I'm in trouble. I have a few days to get my girlfriend something for Christmas...
Worse yet, her birthday is Dec 25 also.

So yea, I need to figure something out. Help!
We've been dating for just under a year (it's a year in late January)

Any ideas guys?

if she is into jewelry, get her some earrings or a necklace. if she likes shopping, take her to a store and tell her its on you. gift card can also work but by being there in person it will be more of a gift than just giving her money. been down that road. you can also arrange a body massage at a day spa.

good luck

i got my present out of the way early on, a necklace. retail price was $1,225

Don't panic. There are very few problems that can't be solved by throwing a bunch of money at it. What does she like?

SATownScion

not unless she wants something from the heart, then you are screwed. money wont help

I mean, honestly, she needs a new iPod and she wants an xbox360... so I mean, I have some options, I guess I was just hoping for something better.

Jewelery is an option, but she likes vintage stuff, not sure where to get any of that.

True...BUT, if you get a nice enough gift, their eyes glaze over and they tend to forget about those things. I've been happily married for 21 years. I've learned a few things. My wife is ultra-practical so extravagant gifts don't always work for her. You have to figure out what works in your situation. For example, my wife isn't impressed by jewelry. She would see it as a waste of money. But she LOVES to get away and do things. A nice weekend away or a fun vacation will work every time. Ya just gotta know your woman!

definitely not jewelry.. not yet and not anytime soon.

get her a cute lil ipod nano, the new one. take it out of the package and load it up with her itunes AND make a short but sweet playlist of your guys' "songs" (first date song, romantic, etc). women love that ____.

knock her up

burstaneurysm

That's brilliant. She'd effin love that.

One suggestion I have is don't give her a combined Birthday/Christmas gift. With her B-day landing on a holiday she's probably gotten screwed out of gifts her whole life. If you give her one as a B-Day gift (wrapped in B-day paper) and a second gift as a Christmas gift, I bet she really appreciates it. There's a chance that nobody has ever done that for her before. Big points for you.

your gf wants an xbox 360? Does she have a sister?

burstaneurysm

I'm pretty sure that'd be the worst present for both of us.

burstaneurysm

Haha, yea, seriously. I'm pretty sure if I got her one with a live account and Halo 3, I'd never see her again.

Waffle Iron. Nothing says "I love you, make me breakfast" like a waffle iron.

just some advice, u do not want to get her somthing too expensive b.c then in the future she will have higher expectations.

an ipod touch is a great gift. i got one for my gf and she loves it.

ippskidder

if she gets an ipod touch, then she'll want an iphone, lol.

Well thats my guess at least ^^

get her a turbo, if she says she doesn't want it say that you'll take it
