Valentine's Day is coming up this weekend. I was talking to some girlfriends over the weekend about cool gifts to get their sweethearts this Valentine's Day. I would say women are super easy to buy for but it's cool to get them something they don't expect. I mean don't get me wrong a card, chocolates and roses wouldn't bum me out. It's just nice to know know someone put a little extra time in and got something for you that you weren't expecting.
