landtracdeerhunter Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Hope everyone has someone special to celebrate, share your special moment with. ( If so choose) What are you doing for this special day? Studies show the average male spends $130 on their valentine and the average female spend about half. Some people even buy their co-workers something. My wife and I have a special dinner at home. I buy her a nice size lobster, shes for me, a nice angus steak, along wiith twice baked potato, and whole asparagus on the grill..We kind of prepare the meal together.

Steuben Jerry Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 A dozen red roses sent to her office. Always gets favorable reviews. I also send smaller flower bouqets (this year with a small teddy bear) to each of my two daughters, ages 30 and 26. Something I started when the 30 year old's boyfriend broke up with her on valentine's day 8-9 years ago. She started hating valentine's day after that. Now that I started this tradition, I can't seem to give it up. Good old FTD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I sent a dozen roses to my fiance's work. We are going out to eat Friday night, because between the kids and work, we wont be able to before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerthug Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 After being married for 20 years, we don't bother with commercialized made up holidays like Valentines Day anymore. Nevertheless, this year is different. Our Valentines gift to each other was paying off our home mortgage yesterday which is I think better than candy and flowers any day of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmo Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I made reservations to this super romantic restaurant. She said since we're saving for a vacation later, I should not spend the money. Score! That's $200-$300 I didn't have to spend. I think I'll use that on a new Harris bi-pod and other accessories. Just kidding! She is very sensible though which is why she's a keeper. We'll be spending the night at home watching the Knicks game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phade Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I was smart. I bought some pink camo lingerie at the harrisburg show...she'll get that tonight. Gift for her...but really for me. Actually, it was more for comedic effect, but she'll get a kick out of it. Card, some flowers, and a home cooked dinner is in order tonight.

Karpteach Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) My wife and I celebrate valentines day, every day! Since this is my second go round in the marriage dept, it seems to be working! We are together 15 years! Tell them u love them you love them every chance you get, buy little Things here and there and MOST of all listen to what they say(you will most likely not agree with them just listen)!

landtracdeerhunter Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the replies everyone. Glad you enjoyed it. Dinner went well, Lobster prices are up and their was a shortage in our area. I thought about hunting supplies, for the misses, but that just wouldn't fly, if you know what I mean. I do see a dozen bolts on the horizon though., maybe for the old birthday. Edited February 15, 2012 by landtracdeerhunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
