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

That along with a card with some meaningful writing from the heart, can go a very long way.

Your edit is 100% accurate, a meaningful card written from the heart is usually better than anything money can buy. A mani/pedi GC, is just for the topping.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Agree, and since the gift is just the topping as you call it it is probably best if you ask her what she needs and/or have her keep a gift registry/list when you buy what she needs and wants + add that meaningful letter you basically got it all covered

... :D ha.. haa...  ::) we are way cheaper and taste better than Enjoy Life, so that's not possible.  ;) Even our 50lb boxes cost less.

However, we were in Toronto before Chanuka and brought lots of these Chocolate Charm dairy Cholov Yisroel truffles for teacher gifts -- Highly recommend. They ship (I think to USA, not sure) Link: http://www.chocolatecharm.ca/

Record a funny greeting video. You can do different choices, wrest funny hats or costumes. Use props etc. Than have them play it by the vort.
