Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and if you’re anything like me, you probably don’t have the slightest clue what to get him.
Whether you’ve been with your significant other for years or you just recently started dating, finding the perfect V-Day gift can often be difficult. Since it’s celebrated right after Christmas and Bini’s birthday, I often find myself all out of ideas struggling to find the ideal AFFORDABLE present that will express how much I love him while keeping within budget.
To prevent you from going through countless hours online or walking the mall frantically in search of that incredible gift, I’ve compiled a list of ideas from past V-days to recent finds that will suit your needs perfectly.
If you’re going for a more sentimental feel this V-day, how about creating a photo collage and framing it for your partner or a playlist with all your favorite love songs. Both gifts are inexpensive and will mean a great deal to your boo.

Nothing says I believe in your dreams more than gifting a man who loves the skies with his own flight lessons. A real chance to take on the world from above. The Washington International Flight Academy often has specials on Groupon where they will give one 30-minute discovery flight and 30 minutes of ground instruction for less than $145.00. If the deal is not available, their prices are still reasonable.
If he is looking to track his workouts, measure his calorie in-take vs. out-take, and check his heart rate, the Fitbit is the best way to go.I love how it does everything from tracking my sleep to notifying me when I need to get up and exercise. ($149.95)
