With hearts and flowers at the top of everyone's minds for Valentine's Day, sometimes the manly man gifts are overlooked. Not that guys don't like chocolate and candles, but sometimes a guy just needs a little more...bacon.

Mancrates.com is something I stumbled upon, and it truly is the most fun I've had shopping for a gift in a long time. The basic premise is to get a cool custom gift for your guy, and have it shipped in a crate so that they can bust it open. Awesome.

They pride themselves on providing the most up to date gadgets, gear, video games, and snacks, and each crate is packed with goodness, not just for Valentine's Day, but for any special occasion. And even if you didn't want to purchase one of these awesome selections, you can still take away some ideas for that special guy in your life. These all seem really unique and fun, so I'm sure most fellas would love to open these up on February 14th.
