Perfect last min. V-day present (BRAND NEW AND STILL IN BOX) – $30<\/h2>\n
\n

Vermont Teddy Bear. BRAND NEW AND STILL IN BOX!! Its a cream colored bear with bow tie w a heart in the middle that says “Ti Amo” (that is I love You in French just in case you didnt know) If you were to buy one off the net it would cost more than $50. So if you are still needing a Valentines Day present I have you covered, SHE WILL LOVE IT!!!! You can reach me at xxx-xxx-xxxx or by email.<\/p>\n

\nThat must be how you say I love you in French Prudential<\/em>, since (as we’ve recently learned), French Prudential furniture is made by a guy named Al Italian<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sorry this is a little late to help those of you who were struggling to find gifts. I tried to help you<\/a>, I really did. I’m sure that a “French”-speaking bear with severed hands would have been exactly the thing you needed.<\/p>\n

Edited to add:<\/strong> Some sleuthing by Courtney reveals that the suck-o-meter goes up to 11 on this one. Apparently the tag doesn’t even say “Ti amo” — it says “\u00a1Te amo!” … which, of course, isn’t French either — it’s “I love you” in Spanish<\/em>. So somewhere between looking at the bear (presumably sitting in front of her) and typing it in, the poster got the actual words AND the language wrong. <\/p>\n
