Today is Valentines Day, and even if you didn’t get a gift or card from a significant other, you can still satisfy your craving for Valentine’s themed goodies right here. For your viewing pleasure, some of the Valentine’s Day treasures we found this year…

Mr/Ms Perfect USB companion – sends you messages until you clobber it with your fist
Lonely? Wish there were a plastic doll that would talk nicely to you from desk while tethered via 4 foot USB cable? I don’t either but this may be perfect for the super geeky or super lonely. Select from either “lovely” or “cheeky” messages. The former sends you constant reinforcement during the day, while the later is decidedly NSFW (not safe for work) and guaranteed to be a little saucier. Requires a PC with Microsoft Windows XP and an Internet connection. Mr/Ms Perfect USB Companion – $4.99

Use the top sectioned drawers to organize rings, earrings, bracelets, watches and necklaces (USB thumb drives and spare cell phone batteries will fit too), the second level has a space to charge three electronic devices such as cell phone, PDA, MP3 player. Finally the mirror in the lid of this Jewelry Valet Cell Phone charger can be used to assist in putting on earrings. Normally $59 this is now available for $9.97 plus you’ll get a lifetime of “do you remember the year you bought me that cell phone charger station for Valentine’s Day” at no extra charge…
USB Heart Necklace – 4GB of practical pink Valentines love
If you’re sweetheart isn’t open to a stripper pole for this Valentine’s Day, then how about this 4GB USB Heart Necklace? This is an authentic 4GB USB 2.0 compatible memory device. Data transfer rate of 6MB/Sec and compatible with Windows 2000/XP/Vista. Comes in a durable steel box sure to make a lasting impression on that special someone.
Your Valentine Will Flip Over This
If you’re dating a gadget guy or girl, getting them a gift for a special occasion such as Valentines Day, which ack! – is just around the corner (!!), can be a bit of a challenge.
That’s why I thought the newly designable Flip Minos were such a great idea. You can get them in either the HD version with 4GB ($229), or the slim version with 2GB ($179), and the best part is that there is no extra cost to use the Valentines Day related designs in Flip’s online gallery or to upload your own images and create something truly special.You can even buy a gift certificate if your creative juices have completely dried.
Valentines Day designs will be available soon at Cafe Press, and there are lots of styles to choose from.
White Castle Valentines Day reservation hotlines open now
Still stumped about where to take your valentine this year? You do remember that Valentines Day is February 14, right? White Castle is a regional hamburger restaurant well known for their mini burgers. They have a promotion each year on special occasions where they accept phone reservations for preferred seating (aka plastic tablecloth). Last year they took photos (viewable online) of happy couples dining on the special day (bring your own camera this year because the site say’s they’re no longer snapping pictures). Click here to see pictures from prior year.
Nothing say’s Fanboy like Nintendo Game Boy Advance cuff links
Just in time for Valentines Day gift giving are these black Game Boy Advance Cufflinks. These limited edition cufflinks feature a removable cartridge that is a replica of the Japanese version of Super Mario Bros. Shipped in a corrugated gift pack (aka box) for only $36. Sure to make your significant other the talk of the next family gathering.
Valentine toilet paper shows your love – “top to bottom”
Does your significant other plead with your for “practical gifts”? It won’t get much more practical than this for Valentines Day. Is there a more intimate gift than a roll of toilet paper printed with “I Love You From Top To Bottom?”. Gosh, I’m tearing up just typing that. If you prefer, the site also sells “His and Hers” toilet paper that rips down the middle or if you’re thinking of plopping the question how about “Will You Marry Me” toilet paper. Beware the rolls are a bit pricy at $14.95 plus shipping – but at least they’ll know how much they mean to you!
And finally, the ultimate…
