What are good 7th Anniversary gifts to give to your husband? Mine is coming up in 3 days, and I have been so busy with the end of the school year, that this has sneaked up on me.

What kinds of hobbies is he into? Would he enjoy getting a gift that would go with one of his hobbies?

Does he like the movie The Seven Year Itch with Marilyn Monroe? Just kidding I'm with the PP, what type of hobbies does he have? Does he life golf? If so then get him something golf related.

Congrats!

7th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Traditional Anniversary Gift: Copper
Modern Anniversary Gift: Wool/Brass

Hmmm...7 pennies? One for each year of marriage. A wool sweater? Brass knuckles?

I have no idea. What kinds of things do you all usually buy each other for anniversaries?

7th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Traditional Anniversary Gift: Copper

I'm thinking a surprise involving three strategically-placed pennies.

Dirty dirty--but not within marriage, that is .

Im drawing a blank..I cant ever figure out what to give mine..for anything ..not just anniversarries..Hes one of those that he doesnt want anything..and and rarely over the past 20+ years has he kept anything I have given him for Christmas..birthdays ..or our anniversay...

Im better at giving men advice on what to give his wife.. becasue I do know what I like and maybe some other women would to.

As a matter of fact one year..I got a suggestion from Cons..it was a good one..to go buy him something..and then take it back..for him..and give him the the reciepts for the purchase and the return..

Or cut out the second trip to the store and get him a gift card. The Visa GC's they sell in the store are the same as cash, but without saying "I couldn't be bothered to go to the store so here's some money."

Last year we were supposed not to buy gifts because we were taking a weekend trip. In the event, he got me a Barnes & Noble GC, which I love, because I have their Nook (e-reader) and I put it on my account and spent it all immediately, ha. What he did get me that was awesome was the first season of Dallas on DVD. That was a great gift because I had been talking recently about how we've never gone to visit Southfork and how much I enjoyed the series when I was a teen. I LOL'd when I opened it but I was thrilled too, because it meant he was listening to me!!

Is there anything he talks about like that? A movie that he enjoyed, or a series on tv, or a favorite band or something?

We have never done conventional "year #1 is paper" kind of gifts. There's nothing wrong with it, just my h wasn't interested in that. I can't remember if you have kids - could you surprise him with an evening in a nice hotel and room service?

The ONLY problem with that is???I dont HAVE any money.. ..by that I mean hes the breadwinner..and neither of us have any "real' restrictions on spending money on our selves ..ya know to an extent..I guess I could 'splurge" and give him like all the money out of the checking account and say "here "..Im giving you EVERYTHING "I' have...you are worth it!

So the whole point is it at LEAST has to be a pain in the rear end...like the 'thought" ..the effort to GO to the store to pick out the unwanted gift..THEN the real "gift" is me taking the trouble ot return it for him..I thought of an extra special touch..I could with the reciepts of the purchase and return also give him some wadded and ripped up wraping paper with it so I could show him that I also wrapped it and opened it for him too.

Or - just stick a bow on your head and tell him you got him the gift every man would want - the world's greatest wife.

For our first anniversary we didn't buy eachother gifts but just went on a weekend trip just the two of us.

I'm not sure if that will always be possible but I definatly prefer that over buying eachother gifts.

Besides what am I going to do with the traditional wedding gift of paper? Give her a paper airplane?

I really like the idea of the gift being time together. It doesn't have to be an entire weekend....maybe a day trip? Somewhere you both would love to explore?
