Valentine’s Day Guy Gifts For Budding Relationships…
If you two are just starting to date, you won’t want to go too extravagant or show too much thought just yet. Below are some safe ideas that won’t cost you a pretty penny.
American Express Valentine’s Day Gift Card: Not really sure what his interests are yet? If you’re really just starting to get to know a new guy, it may be a better idea to get him a gift card. That way, he can spend it on anything he likes. Plus, you can get one with the Valentine’s Day theme from American Express. Order here or take a look at the current American Express Gift Card Promotions here.
Blu-Ray of his favorite movie: I’d really only recommend this if you know he actually collects movies. Some guys only like watching movies once and don’t feel the need to collect. A few popular choices lately:
Inception
Man of Steel
Fast & Furious 6
Star Trek Into Darkness
Book from his favorite author: Obviously he better enjoying reading, or this will be a flop. Popular last year:
Inferno by Dan Brown
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Killing Jesus by Martin Dugard
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
Batch of chocolate chip cookies: Who doesn’t love homemade cookies! Don’t just pick up a pack of Nestle Toll House cookie dough on this one okay. A great place to start is this highly reviewed Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe here.
Valentine’s Day Guy Gifts For Steady Relationships…
Once the two of you have been dating for several months up to a year, you’ll want to show a little more appreciation on V-day.
Beer theme: If he’s a lover of craft beer, consider getting either a nice beer tasting serving set. Even better, look into Brooklyn Brew Shop’s Beer Making Kits and let him craft his own personal concoction. Very cool.
Leather wallet: This can be a tricky one ladies. Some guys are quite picky with the size, color, and how many pockets his wallet has. If he’s currently carrying 5 credit cards, an insurance card, driver’s license, grocery store card, and then cash, you’ll want to stay away from money clips. Wallets can be quite inexpensive, but he’ll have it everywhere he goes so it’ll be a constant reminder of you. Some popular ideas:
SHARKK Aluminum Wallet Credit Card Holder
Alpine Swiss Men’s Leather Wallets
Levi’s Men’s Wallets
Gorillapod: Does he enjoy taking photos together when you two are out and about or away on vacation? Get one of these flexible tripods that’ll let him set up some great shots wherever you two happen to be. Info here.

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Your Husband…
