Valentine's Day/Anniversary
Valentine's Day is coming up pretty quickly! (It's also my anniversary.) Does anyone have any suggestions on what to get a guy for this? I usually make candy boquet's for my boyfriend; however, I have done that for the past few years. I've also done the coupon book thing...I'm looking for something different! Guys are so hard to buy for. Ideas, please!

I agree. Guys are sooo hard to buy for. I always try to think of something that is like 90+% for him, to balance out the girly gifts/favors he gets me. i.e. flowers, candies, and/or romantic dinners... So what is your bf into?

That's the thing that makes it so hard--He's not really "hardcore" into a lot of things. Sure, he likes sports, playing video games, traveling, but I wouldn't say that there's something he's "really into." He's pretty laid back and easy to please. That's why I've gone with the more generic gifts like a candy boquet and that kind of stuff before. I'm just tired of giving the same kind of thing every year!
Although Audgie's suggestion would probably go over pretty well. lol

Haha, not too sure about the second suggestion! <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-innocent.gif" border="0" alt="Innocent" title="Innocent" />
One year I gave DH a Netflix subscription. He loved that. We still have it.
One year I bought lingerie for myself. That worked great! He's all about new lingerie.
I am thinking of getting him an in-game minipet for World of Warcraft this year, along with a cake from the bakery that made our wedding cake and a bottle of the champagne we drank at the reception.
Can't remember other years... hmm... new video games or game points always do well with DH. Food is a huge hit, too. He loves food.
That's all I got. Also, check out www.thinkgeek.com and see if anything there strikes you as something he'd be into.
Ooooh, we don't do Valentines, but now I really can't wait until BF's birthday!
and candy

Family Guy, anyone?

BF took me to this really cool place that had go karts, all kinds of games, and stuff for our anniversary and then took me to a really nice dinner. Definitely one of the best dates we had, we got to act like kids and then dress up and have a fancy date.
@Elle-Family guy may just be the best show ever.
"Well a bird bird bird, a bird is the word. Hey have you heard about the bird? Everybody's heard about the bird!"
(...Omg. Stupid bird is the word...everytime my BF & I see that Family Guy episode, he loves to sing it a few times after just to make sure it's pretty well stuck in my head! Grrr.)
We don't buy gifts for Valentine's day. I second someone else's idea of tickets for an event you can go to together - concert tickets, whatever.
Follow the event with the other suggestions of BJ and anal for a sure win.
I am also not sure what to do about Valentine's day since my boss might send me out of town at any moment in the next week and not be back until I'm not sure when, which might mean, no Valentine's Day with BF. Not sure at whom I should be pissed: Boss or Costumer, since our Costumer told us to be there last minute.
Have any of you ever had to spend Valentine's without SO unexepectantly?
mzm- This is the first year that I won't be with my BF to celebrate V-day
