Not wanting to piss on your chips, mate
But in my experience you buy this sort of stuff only if you know they're spending about the same on you. Not for selfish reasons, you understand. If you end up shelling out a shitload on some bling and get a book token in return, it makes for a pretty uncomfortable Christmas day for your girlfriend...

Best stick with the ironing board cover and be done with it.

Seriously though, sounds like a great pressie. But if its sensible advice you need I think you may be in the wrong place....

This ^^

One christmas a few years ago now I brought the now mrs Covboy a bountiful load of rather nice presents and what did i get in return ?
A lynx box set that's what !!

I would say i wasn't bothered and in fairness i had only been at it with her for 6 months at the time but jesus H Christ i have to say
even i made the comment that she was tighter than a camels ass in a sandstorm that day.

Now as a joke and almost as a rememberance of that day i get a lynx box set from her every year on xmas day.
anyone that tells you materialistic things or the price doesnt come into it obviously hasn't had a shit gift yet....

make no mistakes xmas can be a fucking lethal time of year for arguments
my mates gift of a rolling pin for his mrs will stand testament to that
