I had such trouble for so long getting my hubby to understand the quality-right-on-the-money idea over the quantity-sort-of-close idea (not just for the holidays but for birthdays and anniversaries, too) that early in our marriage, I offered to give him a list. He flat out told me that if I did that he'd go out of his way
not to buy a single thing on the list.... he doesn't believe in it (neither do I, but I thought it'd make it easier on him.... I was really relieved that he turned me down, lol) He really does believe in the idea of putting thought into getting a gift and having it be a total surprise. He's getting much, much better.... I guess for him it's a trial and error sort of thing.
