Will you be shopping for a gift for a special man this Valentine's Day? It's cool, you don't have to tell me. Just wink. I can keep your secret. 

If you are going to be buying a man a Valentine's gift this year, you're probably going to need some ideas. Men are hard to shop for, it's a fact.

@fredamans, I don't think that comment was necessary but I think you said it best, you have a senior husband, I think that says it all... P.S. those head phones are bright red not pink.

Great ideals for all budgets! I'd love to see my sweetheart wear boots like that! Maybe with time ;)
I'm lucky this year, mine only wants me to bake him apple danishes! That's easy enough!!! :)

The only things on here that my guy would want is the chocolate, but we never by for each other on Vday so I don't have to worry about it.

@fredamans: Sorry but I have to disagree with you here. I don't think these are gifts that "women think men should have". I do however think that each gift idea -as with any gift idea- depends on the man. I know my husband would absolutely love pretty much all of the gift ideas listed here. The only thing he probably would want to modify is the red colour of the headphones. Although I know him and I know he'd totally rock them in the house.

About the red headphones; there's a guy who works in my building who wears big bright headphones; a different colour each day that matches the colour of his outfit! Like his satchel, shoes and headphones are a perfectly matched bright colour. So far I've seen him in neon green, neon blue, orange, red and pink. I wish I could take a pic of him but that would probably be borderline creepy so... you'll just have to take my word for it. :-)
