I got this girl i dated a few years back Pacers tickets, this girl knew zero about sports and to my amazement she wasn't very happy with that gift. To make a long story short she is no longer a girl i am dating and i went to the game with my brother. I feel like i came out on top

I bought my girlfriend a diamond necklace off of amazon. I know it's amazon, why would I buy jewelry from there, but it was very high quality and I bought it on Black Friday for about 65%

I bought the girlfriend plane tickets to Denver to see one of her best friends from college that she hardly get to see anymore. Best part is, I am going also and I get to go see one of my best friends from college and get shit canned this weekend with him and do hood rat stuff in Denver.

I also bought her a sound bar that she wanted for our TV. Yes you read that correctly, SHE wanted the sound bar. So I also get a sound bar because we live together. I picked out one that u can sync via Bluetooth to either your phone or laptop and it was under $200.

Third, her laptop need to get fixed, and in order to do that she needs an external hard drive to save all of her pictures to before the laptop can get whiped. Guess what!? I also need an external hard drive to save all of my music!!!

So yeah, im a piece of crap boyfriend, but you can never say I didn't get her exactly what she wanted...

I use this logic every year when I get my wife a bottle of MacCallan 18 year old.

The items on my wife's list are all purchased. Problem is they were purchased by her parents and brother and now I'm stuck trying to figure out what to get her. So far I've bought her a scarf. A $10 scarf.

I think we're buying each other phones this year, and we're switching cell phone carriers to a 3rd party where we can get data/texting/minutes all cheap. Yeah, we're a little behind, but mostly because we've got gaming desktops/laptops and tablets a plenty already, so there was never a need for a phone with a data plan..

But buy your Wife a car because you need a new one and just happen to pass it off as a gift all of a sudden you're Uncle Moneybags.

My mom always has some exotic gift or something hard as hell to freaking find as her only suggestions... drives us all nuts, so this year I flat out told her, "Mom, go to Best Buy and then Target, and pick some shit out you would want... otherwise you're just getting gift cards.... to Best buy and Target"....

Guys, if you are shopping for your/a lady I have the best advice for you. Like most girls your wife, girlfriend, sister, mom, etc probably uses Pinterest on a daily basis (mine does). If you can find her profile page you will find a cornucopia of gifts to buy her. Everything listed on her profile page are items she likes with direct links on where to buy them. This is a no brainer and you will look like you've been listening to her all along.

Trust me on this one.

The easiest way to find a page would be to google "Pinterest her name"

1. She is still a she, she could also be confused for the devil. A GIRL DEVIL?!?!

2. Yes i went to the game with my brother, got incredibly drunk and enjoyed myself. My point was that if she was going to be that upset about me trying to buy her a nice date night Christmas present then she probably wasn't the one for me, which explains why i feel like i came out on top.

I know you had a few too many at the game, but why were you on top of your brother?

That's gross... :naughty:

Sorry to sidetrack, but that comment reminded me of this scene.
