Are you having trouble thinking of something to buy for your other half?

Christmas is a stressful time of year for everybody, whether you're a husband trying to think of something to buy your wife, or a mother who doesn't know what her grown-up son likes any more. What do you get for the person who has everything?

The first thing you need to do is write down a list of all the basic things you know about them. Let's imagine for a second that you are a wife living in Germany.

While your husband is a big supporter of the German international team, and has respect for all the locals teams, he's the biggest supporter of Premier League football club West Ham United. You could maybe buy him tickets to watch a game in the UK, but that would require you to buy plane tickets from Berlin to London. If you can't afford that you might need to think outside the box.

Perhaps you could buy him some West Ham merchandise instead, so he can show his allegiance to the team through his possessions? Just something that would only be seen by his close friends though. After all, football is quite a territorial sport, so perhaps it wouldn't be wise to purchase an official West Ham shirt, which he would then wear down the streets of Munich.

What you could do is buy something only his close friends will see though. For example, does he play on websites like partypoker de? If so, how good is he, and would he be interested in West Ham branded poker merchandise?

There's actually quite a few poker items available in the West Ham United official store. For example, you could buy him the 100 Premium Poker Chip set, 59.99 in pounds sterling. Or maybe you could go for the 100 ABS Poker Chip Set for half that price?

The chips are branded with the West Ham United logo, but they are so subtle, other players wouldn't be threatened by them if they swore allegiance to another team. It's important for every poker enthusiast to have the right equipment after all, and what better present than one which combines his two passions so nicely?

There are plenty of other examples of merchandise for you to browse though. Just take a look.
