5 Last Minute Valentine's Day Gift Ideas: Him and Her
Now that the roads are usable following the blizzard last weekend, it might be time to start thinking about the Valentine's Day gifts that need to get bought between now and Thursday.
Sure, the historic snow storm that teared through the region could be used as an excuse to why you didn't get a superb Valentine's Day gift for your significant other, but, it's a stretch, and why bother going through the hassel?
Head downtown this morning as soon as the stores open and net a perfect, one-of-a-kind gift for your Valentine.

4. LET THE SUN SHINE IN
Marblehead Opticians offers an extensive line of fashionable and functional sunglasses to frame every face. Surprise him with a gift that promises sunny days ahead!
5. THE WAY TO A MANS HEART…
Why cook? Select a complete gourmet dinner from Shubie’s or a selection of treats from Candy Pop Sweet Shoppe Light the candles and voila! Romance.
GIFTS FOR HER
1. AHHHHH!
Treat her to a luxurious day of beauty at Dayle’s European Skin Care & Day Spa. Choose from a variety of packages, including the Sweet Chocolate Stress Release.
2. BIG THINGS IN LITTLE PACKAGES
Bobbles & Lace offers affordable trinkets for every style. Choose a delicate necklace or some funky new earrings; she’ll be thrilled at the site of the little pink package!
3. CUDDLE UP
Why go out on a cold winter’s night? Instead surprise her with a romantic movie from Chet’s Video (we strongly recommend Truly, Madly, Deeply). Haul out the blankets, turn down the lights and settle in for a night of romantic movie magic.
4. PRETTY AS A PICTURE
Give her something as beautiful as she is. Consider a piece of original art from Brush Strokes Gallery. Choose something from the heart and hers will be delighted.
5. CAN’T FIND THE RIGHT WORDS?
Consider a book of love poems or a classic love story. The folks at Spirit of ’76 have a wide selection of literary gifts to tickle her funny bone or play on her heart strings.
Above all, remember: it's truly the thought that counts!
