A strange Valentine's Day gift made from… manure
Minnesota farmer Bruce Andersland couldn't think of anything more romantic than drawing a huge heart pierced by an arrow on the field, and drawing it… with cow dung. So Bruce decided to surprise his 37-year-old wife on Valentine's Day.
The heart was about a kilometer wide and was painted on a plot that belonged to the couple. The wife, of course, admitted that it was the most unusual Valentine's Day gift she had ever received.

Original Valentine's Day cards
If you believe that big gifts can fit in a small package, then you should use the World's Smallest Mail Service. This company sends out miniature greetings that are sure to surprise and make your other half smile.

Services for making and shipping miniature valentines cost $8-10 plus stamps
