I figured this would be a good time to discuss some ideas vday. The gf and I both work(waitress and florist) so we are quite tired by the end of the day and end up usually having a picnic in front of the fireplace and generally don't give a crap about the day. I did find this little obscure gift for her https://bronxzoo.com/roach . You can name a cockroach and get sent a little plush one with a certificate. Way cooler then the name a star bs.

I usually get something for my daughter for Valentine's Day. I adopted an animal in her name from TurtleBack Zoo this year. There are a bunch to pick from https://www.z2systems.com/np/clients/turtleback/giftstore.jsp

Ammo,Chocolates and a bunch of flowers can never go bad

Stopped feeding the retailer fake holiday crap years ago. Go to the grocery store get two containers of strawberries and a bag of semi sweet morsels. Melt them in the microwave dip the chocolate and get a bottle of your favorite adult beverage.  Works every time. Simple low cost.  After a while you realize what makes it work has nothing to do with what the retailers think. 

Call her boss, Get her off of work for a weekend without her knowing. Book a room at a B&B for that weekend.

At only 5 years we already are this way. We always get each other something small and end up just having a nice night out together

a dozen red roses and a nice steak or seafood spot.  if anyone is in the area, I recommend Cliff's steakhouse in englewood cliffs.  I love their ribeyes and side dishes...

If she is currently or is on her way to becoming a "serious" girl friend, then I would definitely reconsider this gag gift.

It could very well be received the wrong way and your attempt at humor will have backfired with some potential unfortunate consequences.

Others have posted some very good ideas that probably would be appreciated by her far more than this roach thing....

Whether we like it or not, or buy into the commercialization of the day, (your family's flower/garden/nursery business certainly benefits from it....), women of all ages have come to expect something nice from the man in their lives.  Don't spoil it for her, and then subsequently yourself....

Enjoy the day.

After 5 years I'd say we are pretty serious. Come on dude you know my post content, my gf would have to have a pretty twisted sense of humor to deal with me that long. This thread wasn't really about me getting ideas any more for you all to share yours
