February the 14th – cupid can only do so much!
Though we say that everyday should be filled with just as enough love and sparkle as Valentine’s Day, it is still a sweet gesture to remind yourself and your significant other of the love you share for each other.
Now, it is a smart money-move to set a budget of how much you are willing – or able – to fork out for the V-Day gift. Bearing in mind, how much you spend does not equate to the quality or quantity of your love.
With the list of gift suggestions below, feel free to pick one (or two!) at your comfortable price point.
Love at first stage
Personalised presents (RM55 – RM100)
Personalising a gift for that special someone in your life doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. With today’s technology, you personalise pretty much anything – t-shirts, satchels, tiffin carriers, mini pouches and even mugs with your preferred corny love message For example,famsymall.com lets you shout out your love from everything from mugs to water bottles . If you are a little bit more adventurous, you can even customise a cute couple photo onto small pillows for display (or to hug).
The best part about these customised gifts is that they can be used on a daily basis. Therefore, these make for perfect gifts for the practical types.
