You can put some imagination into the actual Gift card tho.

When I stayed with someone in the states I got them a gift card for a Day Spa near by, as a thank you. Instead of the usual store type one.

Yeah for sure. But buying your missus actual clothes is never good. Just get the gift card.
And the other way round, chicks shouldn't buy the actual tools. Just do the voucher.

 

[Shell]

Suits me. I wouldnt know what the hell I'd be looking at.

Also. **** Bunnings.

 

[Spazz Cat]

These days I just go to centre management at the DFO and buy a gift card for the whole place. Easy. Always goes well.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Reminds me. I have a voucher to do rally car driving out at Gisborne. Got it just after the very first lockdown started.
Better get on to that.

 

[Kram]

May as well not bother at all with gifts and just buy your own stuff.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Bought my missus a tattoo voucher too during the lockdowns. She better get on to that.

 

[Spazz Cat]

That was a top gift BTW. I was proud of that.

For sure! Way of the future.
Remember when you were a kid and you'd see your Aunty or whoever else you didn't give a f**k about at Xmas etc
What's the first thing you'd do? Open that card and pray a note was falling out of it.
Then pretend to read the card.
But if she bought a present you knew you were f**ked. Probably be a book or some shit.

True in that situation its good but if a wife gives her husband a $200 voucher at Bunnings whilst he gives her a $200 at a clothes shop every year i dont get the point, why bother.

It's the lack of thought that counts.

Cause that's 200$ you can spend totally on yourself and you don't feel guilty.
And you can't really spend it on the kids. So it's no like you go Awww better buy them something with some of it.

 

[Spazz Cat]

I'd ban Mothers day and Fathers day stalls too.
You gotta go to the servo before school to get get cash out to give to them to buy you something.
Then they spend most of it at the canteen, then buy you some piece of crap with what's left that you can't even throw out for a year cause is says Mum/Dad on it etc.

 

[Shell]

I can actually remember what i bought my mum at those stalls

My yia yia didn't even bother with cards. She just gave several hundred to mum and dad and they divvy'd it up afterwards kozi mate

 

[Shell]

She was the legit best screw Aussie grandmas. Would always get some cash after a visit not just xmas

Federer?

Hasnt he retired already. And if not, get on with it pls.

No, he hasn't retired. And it will be a huge loss to the sport when he does.

 

[Shell]

Not from where im sitting.

Too old piss off.
/him not you

F**k Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!! That is a seriously top gift.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Can't go wrong with a gift card. Couples should never buy each other actual things.
Gift cards are better.

Seems like a good bloke. Good role model for kids too. Teaching them to say no to shooting up drugs.
