Alright, we know how it goes. You had the intention of being ahead of the game and getting your S.O. something amazing. But then you realized you are no longer living that bachelor life, and Valentine’s Day was right around the corner and you don’t even have a card. Yeah, we have all been there. Time sometimes slips away from us, and we even forget about major life needs. Don’t worry! Thankfully because most people have been in your shoes before, there are a lot of ideas out there that will help you in your current predicament. Plus, all the options we are about to bless you with won’t show signs of it being last minute! Ok, let’s get to it, we don’t have much time!
1. Flowers
Normally flower delivery requires an order to be placed well in advance. And if you miss the boat, you have to resort to grocery store flowers. Well, don’t fret. FTD’s same day Valentine’s delivery has you covered. Their jaw dropping bouquets will be a big hit with your beau. No matter their flower preference, you’ll find something they’ll love.
2. Meaningful card
If you don’t even have time to get to the store to buy a card, sit yourself down with a pen and paper, and write out your feelings for your person. Tell them how much you love them, what sparked your interest in them, your favorite things about them, etc. Trust us when we say this is one they will LOVE. It will provide them the reassurance of how much you love them, and make them feel extra special.
3. Massage
This one requires practically zero planning and no additional purchases, just your hands and some lotion if you have that on hand. Have your person relax while you get to work working out those knots they accumulated over the course of the Holiday season. This will provide you both with an intimate moment and you will really be able to enjoy each other. After all, having some one-on-one time is what Valentine’s Day is really about!
4. Favorite take-out, on you
Listen, you have to eat dinner anyway, so why not take care of the dinner for the both of you. One of the good things to come out of the turmoil of 2020 is that food delivery apps have really been pushed to the forefront. They have expanded and made food delivery easier than ever before! With websites like Door Dash, you can order the food and have it delivered to you while you work on writing that card, or decorating your place. It will be delivered hot and ready to be enjoyed for the evening!
5. Gift card
We know this one sounds like it is impersonal, but it can really be a homerun if done correctly. If you make sure to get a gift card for a place that your S.O. really loves, it is a guaranteed win! If your lady is into make-up, or beauty products, get her a gift card for the local salon, or get an e-gift card for her to do some online shopping. If your guy likes to spend his free time playing video games, get him an Xbox or PlayStation gift card. That way he can buy digital games, or put money toward his already existing games.
6. A raincheck
Yes, by the title of this one it sounds awful and so thoughtless. BUT, getting your person a raincheck for something to be done together in the future will be a good one! Since the world is in a different state at the moment, it is hard to really buy someone an experience. But by getting them a raincheck for an experience, they will have something to look forward to, something to plan, and it gives them a great gift.
Ok, now get it done! We hope you have a happy Valentine’s Day!
