Shorty, you gotta get him a big bag of peanut m & m's .... and snickers of course! What a sweet idea! Your boyfriend will love it and you can share it too!
Woolworth's pick and mix usually goes down well.
I recieved a box of See's Candies chocolates last year, and they were by far the best chocolates I've ever tasted - they make Godiva taste like dirt! They're pricey, but worth it. Otherwise, I recommend seeing if any of your local malls have a Lindt chocolate shop - also wonderful!
You can get See's online and in some department stores nationwide. http://www.sees.com/
If youre really really serious about it, you might want to consider making your own candies out of fine ingredients - not nearly as hard as most people think (especially caramels and chocolates with nuts - have a few of your girlfriends over and make a fun afternoon of it! check out http://www.allrecipes.com/ ), and it truly shows you care!
I prefer Babe Ruth bars, Snickers bars, Hersheys w/ Almonds, Peanut M&M's, or Reeses Peanutbutter cups... any of them will "Trip my trigger!"
How about M & M's and Reese's peanut butter cups??
Why don't you try and order him something from Hotel Chocolate they do lots of different chocolates that are truely out of this world,. I really love this place http://www.hotelchocolat.co.uk/...
You could give him any chocolate shaped as love hearts. Or why don't you make him some chocolates you could make some truffles as they are very easy, and he might appreciate them more as they would really come from the heart and show that you really thought about his gift. Here's a recipe
Ingredients
Basic truffle mixture:
5 oz (150 g) very best quality dark chocolate (at least 75 per cent cocoa solids)
5 fl oz (150 ml) thick double cream
1 oz (25 g) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons rum or brandy
1 level tablespoon Greek yoghurt
For the plain truffles:
1 level dessertspoon cocoa powder
For the ginger truffles:
? oz (20 g) preserved ginger, very finely chopped, plus some extra cut into small pieces
For the toasted almond truffles:
1 oz (25 g) flaked almonds, very finely chopped and well toasted
For the chocolate-coated truffles:
2 oz (50 g) dark chocolate (at least 75 per cent cocoa solids)
? teaspoon groundnut oil
a little cocoa for dusting
You will also need some paper sweet cases and, for the chocolate-coated truffles, a sheet of silicone paper (baking parchment).
For the basic truffle mixture, break the chocolate into squares and place it in the bowl of a food processor. Switch on and grind the chocolate until it looks granular, like sugar. Now place the cream, butter and rum or brandy in a small saucepan and bring these to simmering point. Then, with the motor switched on, pour the mixture through the feeder tube of the processor and continue to blend until you have a smooth, blended mixture. Now add the yoghurt and blend again for a few seconds. Next transfer the mixture, which will be very liquid at this stage, into a bowl, allow it to get quite cold, then cover it with clingfilm and refrigerate overnight. Don't worry: it will thicken up after several hours.
Next day divide the mixture equally among four small bowls, and keep each one in the fridge until you need it. Then proceed with the following to make four different varieties. Make sure you have all the little paper cases opened out ready before your hands get all chocolatey!
Plain Truffles
For these, you simply sift 1 level dessertspoon of cocoa powder on to a flat plate, then take heaped half teaspoons of the first batch of truffle mixture and either dust each one straight away all over, which gives the truffle a rough, rock-like appearance, or dust your hands in cocoa and roll each piece into a ball and then roll it in the cocoa powder if you like a smoother look. Place it immediately into a paper case. Obviously the less handling the better as the warmth of your hands melts the chocolate.
Ginger truffles
Mix the finely chopped ginger into the second batch of truffle mixture using a fork, then proceed as above, taking small pieces, rolling or not (as you wish), and dusting with cocoa powder before transferring each one to a paper case.
Toasted almond truffles
Sprinkle the very finely chopped toasted almond flakes on a flat plate, take half a teaspoonful of the third batch of truffle mixture and roll it round in the nuts, pressing them to form an outer coating.
Chocolate-coated truffles
For these you need to set the chocolate and oil in a bowl over some hot but not boiling water and allow it to melt until it becomes liquid, then remove the pan from the heat. Now spread some silicone paper on a flat surface and, dusting your hands with cocoa, roll each truffle into a little ball. Using two flat skewers, one to spike the truffle and one to manoeuvre it, dip each truffle in the chocolate so that it gets a thin coating and then quickly transfer it to the paper. If the chocolate begins to thicken replace the pan on the heat so that it will liquefy again. Leave the coated truffles to set completely then, using a palette knife, quickly transfer them into their waiting paper cases.
Now arrange all the truffles in a box or boxes and cover. Keep them refrigerated and eat within three days. Alternatively, truffles are ideal for freezing.
If he likes chocolate and nuts, then PLEASE include some
'Ferrero Rocher'. They are foil wrapped with chocolate covered crispy outer shell. Inside is creamy milk chocolate with a whole hazelnut. This is my FAVORITE candy, and you can find them in most good candy sections. The link also has a 'store finder'.

Another favorite of mine is called Baci Perugina. They are an italian chocolate. This one also has a whole hazelnut and chopped hazelnuts inside with smooth chocolate, but is covered in a rich dark chocolate. Inside the foil, each one comes wrapped wrapped in a little 'love note', so these are very 'Valentine'.

Both candies are rather expensive, the 2nd being the dearest, but they are sooo worth it! :-)
I'm assuming you are in the US, but if not, I'm sure you can find either of these in your country, as well.

Get him Merci chocolates. I love them. They come in praline, caramel, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, coffee and creme, and others. Best of all, they don't come in those really crap flavours like rasperry filled, uhh! I hate those! They look elegant for Valentine's Day, but they still taste really good!!!!!!!!
