Unique Valentine's Day Gifts Under $20

Valentine's Day approaches and everyone knows the typical gifts are chocolates and flowers. And don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE chocolate and flowers are pretty, but sometimes it's more exciting to go outside of the norm. After all, flowers die. And you can get the chocolate for 50% off a day later. 

So why not go for something different? 

I have a bunch of options and even better, they're all under $20 because life is expensive and you don't need to spend a bunch to show you care. 

So let's begin! 


If your partner loves to read, how about getting them a book? Even better, a classic book. You can find these for under $20 in many antique stores or eBay. Obviously the first editions are going to be over $20, but you can find a fabulous variety for a great deal:



Games are always an exciting gift. Pick up a game and then play that evening. Business Walrus game looks like a ton of fun that will be sure to get people laughing. Find it on Amazon here:




Five Below always has a fantastic choice of presents for under $10. This plant holder was incredibly cute. You can pick it up and stick candy inside. It'll still be a slightly typical gift with a cool twist:



At the dollar spot in Target, you can pick up these keychains for a buck. If you're a part of a couple who wants to give your partner a key to your place, this would be a cute way to do it. Or just get a fake key and say something like, "You have the key to my heart." Cheesy but sweet.




Prefer to stick to food items? Panera Bread has these cute Valentine's cookies. You can buy a half dozen of them. They're delicious--I've eaten many of them. 



If you're in Texas and have a HEB nearby, they are selling these cups that sort of resemble those overpriced Stanley cups. It was only $12. I personally would prefer it without the Texas state on it, only because I'm somewhat bitter about where I live since they've taken so many rights from women. Some of the laws here are just gross. But if you're a Texas fanatic, this would be a nice choice:




Littlest Pet Shop is back! I had no idea until my daughter told me. She used to collect them when she was younger. You can get these blind boxes for like $4. We found ours at Target. However, if you want to really go out, you can buy all of them on Amazon, but obviously it's way above $20. I also found one that came with 3 for only $11 here



This peacock clip is under $10 and is super cute. My daughter got it for Christmas and gets compliments when she wears it. Great colors and works well. It's on Amazon here:



Finally, if you need a cute pair of sunglasses to compliment your Valentine's Day look, pick up these heart ones! My daughter owns these in many colors. Even better, they're under $5! You can get the heart sunglasses in a variety of colors here:



All I want for Valentine's Day is not to cook. I am pretty simple. We'll probably get take out to avoid the crowds. 

Do you have any Valentine's Day plans?
