Christmas time as part of a long-term couple calls for expert levels of gift-giving. You've been together so long, you've officially entered the "we share a Netflix password and a deep, unspoken understanding of each other's takeout orders" phase of your relationship. You have a matching set of mugs. You have a favorite throw blanket. You even have a well-worn groove in the couch that perfectly fits both of your bodies.

So what do you get each other if you have already built a life together and seemingly own everything in it? You get the one thing you're always running low on: a new experience. Something that will shake up the beautiful, comfortable, and slightly boring routine you've perfected. This is not a list of stuff. It's a list of things to do, a curated collection of memory-makers for the people who have it all.

    Poster of a top 100 movies scratch-off chart hanging with string lights, a unique gift idea for couples who have seen it all.

    Review: "I bought this as a gift for my bf for something for us to work towards together. He really loves movies. We already scratched off the movies we've seen together (21/100) and I look forward to seeing our progress. We used guitar picks to scratch off the movies and tried guessing what image would be underneath. The poster has a smooth finish and none of the images were damaged when scratching off the gold covers. Currently trying to flatten the poster since it comes rolled up. Very happy with this purchase." — Leah R

    The Nightly War Over The Thermostat Can Now Be Officially Declared A Truce Thanks To The Microfiber Dual Zone Comforter

    Review: "The light side is definitely lighter than the heavy side, but not light enough to accommodate a “hot” sleeper in summertime. It’s possible it may be a great winter or even a 3 season quilt for the hot sleeper. Somn is a very good company to work with." - BJDelaware

    Glowing LED diffuser with colorful firework light effects, perfect unique gift idea to impress the couple who has seen it all.

    Review: "I had been looking for a diffuser to use as a small humidifer/light and this one is perfect! It reminds me of stars or a galaxy! The diffuser is very light weight but doesnt look cheap. And the glass part is pretty sturdy too and doesnt feel like it would break super easily. The settings let you cycle through all the colors or you can just pick one color for the light to stay on at. It turns off automatically with a timer which is very convenient. At first I couldnt get the top part to fit on the base but after carefully twisting it on it fit perfectly. Also I am not sure if its pictured but when the lights not on the glass part is just a plain silver color." — brandon wiese

    Black hardcover gift book titled I wrote a book about you, featured as a unique gift idea for couples who have seen it all.

    Review: "I bought this gift for my significant other for Christmas. After reading the other comments and through my own experience, I can say that it’s completely true that it’s hard to do in one or two sittings. And it would have definitely helped to do it with a larger group of people (family members or friends) to complete all the prompts. I was stuck on ideas multiple times and it literally felt like I would never finish. It takes a lot of time and thought as to the person and their personality, their habits, what they like or dislike...This book is really a good way to show your appreciation for that special person in your life, even if the book has a little bit of flaws like faded illustrations or scratches on the book covers. But it is definitely still worth the buy! I added some pictures to show what I attempted. My person’s favorite parts were the little drawings! So I definitely recommend adding doodles in yours!" — K G

    At this stage of the game, the best gift isn't for him or for her; it's for the 'us.' You're shopping for the third entity in the relationship: the couple itself. The one that argues about the thermostat, the one that can't decide on dinner, the one that deserves a break from the endless scroll. Every single item on this list is a tiny, brilliant upgrade to a shared existence, a silent little helper that makes the beautiful, chaotic, and sometimes monotonous business of sharing a life just a little bit easier and a lot more fun.
