Any gift that shows you've put some extra thought into it is worth extra points. How much are you looking to spend? Since this is for Valentine's Day maybe incorporate something that the two of you can do together, like tickets to a concert, or a weekend of skiing somewhere, or a trip to a mystery destination. It really depends on what the lady is like and what her interests are. The key is to find something she really likes. Also, homemade cards are a lot cooler than storebought ones. Construction paper works wonders. You can trace out red and pink hearts of different sizes and cut them out and glue them on a card and it makes a really neat effect.
Not really sure how much I'll spend. I usually don't pay attention to that for stuff like this. If I could cut or color straight, I would. Maybe I should pay my sister to make the card? Trips are out, since she has school during the week and work on the weekends. I did disney on ice and other crap for xmas. And she doesn't like concerts, for some reason. Bleh, I hate shopping for her, I always can't figure out anything till the last minute. Why couldn't she just want more jewelry like every other girl I've dated? I'll at least do flowers, but I always do flowers with other stuff. Any ideas of something shippable to her apt? She shares it with a bunch of girls and I figure this way she actually gets the stuff on v-day.
I hate this fucking holiday.
Edit: Oh, and yes, I am willing to throw money at the problem to make it go away. If a gift costs me more than the other crap I could do, but it gets the job done, oh well.
