jayeffscene Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Looking to send some flowers to my lady on Valentine's Day and I don't think I'm gonna get out of it without spending $50+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Flowers are cool, not knocking them but I bet you could find equally touching gifts that are more personalized than flowers for WAY cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonesomexloveus Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 as a girl, i'd much rather get something other than flowers. flowers just aggravate my allergies and are dead in a week or two. if you're spending that much money go with a stuffed animal or something she can actually keep and enjoy longer than a few weeks. then again, i'm weird.

She has a stuffed bear that will never be ousted. What else would you like to get? records, haha. but assuming she doesn't collect vinyl, last year my boyfriend got me this personalized frame with both our names on it and put a picture of us in it. i never expected him to pick something like that out on his own and it seriously has been my favorite gift of anything he's ever gotten me (and he's gotten me some pretty expensive stuff lol) check it out:www.personalizationmall.com http://www.personalizationmall.com/Personalized-Love-Photo-Frame-with-Red-Hearts-p5152.prod?sdest=dept&sdestid=1015&storeid=16&categoryid=1015 that's the exact one he got me and i freaking love it.

punkrudeboy Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 On v-day for my ex one year she told me not to buy flowers cuz they always died on her. So what I did was I went out and took a bunch of pictures of her favorite flower and I framed and matted the photos and gave it to her as her gift. It cost me half the price of what a dozen roses would of cost. <3 Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonesomexloveus Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 wow, what a bitch. Don't get down on yourself, lonesome. lol, don't worry. and seriously, check out those frames/anything else on that site. girls love personalized crap (myself included) cuz you (meaning the guy) spending money on something personalized means that you plan on at least sticking around long enough to make it worth your while to spend said money on something with both your names on it. that and it's just really cute, lol.

lokithelion Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Dude make her something, or somethings. Mix Cd, w/ hand drawn art, cook her dinner, a nice bottle of wine, and a massive piece of poster board with flowers drawn on it. It sounds goofy and cheap, but it shows effort and personalization. Girls go nuts over that shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
