Valentines Day

[Cajungaltx]

Okay - my DH is up to something for Valentines day - he called this morning to let me know that the military pay he just got is his to use for Valentines day.... hopefully it's either camera related or computer related.

I've got to figure something out for him now.

So guys -insider info here - what kind of stuff do you REALLY like to get for Valentines Day.

I gave him xm radio for Christmas... he has a decent cell phone...and a custom built pc. I could probably get him a gift card to a restaurant that he likes but usually isn't in our budget... but that's kind of be a gift for 'me' as well, cause I'd get to go with him.

So - what would you guys like to get? I probably need to stay under $150 or so.

Speaking for myself, I would have loved for my wife to have dressed real sexy, and tied a bow on herself, with a note that said, " Yours for the next XX hours"

Valentine's Day is not a lucky day for us traditionally... we're happy when nothing happens.

I've already set up an appt at a local spa for a couples massage and his/her facials. Never had a facial before. But it's supposed to be a manly facial.

my "holidays" have typically ended up pretty bad...birthdays, valentines, father's day etc. I'm just happy if I get through it sometimes.

That said, I keep a "wishlist" on Amazon, people are more than welcome to purchase anything off of said list at any time.

Valentine's Day is more of an occassion for women.
Guys just hope they don't screw up and forget it, or get the wrong present.

Your not kidding either :(

I think a gift card to his favorite restaurant then a date doing what he wants to do would be a great gift (especially if you don't try to have dinner out on Valentine's, which is usually ridiculous).

We removed presents from the last holiday we had. I always plan ahead and buy cool stuff I found on sale during the year. My main problem is not hiding my presents so well that I forgot where I put them. LOL. And I'd rather give them when I buy them. It seems silly to wait...b/c I loose them. ha ha.

When did I grow up and present buying got stressful?

Most guys love "hops in the sack", so buy him a six pack and put it in a paper bag.

Dinner at the local hamburger palace and then a "guys" movie would be a treat.

HA HA HA -- Both DH and I came from families where alcohol was drank more frequently than water.... so we tend to 'not' drink for the most part. I go nuts once every blue moon and hit the Patron a bit too hard... lol...what can I say, it's in my blood.

I 'love' giving gifts. LOVE it. Normally, no issues with buying him something... but Valentines day to me is different than Christmas/Birthdays...
