I think you may need a last minute shopping trip. The list was made for a reason. get her those things or you are dead for sure.

Your mistake was to get her something practical and useful instead of something 'pretty' that she would wear for two weeks before it finds it's resting place at the back of the wardrobe with the rest of the 'pretty' stuff.
^ does that make sense? I'm tired.

if my woman ever handed me an itemized list of things she wanted, i'd dump her retarded ass before i could even decipher the stock weight, porosity, and finish of the paper stock on my fingertips.

- unlike most, i'd rather retain some level of dignity in a relationship, rather than fill it with artificial bullshit...CanHasQBN

- Wishes he was single? :DETM
- i would ignore everything on the listscarabin
- agree, the list thing is not on.Shaney
- no ETM, i don't wish i was single. i just prefer women who don't make lists. it's petty and insulting.CanHasQBN
- yup agreed. specially your wife... you really need a list?horton
- As with most things in most relationships, this is a grey area.CyBrain
- true. there are relationships out there that are so boring and un-spontaneous, that the woman feels inclined to createCanHasQBN
- a list for her man -as a guide... because he's not creative enough to conjure up something interesting to give her.CanHasQBN
- her.CanHasQBN
- i love you CanHasQBNtimeless
- I agree that lists are boring, but most people do them and even more people ask other people "what do you want?"Jaline
- In these cases, you can either brush the person off and leave them scrambling (because most people don't know whatJaline
- to get), or you could help them out. I don't care which one, personally, but I don't tend to follow lists.Jaline

get her one item from the list, a spa gift card, make her dinner, and give her flowers. this should make the kindle seem like 'something extra'.

I'd be dead for buying her a 3G kindle.

A list is a God-send. Much better than, "Oh don't worry. Get me anything. I trust your judgement". Then you go out and buy a 3G Kindle and get crucified.

If she loves, really loves, reading, and she isn't a total bitch, then I actually think you could be golden with the Kindle, mate.
One thing better than getting the stuff on the list that she wants, is using your brain and thinking about what she might reaallly like, but would never ask for, perhaps at risk of sounding greedy for such a high-ticket item. If you can preload it with some of her favourite books, then you'd really be the hero. Sounds terribly corny, but if she's decent person who loves you and you've given the gift from your heart with her in mind then it'll be just fine. Something that says you genuinely care about her and not just something from a list that says you'll do what she asks is always a winner no matter what the cost.

She'll love the Kindle, my missus steals mine all the time.
BTW, I just got a new one, having damaged the display on the first one. Amazon replaces them without too many questions, in case you ever cry after damaging yours.

don't worry, it's never enough.

Here's an idea...

She gave you a list and you ignored it? How very thoughtful for you. She's clearly a lucky lady!
