February 10 & 11: Cheap Valentine's Day Ideas

Sometimes the best gifts are the ones that don't cost much but have thought and meaning into them!

• Purchase some clear red balloons. Before blowing them up, place either wrapped candies, small gifts, and/or love poems inside each one, and then give them to your loved one as a bouquet.
• Make a meal only out of heart-shaped items
• Decorate a unique-looking jar or box with craft items. Write numerous love notes
  on small pieces of paper and fill the jar with them. Present the jar to your
  sweetheart.
• Write a “Top 10 Reasons Why I Love You” list.
• Plan a scavenger hunt. Write clues and place them in envelopes, and place the
  envelopes around town.
• Write new “updated” wedding vows, and share them.
• Create a *Wish* jar full of little strips of paper and give it to your sweetie with instructions to write their wishes of things that they'd like you to do on the strips of paper. These wishes can be as simple as doing the dishes, or as romantic as a candle lit dinner at their favorite restaurant. Each week or month (depending on how many strips you put in the jar), take one out and grant your loved one their wish!
