Alrighty. So with Christmas rapidly approaching, i have to buy a gift for my girlfriend. Nothing too expensive, but something thoughtful. I suck at giving gifts, so i thought i'd consult you guys. Im sure you have some experience in this area :D

A gift certificate to the spa / message? Always seemes to work well.

Glad for the quick response guys. The certificate sounds like a pretty good idea. I'd thought about that, but was curious as to what else i could come up with

What are her hobbies and passions? Does she like to cook? Is she into crafts? What does she collect? Jewelry is always a winner, but make sure you know if she's into silver or gold. Spa Day is a great idea....something she'd probably not do for herself. How about a special weekend get-away for the two of you to a nice place that has a spa. You guys should be paying attention all year long...then the ideas are easy!

Tickets to a concert is a good one, IMO.

If you get a spa gift certificate, make up a nice package, such as a few products from Origins or Crabtree & Evelyn. Both these stores or counters within department stores, have nice gift packages ready to go.

If you go for jewelry, don't forget that Tiffany's has those pretty little blue boxes. I'd think about one of their silver charm bracelets. You'd have to get the charm engraved after Christmas. (No time now) And I'd go with the round charm vs. the heart shaped. More classic, less cutsey.:)
