Need ideas for small presents for the wife...

Already got her the big present she wanted this year, but I need to brainstorm some smaller ones as well.

She likes running, if thats any help...
 
Hire a homeless man to chase her around while she's running. I don't think it would cost too much, and you two will have a funny story to tell the kids one days.
 
Donation in her name to a charity/cause that she cares strongly for. Many will even provide you with a gift card to give her.
 
Running stuff -

Quality running socks. They are very good at wicking away moisture and they help prevent blisters much better than cheapie "sports" socks.

Running tank tops. In fashionable colors. Form and function 🙂

Socks shouldn't be more than $10-$12 for two pairs. Tanks are probably around $20-$30 depending on brand.
 
So many attempts at comedy... so many failures....

For the real responses....

Actually pretty cool, but I think I would like that more than her.

No worries, she's already taken care of on that front.

pajamas? pearl necklace?

She has a pearl necklace and quite a few Pajamas, but she might be able to use another set. Thanks, i'll look into it.

We donate occasionally throughout the year, so I dunno if I would want to make that a present. Good idea though, I appreciate it.

Never really got into that, but interesting idea.

She has some good tops already, but I really like the socks idea as I don't think she has many running socks. Thanks!


 
You can never go wrong with comfy stuff like nice slippers, socks, pajamas, scarfs, any kind of that stuff is always great. I think my small gift is gonna be a gift card to a day spa.
