Worst Valentine's Day Gifts Ever
Stuffed Animals
Unless your girlfriend actually collects stuffed animals, or is 12, do not buy her a stuffed animal for Valentine's Day. (If your girlfriend is actually 12 and you're not, you have other issues). Stuffed animals are what you get a girl when you don't know what else to buy her, or you've waited until the last minute and that is all that is left on the cleaned-out store shelves.
And stuffed animals for guys? I don't think so.
Appliances
Your girlfriend or wife may desperately need a new toaster or vacuum cleaner but don't dare buy one for Valentine's Day. An appliance is practical, useful, and completely impersonal. It is everything a Valentine's Day gift is not.
A Card with a Moneyholder
...or any other inappropriate Valentine's Day card. The key to not buying the wrong type of Valentine's Day card, like one that is for your mother, or on that has a proposal (big oops), is to actually read the card before you purchase it. Take the time to find one that is appropriate for your current relationship and where it is going.
A Key Chain that Says "I Love You
Unless you are inviting someone to move in with you, and there is a key attached, do not give a key chain for Valentine's Day.
Lingerie
Lingerie for Valentine's Day is a tough one. If you know your woman's exact sizes, the styles she likes and you know for a fact that she enjoys wearing lingerie, then go ahead and take the plunge. If you have not been intimate yet, or are buying a red and black teddy because you like it, don't.
Clothing of any Kind
A woman does not want a pretty red sweater for Valentine's Day either, or a teddy bear sweatshirt for that matter. She does not want to think about you thinking about her putting more clothes on.
Jewelry in a Ring-Sized Box
A household cleaning appliance, even a pink one, is never a good gift for Valentine's Day.
