This year, I decided to instead of buy my parents gifts for V-day. I am going to buy them dinner since they work at a retail store they see Valentine's day stuff all day so I want to do it a little different...

I was thinking about buying them dinner on Sunday since Monday is Valentines Day and they could be working until 7 that night. I don't know. Do you think it would be okay doing it an hour early?


I don't know if I should get them BBQ from a local restaurant around here or order in a pizza. Which one would you suggest?
I can't cook lol so I have to buy it from somewhere hehe. I was going to get them a steak from our local steakhouse, but it was like 16 dollars for each lil steak and I can't afford that.

I am going to get them a milkshakes or ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins for their desserts as well.

Does this sound okay, or does it sound tacky? I mean they been working around Valentines Day gifts all of Febuary and I bet they are sick of looking at it lol! and We have to eat supper anyway so why not I buy it!

Mississippi BBQ sounds wonderful! Does it come with Southern Style corn bread as well? Any room at the table for an extra person ;) :p

Something else to consider is maybe getting them a gift certificate to a restraunt so they can go out when they want to. That is what I do for my parents.
