I usually plan what I want to buy and look around ahead of time before buying gifts. Hubby can be tricky, sometimes, so what I do is I choose what I think he may want, put it in the online shopping cart and tell him to check it out before I purchase it. I learned that this is the best way to buy him gifts that he will like/use/wear. I had several 'expensive' disappointments, where he didn't really care about the gifts I gave, because they're not up to his liking.
Another person that's hard to buy gift for is myself. It's easier for me to buy gifts for my husband than buying something (indulging) for myself. I contemplate way too much.
