C'mon Sowal, I need ideas

scavenger hunt with clues?

Suggestions? Any similar stories with happy endings?

How many stories involving chainsaws have happy endings?
You must not have much to do at work today--first Miss USA, now this. :roll:

Not specifically chainsaw stories with happy endings, stories SIMILAR.

scavenger hunt with clues?

Yeah, I thought about that, too.

Give him the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Tell him his gift is the star. He'll figure it out. Don't watch the movie though...blech!

My friend (tool lover that he is) suggests buying a toy chainsaw. He said Walmart has these. When he opens it, tell him his real one is in the garage, or wherever you are hiding it. Save the toy for your nephewPeas, or for any future luckybabies. Merry Christmas.

I was going to suggest that. That was the scariest movie I think I ever watched besides The Ring.

He sounds like a lucky guy! Hope he's surprised. K got all excited when I mentioned someone buying tools for Christmas. I think he thought the scenerio was about his Christmas gift at first. Poor guy he's getting clothes, boots and boring stuff.

That's always my solution to avoid the obvious package under the tree.

I hear ya sista. I'm not a fan of scary movies. The Ring was creepy!

One year I bought Mr. BR a nice car as a Christmas present. He had bought a car that summer and wasn't thrilled with it. I bought a replica of the new car at the dealer, put the keys inside the toy car, and wrapped it up. He flipped out --shocked that I did that, yet happy. Then we drove to the dealer to pick it up. It was one of the ballsiest (is that a word? LOL) things I've ever done.

get him one of the ugliest(or prettiest) flannel shirts you can find, and when he opens it, explain that he is only allowed to wear it when he's using the rest of his present. or when you play lumberjack/diner waitress

love the shirt idea

You are a brave wife! Bdarg will be soooo jealous tht your husband is getting a chainsaw. I'm too much of a chicken. But I am protecting the flora and fauna in the yard as much as I am worrying about his safety!

brave? more like a sucker

our flora is falling down around us, so it's more necessity than anything. geez, you should hear him talk about tools. i hope it's a surprise!

Ok here's the deal and you have to do this. He'll never forget it....

Go buy some coveralls (yes Pea I'm sure I freakin misspelled it and most of the other words in this post but I don't care) and a hockey mask. Ya know buy the same get up the TX Chainsaw Massacre dude wears. At about 4 in the morning sneak out of the bedroom, put on the get up (the mask is a must!) sneak back into the bedroom, crank up the chainsaw, give it a few good revs and see if he looks suprised ......... for maximum effect put more oil in the gas than recommended (makes for more smoke ;-) )

I think finding the coveralls would be the challenge with this plan

DO IT, DO IT. :clap_1: Listen to the MAN, a surprise and a turn on at the same time. Go figure!
