Gifts!

In "high heeled shoes...", FONDL mentioned gifts for his ATF. Thought it might be an interesting topic. What have you guys given your ATF?
I'll start. Other than the normal few pieces of jewelry and many lunches/dinners, I gave her:
1) A non- tattoo. (She wanted an anklet tattoo, so instead, I had jewelry make to be used in place of the tattoo.}
2) A full blown trip to a spa. (This was right after a bad experience in her life. That she loved!)
3) Visits to a shooting range, which let to #4.
4) A pistol.
5) Not really a gift, but helped her buy a vehicle. (No money on my part, just advice.)
So, any one else? Any really strange or unusual gifts?

-> CDs - probably about 20 (mostly purchased from iTunes)
-> a REALLY nice digital camera, plus spare battery & chrgr, several mem cards (birthday present)
-> stripper wear - panties (as she called them), an outfit
-> helped her with first month rent oh her house
-> car charger for her phone
-> a few gifts of money to help her out at trying times (she may be heading for the big "D" - no, not Dallas)
You might also want to talk about what she gives you - my ATF is now a licensed massage therapist with her own business, and whenever I visit her she gives me free massages. She's really good at it. Last year she brought her table to the condo I was renting and gave me a massage on the balconey overlooking the beach. Wow.
Perfume: Last Christmas and the year before I gave out about sample bottles of perfume. I have given full size bottles to some favorites on their birthdays. My daughter sells the stuff part time. So I get it free.
Music CD's: I have probably given out a couple of hundred over the years. I burn them myself. Costs me about 50 cents a pop for blank CD-R and jewel cases.
DVD's: I have burned 3 copies of Disney's "Song of the South" for favorites with kids. These are difficult to come by. I burned one porno for a favorite.
My first ATF: Gave her a stick pin of a cat and also gave her a 6 foot long stuffed animal (Lizard).
Last ATF: Gave her an art print of butterfly's. Hauled my old computer work station 240 miles to give to her. And lastly gave her $1,000 when she broke up with her husband and he kicked her out of the the house. The house was in his parents name.
Candy: They don't call me the candy man for nothing.
A gift certificate to Victoria's Secret. Not sure what all she bought with it. This was a Christmas present.
Several CD's.
From her...
Well, that was a difficult think since I could not have "gifts" popping up, so they were things I might purchase for myself.
A nice key chain. Never used it, however, but still have it.
A thing that went in my car to heat and massage my back. Used it a lot. She knew I had a bad back. It was and is wonderful. Still use it.
Can't really think of anything else, but as I said, that was my choice. Just didn't need something to explain.
to the op, kudos getting your girl a pistol, that is a very good gift for a female.
The pistol was a gift in which SHE expressed interest. And only after I had taken her to the range a few times, as I stated.
i was not in the least being sarcastic. i actually meant i do think it's wise for a woman to own her own firearm... i can't get tone of voice on this computer:)...my bad.
-> balloon bouquet (she'd mentioned that she'd never received balloons from anyone in her life - not like she was hinting - more like lamenting that her SO isn't very thoughtful - of course I had to show her who IS thoughtful - okay, maybe I was manipulated a little on that one)
-> a Teddy Gram and huge cookie for Valentine's Day
Although it DOES seem a little pathetic and PL-ish to buy dancers gifts, I don't feel at all taken or used by doing so. It makes ME feel good to make her happy. Also, I believe there is a relationship brewing here - it certainly feels like it, anyhow.
Just for yucks I printed out a nice proclamation type thing, using our nicknames for each other, about the VIP room we always adjourn to. She loved it. i printed another copy and put it in a nice frame for her. It sits now on her bedroom dresser.
I didn't take what you said anyway other then what you expressed. I, too, thought it a good idea. I was just explaining the sequence and that it wasn't my idea.
