Early Show Contributors • Section Front E-mail This Story Printable Version Valentine's Gifts: New Approaches NEW YORK, Feb. 8, 2005 Chic Valentine's Day Gifts (Photo: CBS/The Early Show) (Photo: CBS/The Early Show) (Photo: CBS/The Early Show) (CBS) The National Retail Federation's 2005 Valentine's Day Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey found that the average consumer will spend $97.27 on Valentine's Day. In all, 2005 Valentine's Day spending is expected to reach $13.19 billion. Greeting cards are the most popular Valentine's Day item, with two-thirds of consumers planning to buy at least one card for the holiday. That was followed by nearly half of all consumers intending to give candy or treat themselves to an evening out. More than half of men -- 57.8 percent say they'll buy flowers and almost one-in-five plans to purchase jewelry for Valentine's Day. But if you're still wondering what to get your special someone, The Early Show contributor Laurie Hibberd has a fresh spin on some traditional gifts, in Tuesday's "Trend Report." The descriptions are provided by the retailer or manufacturer. FLOWERS "I LOVE YOU" ROSE PLANTS: Perhaps this first gift is best for the strong silent types. Tthese "I Love You" roses are the perfect romantic way to tell your Valentine how you truly feel. There are three 4 3/4" square ceramic pots that spell out "I Love You" when joined together. Each pot has mini red roses-planted inside -- the traditional flower of love. The pots are chocolate colored on the outside, pink on the inside. Exclusively from redenvelope.com ; $65.00. CHOCOLATES & CANDY CHOCOLATE BODY PRODUCTS PHILISOPHY CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM 3-in-1: Sinfully rich, this emollient shampoo, conditioner, and body wash is "choc" full of skin and hair loving vitamins laced with a yummy, creamy chocolate scent. Available at sephora.com ; $16 CHOCOLATE & VANILLA MILK COW SOAPS: Luxurious "couture" soaps from Gianna Rose Atelier come in whimsical cow shapes that not only look scrumptious, but make you feel like you are pampering your insides as well as your outside.

Cocoa Therapy Body Butter deeply nourishes with pure cocoa and helps fortify the skin's youthful appearance with vitamins and minerals, $27.50. Available at Origins retail stores or online at origins.com . CHOCOLATE FLAVORED CIGARS: These are perfect for cigar lovers with a sweet tooth. Crafted in the Dominican Republic, they're hand-rolled with aged, premium long-filler and infused with a light hint of flavor. The cigars are smooth, mild and long lasting-perfect when one indulgence just isn't enough. Each box contains 10 cigars; choose chocolate or vanilla.

Anniversary Gift
60th Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas Dear Dr. Dave and Dr. Dee, My parents will be celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. My brother and I want to give them a big party with family, friends, neighbors, and church members, but they don't want one. Should we honor their request, or give them a "surprise"? Also, what would be a good gift? My brother and I want to give a joint gift from both our families. My husband and I can afford to send them on a two-week cruise, but my brother cannot contribute that much. My brother wants us to pay equally. What should we do? Signed, Compromise? Dear Compromise, The 60th wedding anniversary is very special indeed. However, you should honor your parents' request to not have a party, and honor your brother's request to share in a gift for them equally. Instead, have a family celebration or dinner with just the immediate families. Although the 60th wedding anniversary is diamonds, you do not have to get them a gift of diamonds. Any gift for a special birthday is also appropriate for wedding anniversaries. One of the most often cited cherished gifts is a memory photo album composed of photos and special remembrances of their marriage. For example, the photo album could have crystal rhinestones glued on the front to simulate diamonds, and contain something like the following: 1. Photographs of the highlights of their 70 years together. Enlist the help of other family and friends to get copies of photos. Include their wedding photo, photos of children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, friends, vacations, and other special moments over the 70 years. 2. Written tributes: Close family members and friends write a short tribute to your parents and include a funny or touching anecdote. Intersperse these tributes throughout the album. For friends, ask them to include information such as how long they've known one or both of your parents, how they met, and their first impression. 3. You can request a special congratulatory note be sent to your parents from the President of the United States (if a U.S. citizen). Be sure and request this well in advance (at least 6 weeks). See www.whitehouse.gov 4. Historic news headlines, popular songs, and movies on the day of their wedding. Greeting card shops often have these "time capsule" sheets that can be printed out. Or, you can design your own using info from the Internet or from websites. Some helpful websites are: http://www.dmarie.com/timecap/ http://www.nytimes.com/learning/general/onthisday/index.html http://www.infoplease.com/cgi-bin/dayinhistory In addition to the album, or if you've already given them something similar recently, then other suggestions for a gift are a weekend trip to a special place they've always wanted to visit, a nice dinner to their special restaurant, or gift basket full of their favorite items and special items that they feel is too extravagant to buy. Depending on your parents' interests and limitations, other gift ideas could be an amplified, large button telephone or a computer so that they could email all family members.
