What can I get dh, he's starting a new job/got promoted.
Was waiting since before corona. Bh the day arrived.
What can make/get him?
Were still on a tight budget bh (vs an impossible one).
My mind is blank.

I would set the table as nicely as I can, try to have hot dinner waiting that takes more effort than usual dinners, and possibly a dessert.
If applicable, young kids fed, bathed and in pjs, ready for bed before he comes home.
Hatzlacha to him!!

Is there anything he can use in his new job?

Like if it is a desk job. Maybe a cushy mousepad? Or a wrist rest for keyboard those are usually less than 20. Etc.

What does he do? Get something that “matches”.
E.g. dh is a lawyer, so I got him a personalized leather portfolio.
My bff’s dh is a dentist, she got him something personalized that’s dentist related (can’t remember what) and made a batch of tooth cookies with a tooth cookie cutter she found

He works long hours. Kids are already asleep when he comes home.....
I will make a fancier dinner. Or or really any dinner thats ready when he walks in is fancy.... lol. Kids started camp today so I'll be able to cook. Yay!

Last promotion I got him a desk organizer with a picture of the kids.

Recently took a really nice picture of the kids maybe I'll do something with that.

He went from an operational/management position to a more creative management position.

When my dh got his 1st good job in his field, after day 1 I set the table well and made a serious steak dinner with all the trimmings and dessert. I told him I appreciate his hard work and thanked him for supporting our family so I didn't have to.
