It’s the thought that counts…

5 January 2010

With the ‘credit crunch’ not far from everyone’s mind, now is a good time to look for those gifts for valentine’s day that will melt your valentine’s heart, but not break the bank! As someone who isn’t a big fan of the day I’m happy to receive nothing, but I know a lot of people choose 14th February to declare how much they love their partner. It needn’t break the bank though.

Cards are lovely, but what do you do with them afterwards? They, hopefully, are recycled, but still thrown away. A card needn’t cost the earth, nor do you necessarily need to send one. Why not have a go at writing a poem or a note or for the very adventurous and artistic, design your own card!

There’s also this carve your own card from £2.30.

This personalised poem means that you don’t actually have to come up with the poem; you just supply the writer with the details and they’ll do the hard work! Simple and just £29.99.

Alternatively, take a look here for the traditional shop made cards!

Presents needn’t cost a fortune. A platinum diamond ring (just how many hints do I have to make?!) is fabulous and would certainly find a way to her heart, but for those with a slightly smaller budget there are cheaper alternatives! There’s this diamonds are a girls best friend key ring for just £6.95.

A silver love heart sweet with the words ‘I Love You’ is available in sterling silver from £15.95.

This secret arrow is available from £11.73. Write your message and insert it into the arrow and post to your valentine.

Or send them a message in a bottle from a round £20.

Alternatively, record your message in this Talking Ted for just £19.95.

This teddy doesn’t talk, but you can personalise him by having the message of your choice printed on his t-shirt.

Another gift guaranteed not to have you bankrupt is this heaven scent love massager from just £8.80. All you need to do is offer to massage your valentine!

Why not cook a romantic breakfast with this sweetheart frying pan? Cook a heart shaped egg for just £3.99! Then make some toast with the message I love you on it with this mood toast from £2.44.

How about cooking up a few cookies with this I love you cookie cutter for only £5.95?

If there’s someone you need to get the message to and they’re not too far away try this love message disc shooter for just £3.99. Fire messages to them with this cute little gadget! Just make sure you have a fairly good aim or things could get a little complicated!

Everyone loves to receive flower, especially a red rose. Well, look at this eternal red rose for only £3.99. It’s a naturally preserved rose that will last for years! If you want real roses then look here where you can get a single red rose from about £15 and a bunch for about £30. If money is no object I have to show you this bunch of 100 red roses for a mere £499! Definitely not for the credit crunch!

You can send a single balloon from just under £10 or go for a bunch of balloons from about £20. Look here for a selection of balloons to send to your loved one.

This I love you gift set will leave your valentine in no doubt that you love them. Full of little treats it’s from around £12.90.
