I've been with my wife for 20 years.
Don't get her anything. She isn't leaving you.
When you fall for the ole' "Don't get me anything" trick once….and you cave and get her something she's going to do it all the time.
She said she didn't want anything, so that's what she should get. If she wanted a present she should speak up. That's what grown ups do…not play some silly "don't get me anything, but I'm going to be mad if you don't" game.
You're no mind reader, and if you allow her to make you feel guilty for your lack of psychic abilities then you deserve the hell she's going to give you.
Always keep your pimp hand strong, son.

This is a retarded thread, you guys don't care after 12 years and your lack of a gift proves that

so... marriage is basically "buy me something or I'll make your life hell"
Like someone else said, just repeat what they said. "You said not to buy you anything. I did what you asked. Now STFU."

Time to put a bow on your manhood and slip into bed and whisper "and you thought I didn't get you anything for our anniversary"

My wife probably would divorce me if I bought her $200 gold earrings for Christmas
$200 for a pair of small loop 14k gold earrings is norm (about the going price). They are not so 4" dia hood rat loop earrings, they are about 3/4" in dia

My wife said all week not to get her anything (we just got back from Disney, spent money on Christmas, 2 kids, etc).
You didn't screw up...the fallout just depends on what type you married. Reasonable (yeah I know...highly unlikely as she's a woman and all) or unreasonable. Given the situation you explained, a reasonable woman would have meant what she said. Hopefully the bottle of scotch was simply an "I love you and I appeciate all that you do" gesture.

Let me get this straight
You are sitting with a present in hand and you are worried about screwing up an Anniversary.
1. Place box containing the earrings under her pillow
2. Act casual, but slightly coy.
3. Do not fall into the fight trap.
4. Let her find the gift on her own.
5. Buy matching bracelet as x-mas present.
6. ?????
7. Profit.
I always have an extra piece of jewelry hidden in the car for those "Oh, this is the anniversary of our first (date/kiss/liaison, etc. - all those little things I just don't track). Boy Scout Motto - Be Prepared.

YOU DIDN'T EVEN GET A CARD?????!!!!!
Seriously...not even a card?
I'm a HUGE card person. My husband knows this. We went on vacation for our 2 year anniversary so that was our gift to each other. But I still got him a card(I mean..they are only like 3 bucks, spent 30 minutes searching for just the right one as well). I hand him the card, nothing back and he says "wait, but the trip is our gift to each other"
Lesson.....ALWAYS get a card.
