Hot off the presses and being delivered up and down the street this morning (14 Feb).

Full marks for initiative I suppose, but I can’t really see the link to St Valentine’s day.

Would _you_ want to have hot Valentine’s Day sex on a dirty floor? :dubious: 😉

I could see the services of a cleaning company being part of a great Valentine’s Day gift.

Getting someone to do your SO’s chores frees up time for romantic, relaxed fun things.

Only minutes ago I was IMing with a friend who had gotten his wife exactly this, as well as a Jane Eyre DVD (due out on Feb. 20)

I thought it was a good gift!

Not for everyone, but one of those things that shows you are thinking of them (she’s in a stay at home with baby period right now). In other words, don’t give it to someone who would take it as a criticism!!

Not to mention erotic housecleaning services, for straights and gays. Take a buff, carefree individual, add a sexy maid or servant/slave costume, watch him or her do a little cleaning, just enough to work up a sweat, necessitating the removal of some or all of said costume…
