What to buy the wife for Christmas?

This year, we’ve bought what we wanted and have given it to each other to wrap up for Christmas. My memory is sh*t anyway so Ive forgotten most of what I bought.
We’ve booked a short break for the new year so we’re both happy with that.
She doesn’t know yet but I’ve also bought her a pair of ‘I love parmos’ socks, she’ll be thrilled 😝

I've invented a set of twin girls that I buy presents for myself and say to the wife 'Look at what the twins have bought me.'

We have two boys. 🤣🤣🤣

Edit: I've just told the wife I've put this on here and she said 'Don't forget the little fella.' I bought myself an expensive tool a few weeks back and she said 'I bet that's from the twins?' 'No, it's from the little fella,' I replied. 🤣 🤣 🤣
 
My mrs is Gluten Free, so she's getting a hamper im making up with a load of GF biscuits and goodies, the price of them is disgusting so she's getting half the gear she'd get if she wasn't GF.
She wants a smart ring, but i think i'll swerve that, they're expensive and she'll lose it.
We're going away in Jan, so ill just stuff some Euros in an envelope and i'll probably grab some of the fancy shampoo she likes, probably some pyjamas and ill book us a night away somewhere later in the year and some smellies.

We've just been to France for the Christmas markets and treated ourselves then. Both of us don't need anything and would rather spend money on each other during the summer when we're on holiday.

I've got the added bonus of it being her birthday today and our Wedding Anniversary on Friday.

Yeah we've said that we dont need anything, we're both in a position where (within reason!) we buy the things we want, when we want them or we save up and get them, there isnt anything either of us really want or need, but we buy each other gifts so the kids see us open presents. She has 2 kids to her previous partner and i have 3 to my ex wife, so we'll usually just buy each other some bits and pieces, nowt really major, but the kids like seeing us open gifts and even slippers, socks, a new drill bit set whatever, when they see me open it and i give that oooooo great, i need this, they love it. When all the kids are grown, Christmas will look very different i imagine we might make more effort to surprise each other then, as we'll also have alot more money to spend!
 
One the pressies I’ve got mine is a pure silk pillow with silk hair wrap and mask .. or something like that . All the rage at the moment for supposedly keeping hair nice and skin (less) wrinkley…

…… gonna try it on me nut sack if she doesn’t like it
 
We don't bother at all with cards or presents whether its birthdays, anniversaries or Christmas. It just seems like a lot of effort for no good reason.
