Valentine’s gift ideas for a serious boyfriend?

My boyfriend and I are both 18 years old. He’s 2 hours away from me right now in college and I’ll be staying with him the weekend of Valentine’s Day. We’ve been seriously dating for about 5 months, but when the semester is over we’re moving in together. I want to get him something special but I can’t think of anything creative, just the usual candy a card stuffed animal blah blah. Any creative ideas?

I looked over the Top 10 list Maggie posted, and my favorite is the digital photo frame. I got my fiance one for Christmas, and he really loves it. Plus, it’s something you can both enjoy when you move in together, so it’s almost like a housewarming present to yourselves 🙂 I got mine here digitalframehq.com and loaded it with all my favorite pictures of us and our dog before giving it to him. Hope this helps!
