Don't buy your mrs a Dyson as a present on your anniversary day.

No, have you seen the price of them.
Let her buy her own.
hahahaaaaa. you silly silly man you. rule number 1 is never buy household items as gifts for women especially on your anniversary and if you have the misfortune of doing so at the wrong time of month then you deserve all you get :-)
that's like giving someone a bar of soap as a present.

When did you decide clothes/jewelry/shoes/holiday/perfume/Remus end can or even chocs and flowers came second to a Dyson? Schoolboy error :D

Household appliances never work as gifts. Even though, obviously, she should be pleased that you remembered your anniversary at all!

A mate of mine bought his missus a ironing board for a anniversary present. He genuinely thought this would be the ideal present as the old she used looked worn and tired...what a donut...he learnt his lesson after that.

It would be the perfect present if it came with a guarantee that she is never expected to use it because part 2 of the gift is that you promise to always do the vacuuming.
Mr LPH bought me Tekken 2 for the Playstation for Valentines day one year. Romantic eh?

Haha i once gave the ex missus a big copper pan (cos we needed one) for her anniversary and after i got her to stop hitting me over the head with it and swearing at me i got her to cut the tape off which was holding the lid on and inside was her proper present. An enchantica dragon which i was surpised hadn't broke due to the ferosity of my bashing :D

I make my wife wait for ages when she needs a new appliance, saying not to buy it because we need to do the research and get the right appliance (brand, spin speed, wattage, length of guarantee, whatever..).
She's been moaning that she needs it for so long, that when I do eventually arrive home with it she's happy as a camper and I'm flavour of the month. :lol:
