Here is my big secret.... Once or twice a month I'll take my wife out shopping. "Hey honey, let's go to the mall". Then I follow her around like a little puppy dog watching everything she picks up. The following day I'll swing back out to the mall and buy her a few things she liked, and I'll stash them away. By Christmas time I'll have 15-20 gifts from her and I don't need to do any shopping.
Works like a charm every year.

Yeah I'm not gonna do that, looking like a super hero for one day isn't worth the pain of going to the mall with my wife every few weeks throughout the year.
We didn't do Christmas gifts last year, we took a 2.5 week trip to Thailand through the holidays as a gift to each other. This year we are going to Scotland to be with our family for the holidays for the first time in 7 years, that's our gifts and saves me from going anywhere near a damn mall at this time of year.
