    Gym Membership

    Not Cool!

    As much as you'd like for your significant other to be in better shape, this one is definitely a no go! Ya see, everyone wants a gym membership but no one wants to be coerced into joining. This lousy gift idea will make your special someone feel like you don't accept and love them for the way they are. Avoid it!

    A Mastercard or Visa Gift Card

    It's not personalized!

    At first, this may seem like an excellent idea especially if your sweetie likes to shop. However, the gift card with a dollar amount attached to it is never a good Valentine's gift.  You may have spent $100 on your honey but this present shows that you put very little time and effort into making your significant other feel special and loved. It will also appear that you know very little about their personal life.  Try personalizing their gift instead. For example, If your lady or man likes salty snacks, even a popcorn popper would prevail over the gift card.

    Whatever Walmart Has

    Tacky!

    I probably shouldn't even venture down this road but the sad fact is, we're probably all guilty of doing this as some point in time.  I mean, let's face it, Walmart has tons of stuff! The problem with shopping at Walmart however is that it sends a message. It screams "last minute rush" and it also yells "cheap!" An airbrushed tank top that reads: "I think your hot" or a chintzy, checkout lane, fake plush teddy bear are not good ideas. Put some serious thought into your gift giving this year and put a smile on your sweetie's face!
