oooh, tip from my mechanics (both sons)….magnetic bar lights that stick to your car’s hood when it’s opened up to work on the engine etc. They come in all price ranges and sizes, and throw a ton of light!

To go with torches, a headlamp is so practical and my husband loves his. Being hands free is wonderful!

I have four large dogs and it’s pitch dark here by 4:30…I love the headlamp my husband gave me last year (thought it was seriously weird at the time) when I need both hands to keep the leashes straight and hubby and sons often steal it when they need extra light when working above/below vehicles!

Thanks to Mike for this ideas gifts. Good Vidéo. My ideas : a small bluetooh speaker, a large magnifying glass, a new box for her glasses, a hand made knitted pullover, a comfortable cushion, a box of pencils-eraser if he does crosswords, a vintage vynil, or vintage magazine...and of course Sweets

Some great and practical ideas there Mike. 😃 I used to always buy my uncle a box of Maltesers. He appreciated those more than anything. On the subject of key rings, many years ago, my friend's mum brought me back from holiday a novelty keyring with a small fold-up pair of scissors attached. I still carry it around to this day and they have come in useful on many occasions. They are actually a good little pair of scissors. 🤗🎄🦌

This year, the men in my family are getting these in their stockings: pajama pants, little bottles of super hot gourmet hot sauce, back scratchers, manly scented bar soaps, little manual hand held games, and a bunch of homemade goodies including caramel corn, cookies and chocolates!❤

Everyone gets chocolate in their stocking at our house plus their favorite candy. My husband searched for one of the best wool socks and bought a pair on special Christmas sale for one of our sons and our son was so HAPPY he put them on right away. Said they were the most comfortable socks he's ever owned lol. I love getting good socks to be honest and was a little disappointed when I didn't get any...oh well. I have to ask if you got a new puppy as there are 3 white little ones playing in the snow while Mike is throwing snowballs playing with them? I do chuckle at Mike shaking his derriere with the pup as its running past him, such fun! I didn't have time to watch all of them prior to Christmas so I'm catching up and enjoying a cup of tea on my slow day. Thanks for these suggestions ❤

My oldest brother loves marzipan, cookies, all kind of candy and pistachios. His wife loves bonbons and chocolate. My youngest brother loves beer’s, olives, nuts and whiskey. His wife loves chocolate peanuts and normal chocolates. My friend loves everything chocolate. So that is what I get for them, except for the whiskey because he only likes the very expensive ones and they are above my price range.

Thanks, Mike! I always give my husband chocolate. Many of the suggestions you listed are ones that I have gifted my husband and sons in the past (chocolate is always given). I'd add a nice pair of slippers - shearling lined, if you can afford them. My husband loves those (almost) as much as chocolate. ❤🐾❤️🐾

My husband really likes nuts. Cashews are his favorite. My best friend’s husband likes pajamas and socks! This is off subject but a couple days ago I got three small gifts. One from my neighbor, one from my best friend in Kentucky through the mail and one from a friend at church. Not expecting anything I realized the small things make me really happy. My neighbor made me a clothespin ornament painted to look like me even with long hair and she painted a tiny weenie dog like mine on the shirt! My friend in KY sent me a Bundt cake tiny ornament because I’m always baking Bundt cakes. My friend at church’s daughter had been to Disney and brought back several Mickey Mouse gingerbread cookies and he brought me one! Such little simple things were the best gifts I could have imagined. I am certainly not regifting these. 😂Then another friend gave me the next day a northern lights calendar from the dollar tree. That is significant because both of us had friends and family who got to go see them this year. I am not good at picking gifts. I try but don’t seem to have great ideas so I stick to pajamas, gift cards and requested things.

Now budget airlines are very strict on carry on baggage, I would recommend as a present for people who travel, a rucksack that is the maximum size permitted to go under the seat. Many brands such as Cabin Zero make good quality, durable ones that you can use as a normal rucksack while you're away.
