I know I am really bad at this but you guys seem to come up with great ideas for me and help me out so much. This time I am looking for a gift for a couple. I know it seems like I am panicing a bit early for Christmas but I have to get my friend's and her family gifts sorted out because another friend of mine will be delivering it for me so I need to have it ready for when she goes. What I am looking for is a gift for my friend and her husband, so an ideal gift for a couple. She has a weight problem so I don't want to get anything food related and I bought them a photo frame last year. So have you got any ideas of what I could get them that is not too expensive? Thanks in advance for your help!!

How about a gift card to a movie they would both enjoy or something in that order. That way they could pick out something they both like. Have a great weekend.

Hi ANTIQUELADY Hmmm that is a lovely idea but they never go out together, they have 3 kids and when she gets home from work he goes out! Not a very close couple. Thanks

I would concentrate on something nice for her & not worry about him. Don't like the sound of him, lol.

No I don't particularly like him either but they come as a couple, unfortunately!

A gift membership for a gym or an exercise machine? Hmmm I think your frame gift is a safer better option. My wife has weight issues and right now we can do with an exercise machine. I don't know if she would take it as an offence if someone gave her such gift.

hi humbug25 well having read the other responses and your comments I would have to suggest a gift card for their favorite store so they could select something that they both liked and would want but wou ldnt buy for themselves.

Hi ya Hatley I know gift cards are good but I hate it when people know how much (or how little) you have spent on them hahaha Thanks

I have been thinking of couple gifts also and will share what I have thought about for the people I know. Travel magazines. There are several magazines that about my state and the points of interest within and I have decided to give a subscription as a gift to some friends who love to travel but have to do so on a budget. If they live close to a theatre you could purchase tickets or a gift card from the theatre for them to have a nice date night, or movie thatre gift certificates. I will be buying on couple some fishing tackle because they love to go fishing together and with their kids. I will be buying camping gear this year for a sister because her family spends their weekends in a tent camping. If they are not the type to do a bunch of things together then you could buy a cute little container and fill it with small gifts for the family such as candels, dominoes, and a deck of cards.

Hi ya okkidokitokki Ah now the container of lots of little things sounds like a good idea. I think he will knock it whatever I give them but if I don't include him then he is gonna get funny! They don't ever really do anything together so it is really tricky. Thanks
