The whole point of Valentine’s Day is to show your man/woman that you love them (which you should also be doing the other 364 days of the year, but hey, what do I know, I’m single.). Flowers and chocolates are nice, but they’re crappy gifts and we all know it. They don’t say, I love you, baby; they say “I walked in Walmart.” It’s not about the money or even the gift, it’s about the thought that goes into it. So, I’ve put some stuff together for both guys and girls to hopefully make your Valentine’s Day fun, fresh, cliche-free, and filled with lots of love and smooches.

Let’s start with the gifts for her (bc I’m a her and I like gifts):
