The most romantic day of the year is knocking on the door and even if it’s not your favourite occasion, you should buy a present for your partner. Both men and women get confused about the gifts and often wait till the last minute to buy something nice. And many of us are so desperate to find the perfect gift that we often buy something completely ordinary and unexceptional like flowers or a teddy bear. The pressure is already on, so before flipping out, see our last-minute gift ideas for Valentine’s Day and have a nice, less stressful experience this year.
SpaFinder E-Card
Get an electronic gift card at SpaFinder.com for your partner – you can either surprise them with a pampering experience just for them, or get a special treatment for two at a local spa center. The website will also allow you to book a spa vacation almost anywhere in the world, so you can have the best romantic escape for the weekend.
Romantic Movie Night
Rent “When Harry Met Sally” or some film, equally romantic and funny. In fact, comedies are also very suitable on Valentine’s Day – is there a better way to spend a quality time with the person you love than pure laughter? A nice, romantic comedy will turn the evening into a really pleasing, entertaining and memorable time for you both.
Picnic
A romantic dinner in a fancy restaurant will be lovely, but since today you remembered that Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, you have no chance of finding available package. Instead of eating out at a fast food restaurant, make your own romance with a picnic at the most beautiful spot in the city. In case the weather won’t allow an outdoor fun, just place a blanket on the floor at home and get some of your favourite gourmet food. A picnic on a rented boat or RV is also a great alternative.
Traditional Gifts
Flowers, chocolates, plush toys and little gifts can be found practically everywhere around Valentine’s Day. You don’t have to search for a specialized store to find a heart-shaped, red-satin box of candy, a game of Twister (which is so much fun especially for adults), an elegant potted orchid, or some massage oils and body chocolate. You can buy them on the way from work or buy them online from Amazon a day or two before Valentine’s Day. A book of love poetry by a classic or contemporary poet is also good option and basically, any heart-shaped item will do the trick.
E-Gift Cards
Electronic gift certificates or e-gift cards as they are more popular are a great last-minute option for every holiday. Today many retailers sell e-gift cards, which can be either sent by email or even at Facebook mailbox. You can also choose the denomination – usually from $10 to $1000 or even more. SpaFinder is really wonderful for Valentine’s Day, but there are many other alternatives – Amazon
Even if you bought the gift in the last minute, your thoughtfulness will be appreciated. In fact, most men are late shoppers and the fact that they remembered to buy something is often enough for their wives and girlfriends. Just remember to add a Valentine’s Day card with some cute romantic message written on it.
