Gift Tips

If you still haven't gotten your 'significant other' a gift for Valentine's Day, you are cutting it fine (and quite frankly, what have you been doing?!)

Don't make the mistake of picking up some Favourites Chocolates or flowers from your local Caltex - here are some gift ideas to get you on your way (and keep you out of the dog box)…

  • It's a bit late now for breakfast in bed - but how about a dinner by candlelight in your own home?  Make up some menus, and get your Master Chef on.
  • The obvious choice is roses, but unless you are going to "borrow" some out of your neighbours garden, be prepared to take out a small mortgage to pay for them.
  • Treat your loved one to a night in a nice hotel …. Wotif.com still has a couple of sizzling deals for tonight, but they are going FAST!
  • Gold Class- the quintessential date night; dinner and a movie…in comfort…with a waiter!
  • Treat her to a spa day.  We recommend East Day Spa (check out the Ultimate Valentine's Day Package!)
  • Tonight is an awesome night to be visiting Auckland City - the Lantern Festival is in full swing; head to Albert Park to join the masses, or wander down to Queens Wharf for a more subdued experience.

Whatever your last minute gift might be, the most important thing is sincerity.  Show your Valentine that you are happy they are in your life.
