Top 10 on the Honey-Do List

Do It on Valentine's Day

What are you planning on giving your honey? Chocolate? Jewelry? A heartfelt card?

Guess again. We asked your honey, and your honey told us: What they want more than anything is for you to finally fix that leaky pipe in the basement they've been begging you to look at.

Trust us on this one: Scrap the plans for the romantic Bowling Night Out for Two, stay home, and do some much-needed plumbing, or carpentry, or electrical work. Present your darlin' with a This Old House Honey-Do Coupon, strap on your tool belt, and show some love. You'll score the serious points you've been angling for.
