Something other than the tie/sock/cufflinks/airpods/watch etc
I've already gotten him a massage. 1 year it was a cool experience that I got him.
Last year I did coupons that he could redeem, amount according to his age.
I want a new gadget or something else that will really excite him. He deserves it!
TIA

My husband loves scotch so I got him a make your own scotch set- comes with a cute mini barrel and some stuff you mix together and let it sit for a month...
Other stuff I got were a personalized leather keychain for car keys, a few thousand piece Lego sets, personalized socks...

Get a blanket or throw made from his old favorite t-shirts. This was the best thing I ever got DH. It got piles of old t-shirts out of the house, and a really nice patchwork quilt like blanket that we still use and has has very personal memories attached to it.

This is where I got mine. It’s been a couple of years though… If you Google make your own scotch kit many places have them including Amazon.

A friend of mine and my sil invited their husbands friends for a surprise birthday party at their house. Friend was a weekday and got him a wine holder filled with few bottles of wine as a gift. and sil invited for Friday after meal party. My bil was out for a shalom zuchar and his teenage son 'begged' him to let's go home already. Not sure if n what gift. It was mega they said, their husbands were shocked!!!

Dh had an old poster/print that was special to him. Had it professional framed.

Can get painting or artwork of a rav he has a connection to. Or passuk that speaks to him.

Silver for Shabbos. What about kiddush cup exact Shiur for pesach sedder.

Can you give us an idea as to what your dh is like? What are his likes and interests? What’s he into? What’s his job?

Any ideas that are electronic gadget type things?
He has ear buds.
Nothing car related.
When I tried searching all I found was home security type things, not so interesting.
Any ideas?
