How about a weekend away someplace? I was in the same predicament and then got her a night at Foxwoods. I just hope she takes me.

A note telling her Merry Christmas and that you will be glad to chauffer her around the week after Christmas so that she may pick out and buy anything she wants during all the after Holiday sales on items that cost as much as 75% the day before Christmas.
My wife and I don't exchange anything, we take care of our daughters and some close friends and take care of ourselves whenever we need something whatever time of year.
Saves money and you always get what you want.
Just being together as a family is enough for me.

Why even try.........

For the most part, so dont we. I love seeing the look on a happy face/child about a present we bought.
You know the NEBE idea is a good one. She likes different blown glass. We have a few pieces for Hot Flash Annie up in S'east Harbor, Maine. I'll have to stop by Nebes sometime. Maybe the next time Bigfish is heading that way.
Girlfriends pictures. Ummm. After about ten years of marriage I pulled out my wallet to pay for something and my wife spots a pictures that had been there for a number of years prior to our getting together. Needless to say when we got into the truck the picture was torn up. Sad day.

Put a coupla gift certificates for dinner at a nice place in her stocking. The girls seem to really like a night off now and then.
