I can tell you the best present my hubby got me -bras. Yes he has given me jewelry, roses, collectables etc. but the bras are my favorite and I’ll tell you why.
I’m generally frugal and have a hard time buying things for myself. My husband heard me repeatedly complaining about needing new bras but I never actually would go buy any. He went to the mall w/o me one weekend and went bra shopping. He quickly found out how expensive a bra can be when he first stopped at Victoria’s Secret. After going to several dept stores he headed out of the Mall and to Kohl’s dept store and was thrilled they were having a bra sale.
He perused the bra dept. He made sure the bras he picked didn’t have underwire because he’d heard me crabbing about my uncomfortable underwire bras. He actually felt the bras to “make sure they weren’t scatchy.” I’m sure the sales people must of thought he had some strange fetish. The bras he picked were were not sexy lacey bras. I probably wouldn’t have picked them either because I would have thought he would think they were too plain, but they were
very comfortable. He wrapped them up and put them under the tree for Christmas.
It was my best gift because he put so much thought and effort into and kind of had to move out his comfort zone and into the ladies undergarment department.
After the required “shame on you” my little instruction manual was full of humorous suggestions. Gosh, most days living with a husband requires quite a mature and developed sense of humor on the part of us wives!! Anyway…happy shopping, guys.
