So, yeah, I messed up. I need to buy a present for my wife for my 3rd wedding anniversary. I need it for tomorrow (worst case, ordered to arrive at my office tomorrow so she can receive it in the evening). My original plan was somewhat messed up when she bought it for herself.

Criteria:
Leather (tradition innit?)
Under £100
Not a purse (she bought herself one last week, this is what scuppered my original plan)
Ideally available from a good sized High Street, or next day delivery if not.

Your ideas please

Card, flowers (from a florist) and something else.

If you're able, why not deliver them yourself and take her out for a quick (surprise) lunch - then she won't care about any other present.

Indeed, it is the "something else" that is causing a challenge. The flowers and card are, thankfully, already sorted.

Buy her the same purse she has just got and tell her you got it weeks ago - just shows how well you know her after such a short time. Then send it back and let her pick something she wants

You need to nip these expectations in the bud, bud.

Nothing.

Doesn't sit right with me that on a wedding anniversary you have to buy something to.

1. prove you still love the person.
2. prove you haven't forgotten the day.

Leather Pandora bracelet with a flower bead on it (may also buy some real flowers). Comes in nicer colours and is a little more feminine than the Trollbeads version and won't need a clasp as this is integral. Buy the longer one that goes around twice.

£99 voucher for shoes innit. Knowing lady shoes that'll get her at least a quarter of a shoe made of less than the space between molecules in malaysian slave labour camp.

Useless, you're all useless.

So, I've managed to get a gold and leather bracelet/bangle/things (much nicer than that makes it sound) and a bottle of very nice Champagne that happens to be in a leather box. A touch above budget but we're all sorted.

And, breathe.
