8 year anniversary

Oh haha then "something bronze" or "something made of linen or lace" are the typical 8 year gifts

Exactly what I was going to ask. We need more info here!

Now, since you didn't give us any info at all, and made an extremely vague post, I'm just going to say what I do and what I would do.

I don't buy my partner sex toys. He's male and has no interest in them. As a small random gift, I've bought him things like shaving cream (Max of course!) cologne, clothing, knife, sunglasses.

As a big anniversary thing, if I was looking to buy him something sexual, depending on OUR preferences, I'd go with something like light BDSM items or the sex swing. I've actually bought the sex swing and things like door cuffs, door swing, under the bed restraints, handcuffs, etc. Those are fun, but for a really big occasion, I like to buy him something more useful. Something he can use outside the bedroom as well, but I love to throw in something dirty too!

It completely depends on the person's preferences and how large of a gift you're going for. My partner loves to fish (blah!) so fishin' gear would make his day. Like I said, we don't know your partner and you gave us nothing to go by, so it's hard to say. Maybe some of these ideas others have posted will spark a good idea though.

what'd you end up getting him?
