My husband bought me one simple red rose and it was absolutely amazing. Enough of going out and spending huge amounts of money when America is suffering. Simple is best is my book.

@spagma: That's one of the MANY reasons Valentine's Day ROCKS! Ha! Trust me, the mister got plenty from me for Valentine's Day- in gifts and experiences. In fact, I think it is HIS favorite holiday! :-)

Overrated holiday. It always seems to be about what he does for her, what he gets her, or where he takes her.

I once made a heart-shaped meatloaf for my husband on Valientines, wrote I love you in catsup.

Valentine pizza is awesome. At work we were actually talking about how great it would be to get a pizza instead of roses or chocolates, and boom I open the huff and there it is.......

Pizza is one of my faves, but my first thought was of heartburn.

When I was a teen I worked at a pizza take out place that did heart-shaped pizzas. They weren't very popular, so there were lots of left over pizza dough pressed into the heart-shaped-pans that had to be eaten. Got free heart-shaped pizzas for a while. That was cool.

I once got an oil lamp. No kidding. The best part? Valentine's Day is also my birthday, so it was a combo-gift. Nice, huh?

Was it at least a sexy oil lamp?

I got the Shit Bitch bear 7 years ago, and it's been on display the whole time. I love it because I have a sense of humor and don't take Valentines - or any holiday - seriously. They're all just societal habits that no one bothers to question the point of participation in. Xmas? Jesus was NOT born in December! Easter: Pagan Fertility Holiday, etc. Don't get me started on weddings!

Pizza is awesome any day of the year.

A Duct Tape bouquet would be awesome! How original is that? Plus, I don't like getting flowers, and being silver, they'd match the house.

I hate pink anything, so no to the PS3 (plus we already have one).

My husband and I do Graphic Design and would be highly offended at the use of Papyrus!!

That Diamond Ring is so garish I wouldn't wear it or use it as a keychain.

Making a special app for me? That would be cool. Doesn't need all the hearts and flowers. PacMan would suffice. What's wrong w $1.99?

The rest of the shit are things my husband and I wouldn't even buy as joke gifts, but they're in the vein of "fun", so who cares?

This is not a holiday any emotionally stable person puts to much stock in. It puts pressure on some men who already have to deal with us emotional chicks and stick it out with us. I'm happy to be a low-maintenance wife and so is my husband. :)

Someone gave us edible undies. That's a lot of sugar to eat before you get to the real sugar.

Hey, its better than getting nothing! I had that a couple years ago! I got a "Oh yeah , I guess we should go eat or something?" No reservations, and a dump restaraunt was all that was left.
I had an ex husband who used a buy one/get one free coupon for V Day dinner!

Luckily this year, though out of town for work, I got my FTD flowers and chocolates! And he got his red wine gift from me to his hotel!

You could have always taken it upon yourself to make the reservations or plan for the V Day dinner. You complain that he took you to a dump restaurant, and used a coupon. From his point of view, you sat on your butt and did nothing but complain. It is after all supposed to be about both of you, not just what he does for you.

OMG, first Valentine, how dare I think HE would at least make reservations... I was out buying him gifts for Valentine's Day, when he called saying "I guess you wanna eat or something cuz its valentines" !!! I got him several items of his favorite things. So, put a sock in it when you do not know all the facts, or put your own spagma in your mouth as I am sure its why you label yourself that! Its all that comes out!
I did what I could to be romantic. Oh, and BTW, I paid for the dinner too!

OMGosh!!!........ I completely agree with "spagma"..... you sat on your butt & waited on him to do everything for you...... you could have made the reservations or had a special dinner cooked with candles &/or been waiting in a negligee teddy when he came home from work........... IT TAKES TWO IN A MARRIAGE!!!!!.............. & so what if he used a coupon...... so that's more money left over to spend on something else or for ya'll to go do something together!!!

& never send a man liquor on V-Day when he is out of town..... do you think he sat in his hotel room & drank it by himself & thought of you........... wrong......... he probably shared it with the cute front desk clerk that was having to work on V-Day too!!!!!

Why is a heart shaped pizza horrible? I had a lou malnatti's heart shaped pizza one year and it was awesome.

When I was in retail, I remember the razors and d.ouch.es selling more briskly than usual every year.
