Any great ideas for what to get DH (or DW) for Valentine's Day this year? I want to come up with something special and not too $$, but I'm drawing a blank so far!

(Just to clarify, I'm looking for a small gift idea or something--not necessarily a "date" idea, as DH usually plans that.)

I'm stumped too.

My favorite Valentine's Day gift for DH ( which I do every year) is to get a "make your own " 6 pack of beer (at Whole Foods or World Market). They usually have fun ones like Chocolate beer.
I pair this with a list of 14 reasons I love him and it makes an easy, creative gift!
Good luck!

This is what DH is getting. He has terrible intermittent neck muscle pain so I think he will really like this. We don't usually buy massager technology things or gifts this expensive for Valentine's Day.

I actually got a *ahem* magic wand massager for Christmas that plugs in and is way, way too strong to do anything other than massage your neck and shoulders so... we're all set in that department.

I stumbled upon an awesome sale at Banana Republic this week with 50% off of sale prices, scoring a cranberry red merino wool sweater for $6.50 (from $60) and 3 pair of boxer shorts for $2.50 each (regularly $16.50 each). We really do not exchange gifts for V-day but this was too good to pass up.

I think I'm getting DH a massage for Valentines day. His back is in horrible shape lately. He needs a deep tissue massage in a bad way.

I generally do home made sugar cookies cut out in a heart shape. Some years I do an icing pen and write the top 10 things I love about him (one one each cookie).
