Guys, don't be suckers. Tell her you love her 365 and that this is just marketing bullshit.
Chances are she'll either throw a stromp or you're in!

That's only worth the risk when you're not married to 'em ;)

When married Chocadmin, they should be grateful you chose them. Tell Mrs Chocadmin that.
She'll understand.

Isn't valentines day the day when you send a card anonymously to someone you would like to get romantic with?  What is the point of getting or sending a valentine to someone you are already in a relationship with?

To prove you still love them of course!

I had a big box of Thorntons Premium.  Could do better but any port in a storm!

Would you still be with them if you didn't love them?

Yes that GC is shallow and insecure.
Some flowers and chocolates, perhaps a bottle of perfume.
OH! He still loves me! ;)

Some men go to the pub and beat their wives/girlfriends 364 days of the year but all that is forgotten for a red rose and a 49p card come valentines day.

Can I just mention that my 'To prove you still love them of course' comment was a little, shall we say, tongue in cheek!

I think it's a nice gesture.  I always buy my wife a card and she does the same for me.  I also bought her a red jasper heart and she bought me four Cure CD's!  We've got enough chocolate at the moment anyway.

Ok how many of you felt you needed to have sex purely because it was valentines day?

Why just have sex on V Day, when you can have sex all the time?

Get your hubby to buy you a pair of stockings next Valentines. The right leg should have Easter written on it and the left Christmas.
Put them on and invite him up between the holidays.(http://www.bbc.co.uk/606/2/refresh/images/smileys/f_laugh.gif)

It's when you do the Shake-n-Vac to put the freshness back.

It's when you spray febreeze everywhere and say i've been at it all day.

Febreeze doesn't get the stains out when you've been at it all day.
