Theme: “Dinner and a Movie”
Gift Ideas:
Here are some of the gifts for her you could include in this theme. You don’t have to get everything, just 2 or three gifts will make it look like you have a plan.

Presentation:
Don’t have this stuff arrive one at a time at the house. Half of the success of your gifts to her, come from how you present them. In this case, have it shipped to your office, and take it home as a bundle.
Good luck! We promise to give you more gift theme ideas in the future.

Picking the best gift for your wife or girlfriend is great, but don’t forget to get her a card too! On many web sites, you can personalize the gift card that comes with the gift, but nothing beats an old fashioned greeting card with your written words in it.
Take a few minutes, stop by the corner drugstore, and buy her a card to give with the gift. If you have time, you can even order those online here at Hallmark.com. They have an especially good collection of birthday cards. You can even have them personalize and mail the card for you. I have mixed feelings about that, because it doesn't take any effort, and seems a bit impersonal. But, we'll allow it every once in a while!
I’m not supposed to know, but my husband will buy 5 cards at a time, and save them in his drawer for when he needs them. You can do that too – just don’t tell her about it.
