We love ours!

Holy cow - I must be married to a strange other species because my DH would laugh at virtually all of this stuff. I’m glad we don’t give gifts!

This is a great idea- but I just went on their website and you can't use it via roku/amazon/apple tv. Have you done this before? How are you redeeming it?

I have a Britbox subscription through Prime.

The responses here have included a wide range of stuff…what’s something your husband wouldn’t “laugh at” if he received it as a gift?

A woodworking table. He picked it out and sent me the link.

Tickets to a comedian he loves
Fancy pour over coffee accessories: a new kettle and coffee from a random obscure roaster he thinks is the best, as well as his favorite blend from our local artisanal shop
A weird home improvement tool he asked for

And made sure his gifts from my family are all stuff he wants/loves (books by his favorite author, gift cards to where he likes to get shirts).

I should have said he wouldn’t appreciate them rather than “laugh at.” I was not trying to mock anyone. He has many things listed by PPs and doesn’t really use them (solo stove is a perfect example). I have no idea what I would give him as a gift that he would like. Probably a stash of edibles.

Men are not easy to shop for!

No they are not! -OP

Edibles… Nice!

However, people can't be gifted so having a baby isn't a gift to your husband.

This site is always just overflowing with goodwill

Congrats new mom PP! And yes, that’s the most precious gift on earth - parenthood.

It really does take all kinds. I’m glad my DH is a thoughtful and generous gift-giver and is happy with pretty much anything we give him, and I would be really bummed (and probably concerned) if all he wanted was edibles. It amazes me when spouses say they don’t ever exchange gifts and I don’t understand it - why not celebrate big occasions or accomplishments with something thoughtful? It sounds joyless not to, and certainly doesn’t make the abstainers more enlightened or morally superior (which seems to be the message trying to be sent).
