For the uncreative gifters and procrastinators this Valentine’s Day, The Orb staff members compiled a collection of present ideas for girls and guys alike, whether they have been together for three years or three days.
Each gift’s components may vary, but the basics include:
- Popcorn
Whether it be extra butter or kettle, this staple of the movie-watching experience is a must-have.
Price: $3.50 for a box of eight
- DVDs
For a trip down the pre-Netflix memory lane, visit a local Target, Fry’s or Walmart for rom-coms, dramas and other cheesy romance stories. Pictured here, Charlie St. Cloud and The Notebook.
Price: Between $15 and $20
- Candy
Anything from chocolate to sour gummy worms will provide a sugary side to the popcorn. Candies with a Valentine’s Day vibe include, as pictured, Dove Milk Chocolate Hearts.
Price: Between $3 and $5
Coupon Book
For the most basic, the only supplies required are a stapler, marker, paper and scissors. These coupons can be for anything; The Orb staff members provide suggestions:
Day of no arguing.
Dinner at a restaurant of choice.
Price: Self-made
Things…
To shower a loved one with compliments, fill a Mason jar with slips of paper, each with an appreciated trait written on it. Add a red or pink ribbon for a Valentine’s Day look.
Price for Mason jar: Between $4 and $5
Price for ribbon: $4
Lokai Bracelet
No other piece of jewelry has mud from the lowest point on Earth—the bottom of the Dead Sea—and water from the highest point on earth, Mount Everest. This bracelet reminds its wearer to stay humble in times of triumph and to stay hopeful in times of difficulty. An added bonus is that Lokai donates 10 percent of its profits to charitable organizations. Found online.
Price: $18
