We’re getting down to the nitty gritty for Christmas shopping.
This time I would like to share a tradition that I did for my wife last year. It’s modeled after the 12 days of Christmas. What I did was make coupons for her for each of the days. You can of course tailor this to fit your hubby, wife or even the kids.
Day 12 - A magazine subscription to the magazine of her choice.
Day 11 - I gave her a coupon for 11 of a certain denomination of a bill (it could be 1,2,5,10,20,50 or for you big spenders 100).
Day 10 - ten back rubs
Day 9 - pairs of socks
Day 8 - skeins of yarn (she loves to crochet)
Day 7 - days off (I work at home, she picks up the kids from school, takes them to school)
Day 6 - Breakfasts in bed
Day 5 - pieces of lingerie
Day 4 - nights on the town
Day 3 - candle light dinners at home ( I cook ).
Day 2 - Total house cleanings
Day 1 - One weekend get away
Hopefully that you gives you some ideas for something special for someone you love.
Next week we’ll be giving you some last minute (cheap) gift ideas. Five or so per day.
Monday for the ladies.
Tuesday for the men.
Weds - girls
Thursday - boys

Have a wonderful weekend.
