Although buying for a woman has always been said to be the most difficult, many women would agree that it is in fact the opposite. Buying for a man can prove to be quite a challenge if you think he already has every gadget or tool out there. And when it comes to buying for a big event such as an anniversary, you want to make sure that you get the right gift to show you are a loving and devoted wife.
So what is the perfect gift to get your husband for a special day that only you two share together? Traditionally speaking, most try to stick to a something that revolves around the material or symbol associated with how many years a couple has been married. Since we have modern technology on our side, materials such as paper, aluminum, or steel, create an endless array of options for us.

If you are celebrating your first anniversary together and the material is paper, get him an autographed picture of his favorite celebrity or sports figure. Buy him tickets to an event such as a concert or sports game. If your symbol is aluminum or steel, get him that putter or tennis racquet he has been eyeing for the last couple of months, or the latest Ipod or PDA. Great deals are only a click away on many websites.
If your husband has been itching for you to go rock climbing or scuba diving with him, do it! He will love it that his wife is willing to participate in one of his extra-curricular activities or hobbies that he is interested in. Just make sure you do it with a smile on your face. Nothing is worse than ruining your day together by complaining about how much you hate what you are doing, even though you arranged the outing!
If romance is what you need to recapture in your relationship, hire a babysitter and go somewhere special for the weekend. Rent a cottage in the mountains, or on a secluded lake. If adventure is your game, go somewhere that will allow the two of you to hike and explore the unknown. Make sure it is an activity or place that will recapture the essence of your relationship and reignite the sparks!
If you are tight on cash, making him a gift from the heart is always appropriate and a great way to show you care. Although, you may believe your man does not have a soft, fuzzy spot for love, he does. Your husband will be touched, even if he does not show it, by the handcrafted football or basketball team memorabilia you made for him. If you are not as crafty or short on time, there are plenty of websites out there that have last minute gifts and speedy shipping. Get him a gift basket filled with fine wines, or a basket that involves his favorite hobbies.
And if your still at a loss as to what the perfect present is for your man, as the old adage goes; "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach." Show him you really care by making his favorite meal with you as a side of dessert.
