What do I get my wife when she has everything?
Is your wife the kind of woman that’s a nightmare to buy for because she literally already has it all? Then it’s time to think outside the box and give her a gift she won’t be expecting.
Finding a gift for the wife who has everything can be challenging, but here are some thoughtful ideas:
Experiences
Pick an activity that you know is on her bucket list, and make it happen.
Quality Time
The gift of time together is one that’s often much needed. Book yourselves a weekend away, or an afternoon at the spa to reconnect.
Personalized Gifts
She might have it all, but I bet she doesn’t have the personalized version of everything! Add a bit of luxury with a personalized journal, bag or accessory.
Self-Care Kit
We all need an excuse for self-care, and putting together a kit for your wife is the best way to show her you’re grateful for everything she does.
Workshops and Classes
Challenge her to take on a new hobby with a workshop or class. Everything from pottery to salsa will bring new memories and a sense of accomplishment.
Ultimately, the best gifts often come from understanding her preferences and what will make her feel special, and these xmas gifts for your wife are sure to hit the spot.
How much should I spend on my wife's Christmas gift?
The amount to spend on a gift for your wife really depends on a lot of different factors, and often it’s a good idea to have a chat about it, and decide a budget together - especially if you share finances!
It’s important to stay within a comfortable financial range - she wouldn’t want you to go bankrupt getting her something special, and with a bit of thought and care, the price of the gift really isn’t so important.
On average, people tend to spend between $50 and $300, but this does completely vary based on your own unique circumstances. Reflect on past gifts exchanged between you two; matching the sentiment or price point can help guide you.
In the end, it’s the thought, effort, and love behind the gift that counts far more than the price tag.
