[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I give DH a list every year or else I am going to end up with some sort of electronic game device that he wants me to love that I could care less about. On this list are items ranging from $2 to several hundred, anywhere from 10-20 items, and I just let him choose. This way he gets to pick, the element of surprise is there, I still get something I like. [/quote] This is what I do. My husband would really prefer it if I find what I want, buy it, and just tell him that I got my Christmas/birthday present. That's the way they tend to do things in his family, and that way he knows I'm getting what I want (he tends to have a lot of anxiety around gift giving). On occasion, if I happen across something perfect, I will do that. In general, though, I like to be surprised a little bit. So, the list lets me have a surprise and he knows he's getting something I'll like.[/quote]
