I know Valentine's Day is a month away. I have decided to find a different way of giving presents to my wife on this next Valentine's Day. I know women love roses or flowers on the holiday, some like candy. For us guys, it can get boring and expensive. Especially when you pay nearly a hundred bucks for a good dozen of roses.
Here is what I decided to do for Valentine's Day. And no worries, my wife never reads my blog so she will never know. After all of these years, she still thinks I am not romantic. I try to tell her differently, but it hasn't sunk in yet. For those of you who worry about roses, don't worry. I will still get her a dozen roses at Cosco.
I joined Listia about three weeks ago and have found my talent. I used to buy and sell on eBay for years and I am doing well on this Listia auction. If you want to join, go to Listia.com or join on the right side of my blog. I have won over twenty items on the site and have little/no money in it. I have given my wife four or five gifts and the surprise in her eyes gave me my idea for Valentine's Day.
I am collecting a bunch of goodies off Listia and saving them for Valentine's Day. I will make up a goodie bag filled with all of her favorite lady things, wrap it up and see what she thinks. I might throw in a poem and put those boring roses beside the gift. We will see what she thinks. If she likes it, fantastic, if not, back to the drawing board for next year.
