Perfume
Spa Day
Trip or Night getaway
Something Nice for the Seder Table or Shabbos Table
GC at Favorite Clothing Store or Luxury Brand
If she tends not to have help for cleaning, obviously someone to help her clean
Books
(I know my mother appreciates those.)


Don'ts
gym membership:Don't buy your wife a gym membership or any work out device. Ever. Like ever ever. Even if she asks or begs for it.
Drug store candy: If you are going to go and buy her some sort of dessert, don't bother going to your local CVS or Walmart for that if you don't intend to get yelled at.
Items that need fixing in the house: Don't buy your wife a washing machine, dish washer, vacuum cleaner bc its needed in the house. Would you have not gotten it if it wasn't her birthday around the corner?
Call your wife female spouse.

Do's
Jewelry : Diamonds ALWAYS work.
Call her Female Spouse. The capital letters make all the difference.
Pokemon Go She probably hasn't had a chance to download it

is that because your time is so valuable? Or because the maximum attention span of one of the members in this party is limited to 30 min?

Perfume?
That's a good one if she let's you know
accessories Belts, Sunglasses Perfume, gloves, scarf. all very personal and really require her taste or size.

but maybe it is a good idea a GC to one of those or get her something she can return of one of those items....

:) ...during the year, maybe, but for Chanukah something more luxurious. i.e. Milchig chocolate truffles. I was just here: http://www.chocolatecharm.ca/

Also, "The Chocolate Bar" in BP has amazing dairy, CY, caramel, chocolate, cashew/cheesecake truffles. GREAT selection and quality: https://www.thechocolatebarusa.com/

No, but with a mani/pedi or message voucher it works.

+1
A dairy Belgian chocolate gift selection like in this link, plus a spa certificate is a good combination:
Belgian dairy-chocolate link https://www.thechocolatebarusa.com/product/belgian-chocolate-collection-15-piece-gift-box-dairy/ and, you get to share the chocolate, too.

Or a diamond ring, a new house or a shopping trip. Lots to pair chocolate up with. Just not stand alone.
