Get him something he can put on a keychain. I suggest a decent single AA LED flashilight (Fenix makes several good AA and AAA batttery ones - check out Flashlight Reviews and LED Modifications), a USB stick with a cap he can't lose, or a decent keychain multitool, like a Leatherman Micra.
Yep, there's an ulterior motive. How many men use their keychain every day? Every time he uses it, he'll think of you. If it ever comes in handy (Trust me, it will) he'll think of how thoughtful you are.
And, just in case you ever break up...it will be such a useful tool, it will be hard for him to throw it away...and that's just funny...because he'll think of you...

Lame.
I will never post anything again. Thanks for the attack.
Edit. Nevermind, I read some of your other posts. I understand why you said that, now. No worries.
It's not spam, Me Dear, it is the sharing of an idea. It's ....sharing an idea on a foum....Gee..how quaint.
And how easily you were offended. Hate to be your husband. Must be like walking on eggshells.

Reason: I read some of her other posts. I understand why she said it would be lame for him, now.
Just throw out all his old torn boxers and buy him a new set of high quality brand name boxer-briefs, that way when you break up, everytime he has to access his junk he'll think of you. Or you could just wake him up once in a while with a super-great bj, and he'll wish every g/f afterwards did that. I guess if you are looking for a 'post-breakup' memory item, the relationship probably doesn't have much chance in the first place..
Are you joking about the spam part? If so, I dont' get it.
What does this post have to do with spam?
Not a joke, and I did not mean it to come off as harsh. But I just think that is is close to spam (or what I consider spam - just starting a thread which initially appeared to me as advertising for a specific product)
It is possible that the OP had pure intentions, but the way it read to me is that the OP was advertising a specific product.
It is also entirely possible that I am just being cranky, but I am also entitled to my opinion.

If it was spam...it would've been smarter to have a link to a product. Or more stupid as the case may be. I'd look at the rep, first of all. A spammer would have a rep of 10 and probably a post count of 1, 2...something like that.
Then I'd click on the name and see "other posts" - much like I did to yours...and read them. Like I read how your husband proposed to you...and you had to ask him "was that a proposal?". I'd see what the person was all about, before flinging an accusation.
But, that's neither here nor there. Accusation was flung. Big deal.
I love my leatherman. I thought it was a thoughtful gift from my wife. But, to each his own. You stated your husband wouldn't like it. What does he like? Maybe I can suggest that to my wife.
It was more of a topic to discuss gifts people gave. Perhaps I (or someone else) would've gotten an idea. I apologize for being too specific...but if you look at my other posts, I don't spam. This post was no different. (At least to me.)
It's not spam....hrmmm..tastes like chicken. HA HA HA!

I know it is not what other people would consider proper, but I did and still do think it was funny. We still laugh about it now. lol. It suited both of our personalities, because big productions embarrass me.

I usually get him gifts related to things a) that he enjoys doing, b) something that we can do together. In the past I have given him little accessories for skiing (gloves, wax, tools for home repair, etc), or for his bike. I also have given tickets for a sporting event as a special treat - and get the good seats.

Absolutely no need to apologize. I don't mean to offend. Mmmmm, chicken -- speaking of which, maybe I will make my chicken in thai peanut sauce tonight -- getting hungry!
I'd rather have a tactical flashlight that could be mounted to a pistol.
