I hope all you guys got the little woman something on this day. Man I sure did. I bought the wife a full dozen of long stem red roses, a card and even a box of candy...

10acboy Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Re: I would like to say... I got off easy this year. My wife won't eat the candy and she has always told me not to buy any flowers since they just die. She told me to just wish her a Happy Valentines Day, so that's what I am going to do.

Tominator Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Re: I would like to say... I'm in a quandary as to what to do for my wife today. candy, cards, and flowers seem so passe; cliche so to speek. I don't know. I'm open to suggestions.

[/ QUOTE ] You can still do the flower, candy, card thing but make it special. Get the Godiva chocolates instead of the cheap drug store stuff, get her a variety of different flowers (tropical ones are a little pricier, but it shows you put some thought into it and they are beautiful!), and pick up (or make) a card for her but write something from your heart in it. I think most women want something that shows you thought about it and didn't just pick up something to be able to say you got her something. Or maybe you can give her a pampering basket. Fill it with bath stuff and lotions (both Philosophy and Victoria Secrets have yummy smelling stuff, as does the bath and body shop if the other stores aren't near you) Or maybe a day at a spa (don't know how much you are looking to spend though) Or you can try jewelry! Happy shopping! And thanks for the Happy Valentines wishes, many wishes to you too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VtBowhunter Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Re: I would like to say... For the future, you guys should check out the Vermont Teddy Bear Company. They will ship anywhere and it will be there the next day. They have a huge selection of bears and I can tell you that the woman in your life will be so happy that she'll forget the money you spent on hunting stuff.

Guest Andrea Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Re: I would like to say... Guess what...I didn't get anything. I got him some candy, some "valentine boxers" and a stuffed lion that says I love you and put it in his truck so he would see it before work. (I guess he saw it) So, I'm not having a good day today.

wtnhunt Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Re: I would like to say... Linda gave some great suggestions. Have also given the tanning sessions like Al mentioned a few times for my wife. Dont usually do flowers, but did for a change this year and they were already there when the wife got to work this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Had to do it saturday because I don't get home on Mondays until after 10 pm. ) I came home and asked him what he got me...told me he didn't have a chance to get anything ( ) so he will take me out to dinner some time. I told him what he can do with his dinner! Hope you DID get something because this really rots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguide Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 Re: I would like to say... We did the dinner and a movie thing which is about it in this town -then took the long way home-kids had the house all cleaned up and dishes done so all in all a pretty good Valentine's.

Alisha Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 Re: I would like to say... Chiming in late to say thanks to griz! I went out on Sunday and bought my mom a dozen roses and got my little sis a bouquet of misc. flowers. I managed to get a bouquet of daisies, a box of chocolates and a balloon, although I would have rather received hunting equipment like a grunt call or something.

[/ QUOTE ] I made the mistake of not putting enough thought into last year's gift so you can be dang sure I didn't do it again this year. I gave the Mrs. a nice card and some jewelry, and she was a much happier camper this year. Sorry to hear that you gals didn't have a happy Valentine's day.
