I don't really know what to get my fiancee. I got her clothes all the other Christmas so I want to get something different. I'm not asking what should I get my fiancee, I want to know what you guys are getting your significant others and maybe I can get some ideas.

Wow. I heard about it and it looks like a real competitor for the Kindle. I think B&N made limited quantities just to raise the hype.

So let me get this straight..... You're getting your significant other the same necklace that you got for your girlfriend last year?

I salute you.

I'm sure he's not purchasing the exact same one I bought for my gf last year, but it's probably something similar if it is a heart design. I believe the style I bought is no longer made.

I will be drawing my wife a picture of our wedding rings interlocked together. We'll see about this though. I used to be a VERY good artist, but have not drawn anything over the past five years. I hope I can pick up where I left off.

I also got her a four-month membership to a Wine of the Month club, and Jacksonville Symphony tickets.

Hell yes. That's a win for both of you.

Get the video too and they'll probably make some cheesy couples Christmas thing out of it if you ask them to.

I'm taking her this Saturday to the holiday music one. Should be good. I'm really starting to get into classical and instrumental music now. Two decent tickets ran me $68 with the included fees.

Nice dude! Unfortunately I can't find a picture of the one I got my girlfriend last year

You can't go wrong with half off either! Lucky ass. Now that you have gotten something from Tiffany's, they will be sending you catalogs in the mail. Be sure to keep that away from your girlfriend. Trust me, I know from experience

Nothing!

She says she doesn't want anything, and I don't have anything I want her to get me either.

Oh, I did get her some gifts for our 15th anniversary last month.

She actually wanted some practical stuff - new pot/pan set and a crockpot. I added a 32G iTouch so I wouldn't look like a complete bastard.

Same here...I hope it's not a trap

But our anniversary is on the 29th, so I probably have to get her something for that.
