Ahhh yes, break out the cheap champagne and the condoms, this glorious day comes only once a year. It’s February 14th and Valentines Day is upon us. Today is the day that Hallmark stores and flower shops live for. Valentines Day is a a great day to buy your spouses gifts and show them some much needed affection.

Although the wife may tell you she wants flowers, chocolates, or jewelry; in reality she probably wants something more practical. I mean flowers, chocolate, and jewelry is so standard. Why not go above and beyond this year and get your wife something she can really use and appreciate. Here are a few ideas gentlemen, you can thank me later.

1. A New Vacuum - I can’t think of a better gift for that special lady in your life. Go all out this valentines day and get her one that’s self propelled. These women work hard for us, and I feel morally obligated to provide them with the tools they need to be successful.

2. A Brand New Ab Roller -If you’re wife is like mine, then you know fitness plays an important role in keeping her happy. As a Two Time Husband of The Year Recipient (2006/2007) I have found that nothing says I love you more on Valentines Day than fitness equipment. This is a way to show your sweetheart that you really care about her health and well being.

3. Maid Cart - With so many supplies, and such a robust assortment of cleaning items to keep our castle’s clean, we have to make sure our wives can stay organized. My wife loves having the flexibility of being able to push the maid cart around from room to room during her daily cleaning. I highly recommend this product for all your wives. When your wife sees how thoughtful you can truly be, it will probably bring tears of joy to her eyes.

4. Kegerator - Most wives realize that men work hard all day and appreciate being served refreshments in the evening. There’s no sense in making this portion their day any more difficult guys. A kegerator will allow your sweetheart to serve you without breaking fingernails or or harming her precious hands. The last thing you want to do is contribute to carpal tunnel syndrome on either of her “cleaning hands”

5. Custom Stripper Pole - Most wives will never admit it, but they do secretly love when we come home from the strip club at 2:00 AM smelling like booze and perfume. Why not bring the romance back this valentines day by including your wife in on the fun? With your new kegerator, perhaps you could even invite your buddies over to watch the show and feed your wife $1 dollar bills. Nothing says I love you better than giving your wife the opportunity to financially contribute to the household.

So there you have it gentlemen. As you can see, the back to back 2006/2007 Husband of The Year Award was not just given to me. I had to work hard for it and prove my thoughtfulness. With gift idea like the ones above, you are sure to have one of the most romantic nights of your life. Enjoy the moment, and share in her tears of joy as she thanks you repeatedly for thinking of her needs this valentines day.
