Hi,
Its my wife's 30th birthday in August and I've come across the idea that instead of buying a big present etc. or arranging a suprise party (she's made me promise I won't do this) is to
get her a present for every day of the month.
I've got a budget of about £30 per day, and it can be anything, presents or days out, or pampering etc.
Would you be happy with this?, and has anyone got any suggestions for any of the days?

That's about all I can think of at the moment. I really hope that the birthday month goes as planned and you both enjoy it immensely!!!
Thanks a lot for the reply, I hope she enjoys it!
You've been given some good suggestions (and a few dodgy ones). If you did do it, seeing as you're getting little things, I think it'd be quite important to mostly buy her personal items rather clichéd gifts... cant really say what, but things that you know she likes, or are a treat, or has been wanting etc... Or maybe you could do in between a big gift and everyday gifts.... i know people who send their partner their favourite flowers every single monday.. not saying you should do that! but maybe arrange 4 special weekends or smg...
In the sensible gift area it is best to choose something lightweight which will not require a visit to A&E if thrown.
I think this is the most fantastic idea and I wish I was your wife. You will most definitely score brownie points.
Why not take a month off work the pair of you and spend it with each other doing stuff together - time has more value than any material gift IMO
Seriously, it's a GREAT idea. Us women are suckers for that kind of thing. Cute.
Yes - good thinking
Whilst my ideas might not be perfect the OP might get another idea from them
e.g. Iron - golf iron - golf lessons or driving lessons etc etc.
It's a brilliant idea from the OP to get a gift every day - it just shows romance is not dead
That's a lovely idea!
But trying to think of 31 presents??? :eek: Now thats hard! :eek:
If my hubby bought me an iron for anything let alone my birthday, i would beat him to death with it!!!!!! :eek: :eek:
Honestly, it is a crazy idea. You will be making a rod for your own back.
She will be just as happy with one present that you have thought about. If she doesn't know about this 30 present idea she will be perfectly content.
How about a few bunches of flowers, say one or two a week.
A few dinner dates.
A couple of strawberry & champagne breakfasts (best stick to a weekend for those).
A night in a country hotel, with the following day spent wandering the local town (doesn't have to be an expensive place, a B&B can be just as nice).
Perfume
Some lovely smelly bath and massage oils
Honestly, trust me, don't even try it. You will get to day 10 and run out of ideas or have something else on and then you will then annoy her more than if you had bought one present. She will forget at this stage that you have already done 10 presents.
It is World Cup month, think about your commitments and plan the present accordingly.
I'm sure you missus will love whatever you give her & just tell her you love her as often as you can
eg some flip flops, beach bag, moistureiser, phrase book, meal in a restraunt themed with the holiday, wine from the destination, etc. etc.
