Sweet But Not Sweet
Chocolates are usually a can't-lose on V-day, but if you try to get cute and chocolate-shame your boo with this découpage bathroom scale, may you spend an eternity in hell being poked by Russell Stover, Ferrero, Rocher, and the M&M who always looks high. The worst part: This scale is currently sold out, which means a lot of people actually thought this was funny. Art de Toilette Bittersweet Scale, $95, available at Uncommon Goods.
