You didn’t forget Valentine’s Day, did you? If you are scooting home from work and suddenly get the message that it’s Valentine’s Day on your XM radio, it’s time to take some quick action to get the perfect Valentine’s Day present for her. You know she’s expecting it, and you had better deliver. The good news is that you can still stand and deliver to keep yourself out of trouble.
Just don’t count on heading straight home, but you don’t need to break your budget either. The important thing when you purchase a gift for a woman is to get something that conveys some thoughtful consideration, and it is not that important to spend a lot of money. At least, that shouldn’t be important.
Last-Minute Valentine’s Day Gifts for Her
Cheese and Fruit Baskets: You know, a box of chocolates is the traditional gift, but lots of ladies try to watch their carbs these days. Of course, if your lady is a choco-aholic, don’t hold back. But you can stop at the grocery store and and pick up a nice hunk of brie and a bag of applies. It should set you back less than $20, it’s tasteful, and it’s bound to please. While you’re at the store, grab a container to stash everything in, a cute card, and you’re set! If you feel like splurging, a decent bottle of wine is a great extra.
Amazon Gift Cards: What pleases women more than a chance to go shopping? The great thing about Amazon gift cards is that you can order them over your computer or mobile phone, and she can have it before you even get there. Send one to your mom too!
