    My wife is a huge Star Wars fan.

    I got her a cosplay quality lightsabre. Lights up, makes noises when you swing it, the whole bit.

    I also got her one of those electrified tennis rackets for killing flies.

    She is so perplexed when I told her the theme of her gifts this year is weaponry.

    I am giving my cat a water fountain. She loves water straight from the tap and shower floor water.

    Gave myself 48 hours off from caregiving, and am now sitting quietly alone with Chinese food and a great book. It’s easy to forget how important this is.

    My middle son’s girlfriend is my Secret Santa recipient. She is really into mechanical keyboards. So she’s getting a new backplate, 100 new switches, and keys that are painted as one of her favorite anime characters.

    My daughter wants to learn to DM, so she’s getting a D&D adventure book. Not related to DMing but also tickets to Hamilton this summer.

    My wife wanted a trailer hitch for her Pallisade, so that is what she’s getting.

    I’m pleased with all of them.

    Myself, unfortunately. It’s been a really bad year for me.

    It’ll be nice to see everyone else exchange gifts though. I enjoy that.

    A bottle of Lagavulin 16 year old single malt.

    It won’t be a surprise but I know the recipient will be super happy with the gift.

    Nothing. I come from a large family and none of my older siblings can drive so I’m too busy to shop. Unless transportation was my gift all along.

      Every year I spend hours trying to come up with a new and different gift for my wife. Your idea has inspired me. I am going to presume that you will be using a variation of the Pop Corn box version.
