A Cheap Anniversary This Year - Real Mum story on MoM

20 Comments

I just want to say thanks to the MoMs team yet again because the current We-Vibe competition has given me the perfect idea for an anniversary present for my husband (get your minds out of the gutter ladies!). We don’t have much money to spare this year and nowhere really to go (or babysitters to sit) even if we did. I do however, have a bathroom cabinet FULL of beauty products.

My husband is a big, burly man, but just like any human being, he loves to be touched and pampered. So this year, instead of buying him something he doesn’t need, I’m going to make a big deal of how much I love him by giving him an at home pamper session. A full facial (including eye-brow wax – they’re driving me a little crazy atm), pedicure and maybe, if he’s really lucky, a massage. It’s hopefully something that he will appreciate (and let him know just how much I appreciate him) without it costing a cent (well – no more than what I’ve already spent).

And who knows, it may even lead to a VERY happy anniversary night and become a regular night in for us.

So, once again, thanks Mom team – keep up the good work!

It’s a fallacy that big, macho men don’t like that sort of thing. A lot of them would love it, but wouldn’t admit it. Good on you for thinking of it, and I hope you both had an anniversary to remember.

That’s a great idea. There is so much inspiration to be had on this site. He will probably appreciate being pampered at home and made a fuss of more than an expensive gift that he probably doesn’t need. Men love to be made a fuss of by their women.
