    Glad I stumbled onto that gift idea awhile ago. Sure makes for an easy gift on holidays and occasions. Especially for last minute shoppers like myself. You don't have to think about what she may or may not like. Or spend time chasing your tail around in a mall. Run in, grab whatever charm you think she might like and out the door in minutes. She's happy, you're relieved. Saves money on wrapping paper too because they are small :rock:

    Started this two years ago.. dynamite idea. http://www.davidcharlesltd.com/coll...pfinejewelry.com/png_images_v3/chamilia01.png

    Each year I add on a "bead", or whatever it is. It's a pretty nice one too, from our local jewelry store. The wife loves it, and it's inexpensive... only after this year, I believe the novelty will wear off..

    I dont' care if the novelty wears off. As long as those little things keep fitting on the bracelet, that's what she's getting :lol:

    I still don't know what the wife is getting. I'm thinking a pedicure/massage certificate and taking her out to eat.

    You youngsters. When u get my age you send her a card and thats it and that's over the internet, they cost too much in the stores. Maybe a dinner out which I will enjoy too.

    If I ever bought my wife a charm bracelet she would not be happy.. and I don't know why. I think there a nice easy gift to add to.

    But she's made that decision perfectly clear to me over the years.:(

    Dude, I thought that was for high school. Seriously, if she is getting charms every holiday or valentines day, its going to get old. Put more effort into your wife and you will get more out of your relationship. Thoughtfulness goes a long ways in letting your wife know how important she is to you. If easy is what you are looking for then easy is what you will get. Easy to forget you when it is easy for her to walk away. And men wonder why their wives or girlfriends do some of the things they do. It shouldn't come as a shock when it was so easy.

    That being said, don't do something ridiculous like go out and buy her 2 dozen roses. Be a little more original than that. She will appreciate it and putting a smile on her face like that is something that isn't easily forgotten by her. Chances are, it will be an absolute shock to her she didn't get that lame charm again. You get what you give so when you don't get much, don't complain about it.

    Good luck with the charm thing. I am sure by now she expects nothing less.

    I sent her flowers at work the first 3 years we were married she said they were pretty but made her sneeze then died so I should save my money. It was at that point we decided no gifts exchanges ever for birthdays or any holidays. It's worked for us for 17 years now. :D
