We all know when it comes to buying the perfect gift for that special man in your life, it’s not going to be an easy task. Each time an occasion comes around such as birthdays, Christmas or Valentine’s Day, we try to plant unsuspected seeds. We fish for some sort of hint of what he really wants and fail every time, consistently answered with a shrug of the shoulders.
