It can be difficult to buy that perfectly romantic gift for your loved no matter how long you have been together, so we thought we’d do some of the hard work for you and take a look at what is popular this year as well as look at some of the more quirky gifts out there.
Ladies First…
Flowers
This might seem a little clichéd, but flowers are always a real treat. Why not take it one step further, though, and buy a subscription to a flower delivery service like a subscription from Bloom and Wild? You get to choose the length of the subscription and how often the flowers get delivered and what’s more you can cancel at any time.
Spa Day
Every lady loves to be pampered so why not treat her to a luxury spa day at one of the great Spa experiences that can be found all across the country. To give you a helping hand, the Guardian has a list of 30 of the best Spas in the country. We are sure you will find a local one for the lovely lady in your life.
Experiences
There are several companies from which you can buy experiences such as Red Letter Days or Virgin Experience Days but with the huge selection available how can you be sure you’re getting her what she wants? John Lewis has the answer with the Smartbox Treat her Gift Experience. With over 2955 experiences across the country for her to choose from, you can’t go wrong.
Personalised
If you really want to impress your lady love, then why not opt for a personalised gift unique to her? Getting Personal has a great range of gifts which can be personalised specifically for that special person in your life. We particularly liked the Midas Bouquet which has real roses which can last for up to a year!
Quirky
Does your loved one have a sense of humour and doesn’t take things too seriously? If so then you could look at getting her something a little out of the ordinary – Prezzy Box has some unusual Valentine’s gifts which are sure to bring a smile to her face. Beguile her with a personalised love potion or give her the gift of memories with this original newspaper and flutes gift set.
And For Him…
Boozy
Does your significant other like a snifter of Whisky on occasion? If so he’ll be delighted with this personalised 18 year old single malt Whisky from the Whisky exchange. This limited-edition whisky can be tailored lovingly for your partner.
Techy
If he is a tech fanatic but you are on a budget then you can treat him to the Oculus Go VR headset without breaking the bank. This is a standalone system so no need to connect to a PC or expensive gaming system and it has access to lots of games and TV stations.
Practical
With the increase in tech and the move away from briefcases he’ll be glad of a stylish over the shoulder bag to carry around his essentials. This messenger/organiser bag has all the features he will need and is the perfect day to day bag for him.
Experiences
For something a little out of the norm as far as experiences go, you could send him on a mission to help end the Zombie apocalypse in this great 3 hour experience from Virgin. What man could resist the opportunity to take down some Zombies and save the world? Whilst you might think it is romantic, we bet he will be “dead” impressed!
Quirky
As for the ladies, there are plenty of great but amusing gifts for that special man in your life so if he doesn’t take life too seriously and doesn’t get easily offended then there are a host of gifts for him here on Find me a Gift. There are some real gems!
Valentine’s day gifts can be a real challenge but thankfully there is a lot of choice around. Hopefully some of the gifts we have highlighted will have helped you choose something suitable but if not why not give the gift of labour – think about the household task your partner least likes to do – like loading or unloading the dishwasher or emptying the bins and give them a month’s pass. In fact, you could create your own gift book of favours, hand write in a purpose bought notebook each gift and present to them on Valentine’s day.
