Boxes of chocolates. Pillows. Even pepperoni pizzas. On Valentine's Day, you'll see anything and everything shaped like a heart. However, you can't start your cavalcade of hearts on Valentine's Day until you wake up. For many people, though, that's the hardest part of their day. Here at SkyMall Monday headquarters, we don't always attack the day. No matter how much you love the person next to you or the activities you have planned for this romantic holiday, the soft embrace of your bed can be even more enticing. So, how do you pry yourself out of bed and get started on the parade of hearts? Well, you let SkyMall wake you up. Or, more accurately, you let the Sonic Boom Sweetheart Clock - and its vibrating bed shaker - give you a heart attack.

Most alarms play an annoying sound or the radio. The Sonic Boom Sweetheart Clock bombards your ears with a 113db tone. That's louder than a motorcycle, power saw and a subway train. Surely, that would wake up even the sleepiest romantic. But, the Sonic Boom Sweetheart Clock ups the ante with a bed shaker. What's a bed shaker? Just a small disc that you place underneath your pillow to vibrate you awake. It's a perfectly natural way to start your day.

Think that a simple alarm clock will wake you up? Believe that a bed shaker is a misnomer when it's only shaking your pillow? Well, while you plan your Valentine's Day breakfast in bed, we'll be reading the product description:

With a vibrating bed shaker and an adjustable volume audio alarm tone, this alarm will ensure that you wake up when you want to.

The Sonic Boom Sweetheart Alarm with Vibrating Bed Shaker has been designed especially for ladies; with its multi-colored display and heart shape. Waking up in the morning will never be the same.

Sonic Boom Sweetheart Alarm with Vibrating Bed Shaker features:

Comes with the newest most powerful 12-volt bed shaker

Complete with a hi/low dimmer switch to sleep better at night

Extra loud pulsating audio alarm with a loud 113db adjustable tone & volume control

Battery backup to maintain the proper time in the event of a power outage

One 9-volt battery is required for battery backup (not included)

A switch allows user to select 12/24-hour time

Finally, an eardrum-shattering, pillow-shaking alarm clock that has been designed solely with the needs of women in mind. It's about time we disbanded the old boys' club of loud, vibrating clocks. If you're using the older, less powerful bed shakers, it's time to upgrade.

Also, 9-volt batteries still exist? Isn't that amazing?

So, start your Valentine's Day with loud noises and a shaking bed. After all, it's a day for showing off your love.
