#3514810 - 02/09/12 12:26 AM What to get her for Valentine's Day ???
Harry-the-Ruskie Hotshot Registered: 03/09/02 Posts: 6009 Loc: Malaysia	Stuck for ideas. Give me your suggestions. I already bought her a Samsung Galaxy S2 smartphone for Christmas/New Year. Of course some fine dining on the night in question. But what of a gift ? Roses and lingerie ? Too cliche and she's not the girly girl type....more of a pragmatic individual, so would not care much for stuff with little practical utility.

Originally Posted By: Cali I'm getting my wife PX90, she is a fitness girl and has been wanting that or insanity for a while. What is this 'insanity' you speak of? This normally comes free of charge. Don't they all involuntarily go 'insane' once a month anyways....I don't recall having to pay for the pleasure of this spectacle. Err, monetarily at least. She did once tolchock me over the head with a frying pan after I made an apparently 'inappropriate' comment regarding werewolves and silver bullets.....Which didn't go down too well at the time. Single atm, and quite gladly lol. Freeeeedom! Panzer is right, its all a crock of money spinning crap hehe. Being culturally obliged/enforced to be 'romantic' on a given day is a bit weak. You should be giving her Barry White stylee Walrus of Love affection 24-7. Keep it smooth, man. _________________________ "I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us.

Chef Member Registered: 05/27/01 Posts: 456 Loc: Etowah, NC	I just plan on telling the wife Valentine's Day are for people who have sex so it doesn't concern us. Last year I got her some real nice roses I was able to get from a female co-worker who had a guy trying to make up to her for $20. They worked about as well for me as they did for the other guy so I'm not throwing away anymore money down that hole...

oldgrognard Hotshot Registered: 11/15/01 Posts: 8384 Loc: USA	Originally Posted By: Immermann Perhaps Not SFW. (Depending on how stuck up you are ) That kit is a ripoff. They don't give you enough material to finish it. You have to buy two kits and then you have almost half of one left over. I think they do this on purpose to sell more. _________________________ Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Dart Contributing Editor Just upgraded from intern Veteran Registered: 09/02/01 Posts: 16536 Loc: Alabaster, AL USA	Funeral homes always have flowers available and will part with them for next to nothing. Just remember to remove the "With my deepest condolences" ribbon or card.
