If the prospect of buying a Valentine’s gift for a new(ish) person in your life brings you out in a cold sweat, you’re not alone.
First, there’s the fear that a grand gesture may scare them off. Then, the worry they may not get you anything in return, which would be awkward. And, let’s be honest, if it’s early days you don’t want to spend loads incase the relationship turns sour in a few weeks.
The solution? Plan a nice evening, such as a homemade dinner or trip to a comedy club – as long as it won’t involved being crammed into a restaurant with lots of other couples. And as for gifts delivery online, keep it light, bright and inexpensive. Here are nine great ideas we’d love to receive on a friend Valentine’s Day.
The Piper bouquet, Bloom & Wild, £30
Yes we realise it might sound cliché, but we’re all about the flowers – and not any old petrol station blooms either. This beautiful bouquet called ‘The Piper’ is a best-seller at Bloom & Wild, so there’s a high chance your other half will love it. The flowers are also great for long distance relationships, as they fit straight through the letterbox.
‘You Repulse Me The Least’ chocolate, Firebox, £7.99
They’ll expect a tin of Roses, what they won’t expect is a chocolate bar with a message that basically screams playing it cool. If feelings aren’t your strong point, this one’s for you.
Awesome People Club mug, Oliver Bonas, was £12, now £9.50
Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a mug. Well, actually, this one does quite a good job of telling your beau how bloody marvellous they are. And every time they slurp their tea they can think of you.
Set of two Prosecco/Champagne glasses, Debenhams, £14.95
For the folks who plan on glugging a tonne of Prosecco on Valentine’s Day, this Champagne flute set is the perfect gifts delivery in India for your other half to keep in their kitchen so you can toast to some more big milestones in the future. Plus, glasses are just really handy to have around.
Show Them They’re Treasured
Treasure hunt set, Martha Brook, £16
We’re entering cheesy territory here but if you can’t be a big old cheese ball on Valentines Day, when can you? This treasure hunt is readymade so all you need to do is hide the envelopes around the house, and then fill out the card which is the last destination. You could also leave a gift online India or other surprise of your choosing at the end, if you so wish.
