What do you want on Valentine's Day?

Today's the day when more electronic cards are sent than any other day. The average man will spend $156 on cards, gifts and dinner.



Here are some suggestions:

• Roses will once again be the most purchased flower at premium rates. Be different and choose some else like a bird of paradise or an orchid.
  
• Chocolates are decadent, rather than buy a big box, go a splurge on a few personally selected truffles in a small well-wrapped gift box.
  
• Are you creative and have a little time, hand-make your Valentine card.
  
• Want to do something different, book a couple of hours at a spa as a gift followed by flowers as she exits and then whisk her away to a very quiet restaurant with great food.
  

Here are some no-nos.

• Plastic flowers, yeah, they'll last but your relationship won't
  
• Dinner at MacDonalds, I know they make great fries but the decor is definitely a mood killer
  
• Going to a movie, holding hands is cute but you really want to be talking to your date all night long
  

Cheap gifts that have the most impact!

• A warm hug
  
• A long smile
  
• A lingering caress
  
• A gentle kiss
  
• A loving backrub
