race track experience for xmas a few years back and that was a fantastic present.

And these things tend to come in a big box so you can wrap them up and stick it under the tree so she's still got something to open.


Or does she like being on the other side of the camera lens? If so, how about some vouchers for a photoshoot?

she likes to be taking the pics and I thought about getting stuff for her slr camera but everything I looked at is so expensive, she has shed loads of pampering stuff too like the massage mats and hair straightenersand stuff I'll have a look at the driving thing though, thanks sk8wheeler, you could say she a bit of a spoilt bitch because she has loads of stuff which is why I'm struggling but keep the ideas coming and thanks guys. Very Happy

Not sure what stuff she has, but there should be other things. Tripod? Set of decent filters (such as circular polarisers, etc)? Decent camera bag?

All the best

Or a spa day somewhere - there are places around that do couples spa days where they leave you alone in the treatment rooms so you can, er, treat yourselves if you follow my meaning... Wink

Just trying to think of the things I like, but I know I'm a fairly atypical female. Best of luck!

Can't go wrong with underwear. It shows you pay enough attention to know their size (obviously make sure you buy the correct size Rolling Eyes ), provided you buy something that suits them it will make them feel sexy (on the same note, if you get it right, it'll show them you find them sexy too, which normally has "fun" results!) and above all you get to "browse" a load of pics of women in their undies... In the name of research!!! I've bought this for my missus for crimbo:
https://www.fairygothmother.co.uk/newimages4/fgm-evebabydolls.jpg

Try www.Figleaves.com... they have a really easy order process and some really tasteful stuff. The babydoll pictured is from https://www.fairygothmother.co.uk/lingerie.htm, but as the company name would suggest, they're more a goth/corset style lingerie supplier.

I bought one mainly for the other half around May this year, the all singing all dancing version with the Wii Fit, balance board and all that malarky, apart from me playing Zelda and House Of The Dead ( shite game-to easy ) it hardly gets used, she keeps saying it'll get more use though...

Don't know wether you get the Bargain Pages by you, but there was a load of them in there the other day for around 150 notes the same as I've described above...

Bah, I came here for ideas for myself but got none.

Instead, I'll leave an idea - if she is fond of animals, how about a Bird of Prey experience i.e flying eagles, hawks, falcons etc?

Now I'm not that much of a Bird person, but in the last year I've got up close to some of these birds at Warwick Castle and Prague Zoo and think they are fantastic creatures - especially the mahoosive eagles.

'tis what my missus is getting this year anyway....

I had the same problem with no one using it until I did the twilight hack on it. There are very few really good games for the wii just variations on a theme but since I can just download the games now, and seperate the wheat from the chaff that way, it's actually getting more use.

Any that are actually any good do get bought though because the copied discs don't seem to last very long in the wii.

"real" women and serious girlfriends usually prefer something with a bit of thought and meaning in my experience.What it cost doesnt matter to them,its how much it "touches" them that counts.
I dont know your missus,or what makes her tick,so i cant offer any suggestions,but if you stick close to what i said above im sure she will be very happy. Wink
Sincerity is the key to success....not value.
