When I got old enough (about age 11), my dad would take me Christmas and birthday gift shopping with him to pick out a gift for her. When I left home to attend college, my younger sisters were recruited for this job.
How many of the guys on TOTV recruit family members to help them shop for the women in their lives? Or do you know your significant other well enough to get them "just what they want?"

One time my husband took our ten-year-old Christmas shopping for me. He ran across a piece of jewelry that cost a good chunk of change and goaded my husband into buying it. It came in a plastic silver Christmas tree ornament that they brought home and hung on our 14-foot tree that was decked to the gills with ornaments. I never even noticed it, and they smirked back and forth for two weeks.
I still wear that ring every single day.
