LubDub.com - Gifts for Your Wife or Girlfriend

Oh Honey, I Have Everything I Need

She looks at you with those beautiful eyes, and says, "Oh honey, you don't need to get me anything this year.  I have everything I need."  You sigh with relief, because you really don't have any idea what to get her, and you go about your business.

Wake up - she doesn't mean it!!!  Don't get lulled into that trap.  She's just going easy on you, because she knows you don't know what to get.  It's a test!  The holidays are like the Super Bowl of gift giving for you.  You may have lowered her expectations to this point, but it's time to get back in the game and show her how much you love her.

If you don't have ideas, that's why we're here.  LubDub.com has found can't miss gifts from all over the web to make your holiday gifts for her easier.

Not Too Practical

I’ll never forget our first Christmas after we were married.  My husband bought me the following gifts: a can opener, a doormat and a toaster.  He meant well, and yes, we needed all of those things, but not as gifts for his true love!!!  Needless to say, he learned the tough lesson that gifts aren’t supposed to be practical.  He took it well, and for the most part, still applies that advice today.

Many of you may have fallen into that trap, buying things that you know she needs.  Key bit of advice here – don’t buy her practical household items for gifts.  She may need it, but she doesn’t need it as a gift from you.  She can go to the store and buy it on her own.

That is why, on LubDub.com, we don't have many practical items.  We do have some products for the home, but they are things that she wouldn't buy for herself.  We highlight the best of the best gifts for her kitchen, bath and other little luxuries.

This post is exactly why we started LubDub.com, to help you find gifts for her that aren't practical!

Don't Forget the Card!

Picking the best gift for your wife or girlfriend is great, but don’t forget to get her a card too!  On many web sites, you can personalize the gift card that comes with the gift, but nothing beats an old fashioned greeting card with your written words in it.

Take a few minutes, stop by the corner drugstore, and buy her a card to give with the gift.  If you have time, you can even order those online here at Hallmark.com.  They have an especially good collection of birthday cards.  You can even have them personalize and mail the card for you.  I have mixed feelings about that, because it doesn't take any effort, and seems a bit impersonal.  But, we'll allow it every once in a while!

I’m not supposed to know, but my husband will buy 5 cards at a time, and save them in his drawer for when he needs them.  You can do that too – just don’t tell her about it.

It's the Thought that Counts

We've all heard that old saying, but for gift giving it is completely true.  The price of a gift doesn't matter.  We want to believe that you guys pined over your gift selection, and that a lot of thought went into it.  We don't want to imagine that you just walked to the corner drugstore and picked the first thing you found.

That is why we founded LubDub.com - to help you find thoughtful, classic gifts for your wife or girlfriend.  Let us do the hard part, and you get the fun part - giving the gift!
