This is what I decided on....

$350 :(

$20- a dozen of helium balloons (to fill the trunk of my car, with the above gift.. then have her open it)

$20- ice skating for two

$40- dining for two at a semi fancy restaurant

_________
$430.... grand total...

for our 2 yr anniv.

[edit]
more detailed update for those of you with creative suggestions
1. thinking I'm spending too much?
hells yea,:( however our 2 year anniversary is a day apart from her bday, so this will work as a combo gift! :D

2. for those who said to get roses delievered in public:

been there done that. remember we've been together for 2 years, I got roses wayyy too many times.

3. why don't you spend ~$100 on a fancy dinner instead?
been there done that. I spent $160 @ baytower for our 1 year anniv. We'd rather spend less @ chinatown and stuff our faces til we can't eat! (she LOVES to eat)

4. ditch iceskating
no this holds a strong sentimental value, our 1st official date was at boston common, ice skating.

I want one too!

Have you been dating for awhile? Live together? Then I would say, sure, spend the cash.

At least no one can call you cheap.

LOLyourFace, is your gf somewhat of a techie? will she really need the 4MP camera? or do you think she'll like it because it's just "cute"? if that's the case, why not save a bit of money and get this: Sony 2MP tiny cameras

i'm sure it'll have the same wow factor and it'll save you some cash ;)

I would believe that if he were happy about this, but his message is populated with :( faces, which indicates to me that he's not all that happy about this. If he feels he's doing this because he feels obligated to, rather than because he really wants to, then it's a bad sign..
