Go for something like the bench. Something special that shows you actually gave a **** and thought a lot about it. Anyone can go buy a Mixer (Not in reference to what anyone said in here.) It's like going in Walmart and grabbing the first thing you see, ya know?
Do you have a buddy who's good with wood work and could help you make a bench?
For our first anniversary, I bought the Dr. Suess book, "Oh the places you'll go" and crossed out and re-wrote (I have good handwriting so it didn't look bad) the "I" and "you" to "we" and "us", and then wrote a really long love note on the first page. We didn't have a lot of money to work with, and it showed I actually put thought into it. That's my 25 year old opinion anyways.
