What will you be giving the Wife or Partner for Christmas?

[Keeps]

I've got the Mrs. one of these but am telling her it's a robot vacuum cleaner....

 

[expat_4_life]

I gift the wife a seasonal vacation at this time of the year, departing next week.

This way I don't have to expect anything from her as I get to go along

"What will you be giving the Wife or Partner for Christmas?"

 

not a penny! as far as i'm concerned, x-mas is a day like any other.

[alien365]

Nothing major, just some mobile phone cases, macademia, a lamp, a cat statue, and some secateurs. It's more about having something under the tree to open than the value.

You do know that you may have to pay double time if you want someone to come around and service the Mrs. on Christmas Day?

How do you know she is not faking it?

I give modest cash gifts to her family members, and take her and the grandchildren to KFC.

[brianthainess]

Zilch, Nana, Nothing she is Buddhist, I already brought her a big gift earlier this year, a new second hand car, good for 10 yrs IMO.

That won't be necessary.

We used to exchange gifts years ago, but now it's just gifts for the kids and grandkids, nothing either of us need or want

[Ralf001]

2/3rds of <deleted> all.

Just opened and gave her a shop 2 month ago, which already is showing great potential. I will give her a letter that shows it´s all turned into a franchise. Obviously, I will have to hand her the capital to market and build it up too.

[ColeBOzbourne]

A new mop and bucket, she's nearly worn out the old one. If I'm feeling generous, maybe a pair of work gloves to wear while she's mowing the lawn.

Believe it or not, it's a special treat for them. Good post of yours, though.

[brewsterbudgen]

Gold, always gold.

[Galong]

I just asked her if she wanted me to buy her something nice or just give her some money so she could buy whatever she wanted. She opted for money. She also said she bought and boxed something for me already. I don't like shopping... she likes shopping.  This is perfect. 

BTW, every Thai I know celebrates Christmas. It has nothing to do with religion for them and everything to do with gifts for and from loved ones. 

[BritManToo]

Nothing, she's Buddhist and doesn't celebrate Xmas.

I think everybody would, if asked, opt for money. I personally like figuring out something I think my girl might like and then buying it for her. The complaints when it isn't what she wanted can be a bit difficult to bear though 😁

Interesting. In all my years here I have never met a Thai who celebrates Christmas who isn't either a Christian, or married to a westerner.

 

New Years Day is generally the day Thais reserve for friends and family gift giving.

[Olav Seglem]

Gave her thb 10.000 for christmas and birthday dec 30 th.

She was not happy.

Even if 40% thai families have to manage eith that amount ir less monthly.

I have never in my life been given a months salary as a gift... :-)

Christmas is about 'giving' gifts, not receiving them.  Don't be such a Scrooge!

[Olmate]

Same old thing!
