I was wondering what are some ideas for a really cute thoughtful gift for my boyfriend for valentines day. We will have been together for 6 months, 5 days after so it's kinda doubling as a 6 month present too. I just want something not to pricey that really comes from the heart. I kinda want it to be hand made. Thanks! (:
Okay so I don't have a house or license. I need something handmade. Thanks

Make a simple dinner at home, then go out dancing or to listen to live music at a
jazz club.
28. Play a sport together that you haven’t played in awhile, or that you rarely get a
chance to enjoy. Before you start, determine what the “winner” gets (making it
something to do with caring, loving, etc.).
29. Leave a “racy” picture on your mate’s cell phone. Text a romantic message at a
time of day when you know things get hectic.
30. Present your Valentine IOU coupons: I will make dinner; I will do the laundry; I will
take care of the kids one day a month for the next year; I will clean the kitchen for
a week; I will serve you breakfast in bed.
31. Together, go “shopping” at a sex-toy store without spending any money. It’ll give
you ideas and get you “in the mood.”
32. The tough economy has lured many upscale restaurants to have high-end earlybird
specials. Find out what’s available in your area.
33. Some volunteer fire departments use holiday fauna to create flower and rose
bouquets as a fund-raiser. Prices are reasonable; just get there early.
34. If she loves chocolate…Take her on a chocolates tour. Find your hometown
chocolate purveyor and ask for a behind-the-scenes tour. Next, go to a restaurant
that serves her favorite chocolate dessert. Return home to snuggle with a cup of
hot chocolate.
35. Use a bar of soap to draft a love note on your bathroom mirror. Or, if you shower
first, write a love note to your sweetheart in the steam on the mirror.
36. Write “I love you because….” notes and insert them into balloons. Blow up the
balloons, and spread the balloons throughout your bedroom for your Valentine to
pop and capture each message.
37. Many drug stores with photo departments offer a variety of Valentine’s Day
specials to make gifts from photographs. Use a good picture of the two of you
together.
38. Make homemade chocolate-covered strawberries: 1) Melt a package of
chocolate chips in a double boiler and add a small amount of oil; 2) Remove from
heat and quickly dip the strawberries into the chocolate; 3) Place on wax paper
and refrigerate for several hours until chocolate is firm.
39. Guys…If you want to order flowers for your gal, supermarket florists are generally
half the price of the stand-alone or on-line stores, but the trick to for seeing real
savings is to order two weeks or more in advance and pay for the flowers up
front………..Another trick to save money, get other guys who want to order flowers
to join you and place your orders to the same florist all at once. The florist may
give you a “bulk” discount. Again, important to plan ahead.
40. Plan a scavenger hunt. Write clues and place them in envelopes, and place the
envelopes around town. Make the final clue a doozey of a destination.

Any good Ideas for presents to soldiers in Iraq?
Meg
So my love is overseas in Iraq, and it's our first deployment. What are good gifts to send that they can't just buy themselves and doesn't have them missing home even more. The only idea I've heard so far is a themed game night package, any other themed ideas?
Answer
I sent a package to my husband like every two weeks when he deployed. I also have an 11 page attachment if you would like it that have different themed care packages that i have put together through hubby's deployments. These theme care packages make it a little more fun to shop for when you have a certain theme in mind. I have used many of them and then you can just talior it to your hubby. Here are some other sites:

Some things I sent hubby:
-things and snacks that i knew he would like. I also sent him things that his friends liked to because they didn't get much.
-cd's of his favorite music
-lots of cards and letters
-I also sent him a box full of unused cards such as thinking of you, Christmas Cards, Birthday Cards, Miss you cards, etc., that he could send back home to family and friends. It is hard to find cards there.
-I sent him Cake in A Jar

-Sent him themed Care Packages (some can be as cute as you want and some can be as adult as you make it). One time I took a picture of our front door closed from the outside. Then a picture of the front door open and a picture of the floor. Then a picture of my shirt on the floor, then a picture of my shoes on the floor, then my socks on the floor, then my pants on the floor, then took a picture of my bra on the floor, then I took a picture of my undies on the floor, then I took a picture of our bedroom, then I took a picture of just the bed. Then put a little note that said wish you were here, miss you in my bed. Something like that. Remember though to take the pictures while making your way to the bedroom with the stuff on the floor so it looks like you are dropping your colthes on the way to the bedroom.
-Another thing you can do: buy a new pillowcase. Every night before you go to bed, take a shower but leave your hair a little damp before getting into bed. After a week, the pillowcase will smell like you. Package this up in a ziploc baggie and send a note with it "Something to remind you of me".
-Write in a journal. I sent this to hubby after every 2-3 months. Of course he still got plently of cards and letters but the journal was more thoughtful and more personal. I would write in it right before I went to bed. I wrote everything down, just like a regular journal. My feelings, what i did, what I ate, something that was funny to me that day, something that made me think of him that day, that I spoke to so and so, what the kids did, etc.,,. I then sent that to him. You know that sometimes we always don't get that long phone call or forget to tell them certain things by the time we do talk to them. Or letters that we don't want to make to long because we don't have the time. Hubby loved this because he said it still made him feel close to me and the kids even though he was gone for a year.
-Send him a photo album. Include pictures of his family, your family (as long as he likes them), kids, you, friends, his favorite car, his favorite boat, his favorite place to eat, his favorite place to visit, etc., I sent something like this to him and included letters from friends and family. I also put together a photo album every 4 months for him of things the girls and I did.
-Does he need anything for his room: storage containers, shelves, blankets, new sheets, pillows, footlockers (you know those rectangle black ones), a clock, picture frames, towels, washclothes, shower curtains (you would be surpised how yucky the ones they are using are), a foldable chair, a small table, paper plates, cups, silverware, a small rug for in front of his bed, etc.,
-Indivdually wrapped goodies and snacks. This way they stay fresher. this also includes the drink mixes that can be added to water.
-slippers, robe
