We have found ten of the best Valentine’s Day gifts to give if you’re on a budget (and who isn’t these days?).

1) Create an indoor picnic with available props, i.e., picnic tablecloth, paper goods. Share finger foods and favorite treats along with a glass of wine. Spice up “dessert.” Enjoy your picnic on the living room floor or in bed. Play card games,board games, or make up your own.

2) Decorate a unique-looking jar or box with craft items. Write numerous love notes on small pieces of paper and fill the jar with them. Present the jar to your sweetheart.

3) Make a framed group of photos that put your relationship in chronological order of events, by months or years (depending on how long you’ve been together).

4) Create a favorite drink together. Try all kinds of ingredients. Enjoy taste-testing. Be sure to record the ingredients, so you can make the “your” drink again on Valentine’s Day year after year.

5) Create an at-home spa day for your mate. Deliver the gift in a basket filled with inexpensive candles, bubble bath, rose petals, facial mask and scrub. Then give your mate time to enjoy it. When he/she is done, heat up towels in the dryer for drying off.

6) Watch an old movie at home together, with popcorn and soft drinks and candy--movie-theater style.

7) When you make that special dinner…Just like when you go to a fancy event and a “dinner menu” is put on each plate describing each food item, do something similar. For example, on your menu, write “Spaghetti & Meatballs, made with passion to be with YOU.” Don’t forget to give your “event” or “restaurant” a name at the top of the menu. For couples with children, get them involved in an all-family fun Valentine’s Day dinner at home. Mom can prepare a dessert for two (Chocolate covered strawberries, perhaps) and light the candles while dad puts the kids to bed.

Plan a scavenger hunt. Write clues and place them in envelopes, and place the envelopes around town. Make the final clue a doozey of a destination.

9) What did you do on your very first date? Repeat it.

10) Write new “updated” wedding vows, both serious and humorous, and share them with each other over a glass of wine in a candlelit room.

Ok na! @all @all na im bad pass. Gals una de hear? U dnt really need LV or Prada.

What da Bleep is Valentine and all the hypes about it. I have never for once bothered myself over things like that.

I simply get special gifts for loved ones whenever i can afford and not on a special date.
Why do we live like people we dont know, every individual is unique and must find his or her own way of handling things. Stop copying things that do not suit your personality.
