Boyfriend's Birthday - Any Ideas?

Hello everyone - I'm looking for your creative ideas here 
It's my boyfriend's birthday a week today (he's 31) and I haven't got a clue what to get him :rolleyes: - he's one of these men who if he sees something he wants then he just buys it!!
I can't really afford to give him any money/vouchers. I know there are a couple of DVDs that he wants which I am going to buy from Ebay but is there anything people can think off that wouldn't cost too much?
I was thinking of maybe making him something food wise like some cakes of something. He's a very difficult man to please though (aren't they all! :rotfl: )

I once made my b/friend a booklet of 10 sexual tokens redeemable at anytime as a birthday present.
I did it on the computer so it looked nice and "professional" lol.
I wont go into too many details as to what each token said - but you can use your imagination and go wild!
He said it was his best birthday present ever...and it didn't cost me a penny
Good luck on your pressie hunt.

That sounds like a good idea, I think I will try that - the problem is that he'll probably show it around to all of his mates and hand the vouchers out :rotfl: - I'll have to put that they are only redeemable by him!!0 -

OMG! I am defintely going to show this post to wife. I'm sure your boyfriend will be well pleased with this gift! I'd be over the moon! :TSIMPLE SIMON - Met a pie man going to the fair. Said Simple Simon to the pie man, "What have you got there?" Said the pie man unto Simon, "Pies, you simpleton!"0 -
If you have access to a printer you can make them on http://www.fun-vouchers.org.uk/. I used these for a birthday present last year and they went down well.
Thanks

Cheers Carrie...I like those vouchers. I am printing off a few as we speak. :T0

Well the sexual voucher thing has already been mentioned.
How about a book of bacon sandwich vouchers? you must promise that they are redeemable at any time, day or night. if he wants a bacon sandwich,the presentation of a bacon sandwich voucher will have the grill on and the bread buttered within 20 seconds....0 -
Does he like cake? I posted a recipe for chocolate yoghurt cake on the money saving old style boards (see link) which is very yummy

My OH has a birthday soon and I'll probably make this for a birthday cake (although I think he might also appreciate the voucher idea too!!:rotfl: :rotfl:)You - only you- will have stars that can laugh :rotfl:

a nice romantic meal cooked by you of all his favourite foods?
i gave my BF a vouchers booklet a couple of years ago (bought from ann summers as i only have a printer at work and that was just a bad idea!) - i had to declare 2 vouchers invalid (and no, i won't go into details!!!), but much as he appreciated them, he's never used them!! i think he's too embarassed!!
