A dozen roses might mean romance, but the best gift is more time together—not necessarily more money, right? Here, a list of gifts under $50 that will help you have fun with your honey.
 |
Grow Your Own Marinara Kit ($29, Uncommon Goods) This nifty kit includes everything you need to grow tomatoes, basil, and oregano for a delicious pasta sauce. Plant 'em, nurture the little guys, and then reenact that scene from Lady & the Tramp. |
 |
Table Topics ($16.99, Orange & Pear) Table Topics are conversation-starters that encourage a deeper level of intimacy than you get sitting on the couch, watching The Office. |
 |
Winerd: The Wine Tasting Game ($35, Spoon Sisters) Compare your wine knowledge with Winerd—a game that encourages you to polish off a couple of bottles together and bandy around some oenophilia. Or just make up new varietals of kissing. |
 |
Scene It? 80s Deluxe Edition ($21.88, Amazon) Relive your neon-colored glory days with this interactive TV trivia game. Test your memory on everything from Pac-Man to Pop Rocks, then drag out old photo albums and laugh at his denim jacket and popped collar. |
 |
Custom Cards & Keepsakes by Erin Human ($7-$40, Etsy.com) Immortalize (or at least cute-ify) your love with one of Erin Human’s custom hand-drawn cards and keepsakes. Just email her a photo, and she’ll send you your own personal work of art. |
'Tis better to give. What are you getting your Valentine this year?
