What about one of these:

Search results Boots clicky

Then you could use the 'hat box' and fill it with goodies for somebody elses Christmas pressie

Or a WHSmiths voucher so you could get a couple of books from Richard and Judys book club to relax with on those rainy-can't-garden days:

Home - Richard and Judy Book Club

Or may be a Thorntons chocolates gift box for some luxury:

Or, even better, one item from ALL of them

[Florence Fennel]

A nice trip to the theatre?

I've seen that remaindered somewhere... possibly The Works, or the Book People? It was only about £4 anyway

Mine asks me, and when I tell him what I'd like, he decides that's not a good present and buys something that he'd like instead This year he said I should go to a really expensive restaurant because I'm worth it: meaning he really wanted an excuse to go to a really expensive restaurant (I don't particularly enjoy eating out, as the food is invariably worse than I can do at home. I don't mean I'm Nigella, just that most places can't cook decent veggie food)

A nice trip to the theatre?

Seconded!!!!!!!

[Nicos]

How about breakfast in bed with a couple of pressies to unwrap ,then both of you taking the day off work and going off somewhere different for the day. Pub lunch and a takeaway and film in for the evening

[Headfry]

Are there any courses you have always wanted to take?
Tender part two - Nigel Slater - the book is out now!
any box sets of DVD's you fancy?
What about IOU's You get him to write out 'cheques'
ie He owes you 5 mornings worth of tea in bed
He owes you 5 times of putting the shopping away
He owes you 3 afternoon teas complete with little cake'ies
He owes you 3 hours weeding......
He owes you a day of being your slave!
Your mind can run riot here- I love this kind of gift as often or not it's the little things that really count and you can have fun thinking of IOU's

go geocaching

We've recently taken up geocaching, brilliant isn't it!

or the grow your own drugs books

Someone bought me this for my birthday, it's actually quite good, normally these books from tv serieseseses are a load of rubbish, but this is useful.

[Bren In Pots]

We don't do prezzies instead we visit one of those local places you take for granted that's just on your doorstep.

[vicky]

We've wanted to start this, but weekends we have Little One, and she doesn't do walking.

We have found quite a few where you barely need to get out the car!

If my b'day was this time of year I'd ask for bulbs - expensive ones you wouldn't buy for yourself!

[Pumpkin Becki]

Bins, what about a fig tree...or an apple tree...or a plum tree (can you spot the theme?). Most of them can be grown in pots if you don't want to plant it in the ground.
