Totally skint just now and worried that I wont be giving hubby anything at all for a valentines gift or birthday which is early Feb too.I bought a nice valentines card a couple of weeks ago so just need to get a birthday card and the pressies sorted now.
I have seen posts before re sites for love vouchers etc so I will do those but any more ideas please would be appreciated.My only option this year will be doing a cheapy hamper for him.
Also have been looking for items to swap on "big wardrobe" which would do for his birthday but theres nothing he would like on there at the moment.If anyone has any unwanted mens stuff,unwanted gifts,new or used stuff,t-shirts,dvd,s,rock cd,s etc please get them on big wardrobe for swapping.:D

run up a certificate on your computer promising him a steak diner (or whatever his favorite meal is) and a night of passion.
Most blokes would prefer that than a hamper or socks0 -

for his birthday buy a pack of rolos, take one out the packet and wrap it in a nice box, maybe an old jewerly box if you have one.
Give it to him with a note that says you love him enough to give him your last rolo0 -
Why not bake him a nice big chocolate cake?What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..0

I've just asked my husband, and his response was that a [insert specific sex act] is worth a thousand gifts that you can wrap.
He says his favourite holiday is Steak and BJ Day.
