Need gift ideas for my wife.
I want to buy a gift for my wife but really crappy at getting good gifts. I just want to get a little something to let her know I'm thinking of her. (I'm not in the doghouse or anything like that.)

Wanting to keep it under $100 so no jewelry. Any gifts you have given or received (ladies?) that went over well lately?

What music does she like? Get her some whatever it is programmed onto an ipod nano or shuffle.

Don't get an iron or vacuum although the new Dyson is really cool. I doubt she would find it heartwarming.

Tried this a few years back; wifey was quite pleased. Make sure the spa day is as stress-free as possible, too. I handled all the household chores that day and took the kids out for dinner/ice cream so she could have peace and quiet after the spa treatment.

yep spa thing assuming she would like that - Kind of hard to say without knowing your wife. Mine would probably prefer a new shovel over the spa thing but would definitely appreciate a card.

Yeah, no-brainer. Spa Day. Pedicure and message.
You do all chores at home, have dinner ready and bottle of wine open. Maybe a few candles. Get busy, my man.
