Unconventional Valentine’s Gift Ideas
We love giving gifts during Valentine’s Day but sometimes roses, chocolates, jewelry, and dinners can get super expensive. Plus, these gifts are cliché. Don’t worry, we’ve got ideas that are friendlier on the wallet and more meaningful to the heart. (And you’re still not late!)
Charitable Donation in their Name
Spread love beyond your relationship by making a charitable donation in your partner's name to a cause that's close to their heart. It's a meaningful way to celebrate love while making a positive impact on the community.
Cooking Class Subscription
Invest in quality time together by gifting a subscription (free or paid) to a cooking class service. Not only will you learn new skills and create delicious meals together, but you'll also save money by dining in instead of splurging on expensive restaurant dinners.
DIY Home Spa Day
Create a relaxing spa experience at home with DIY bath bombs, homemade face masks, and scented candles. Add a personal touch by including coupons for foot massages or back rubs, ensuring a day of pampering and relaxation.
Digital Memory Book
Compile a digital memory book filled with photos, videos, and heartfelt messages commemorating your relationship's most cherished moments. It's a timeless gift that can be revisited and cherished for years to come.
Open a Savings Account or Club Account
If you are close to a child, consider opening a savings account for them and spreading the love of savings. It doesn’t need to be a lot of money and can be automatically deposited whenever you want. Or start a Club Account to save towards a dream vacation, and you both can plan and prepare. The action will be appreciated.
Love Notes
The pen or a voice is mightier than the sword. What better way to show someone you care about than just telling them. Send an email, call, message, visit, or write a note expressing your gratitude and love. It’s the simple things in life that matter. Heartfelt words can be more meaningful than any piece of jewelry.
