Valentine's Day is fast approaching, unfortunately not everyone has money to buy extravagant gifts. Some of us have to actually try and do our best with what little we have. So today I'm going to give you a few ideas on how to make your Valentine Day special. You will be spending very little money, and it will still be Valentine's Day which will be remembered.I will include a few ideas for those in "singledom", so don't despair. https://www.tesco.com/valentines/
♡So let's give it a whirl........ first of all one of the things that you can do together as a couple is to dance!..... yes dance dance dance dance. Dancing is so much fun, and we all have music in our collection (including in the mind and soul), which will remind us of our special love one or a special occasion.
Put the kids to bed, if you have no child care, (just have to be a bit quieter). Light your candles to give a beautiful atmosphere, making the night even more romantic and special. Don't fancy candles, pull out those fairy lights form Christmas, and light up the heart of your love. Start by getting your music player ready by getting YouTube on the internet if you have it, or stack your favourite CD's or favourite ITunes, ready to play. Start reminiscing, sit and play nice music together, music that brings back memories, or music just to makes you both feel good about yourselves, or just feeling good about each other.

Maybe you have some music from your first date night, or your wedding playlist, just enjoy dancing and letting your hair down, just be loose and free with one another. Enjoy re/discovering love for each other.
If you plan ahead, you can compile a playlist for each other remembering what music has special meaning. Be romantic, whilst the music is playing, and the mood is right, shower each other with niceness. Take turns to play, explain to each other what it means to you, why you decided to choose those tracks enjoy!!. remember to say I Love You.
♡Fancy some baking? we all love to eat, so why not find your favourite cake recipe, maybe choose a nice rich layered cake, or some cookies/muffins. Spend the time in the kitchen together with some light music in the background, a bottle of red, or a bottle of your favourite plonk, whatever takes your fancy and just baked together and have fun. When your finish get yourself to the sofa, or somewhere comfy and feed each other your finish delicacy, or you can sit and talk and enjoy the fruits of your labour.
♡Have a spa night, many of us have beauty treatments in our own bathroom cupboards...get them out!!!. Gather some candles make the bathroom nice and warm dim the lights and get the bath running nice and hot. Share it with your love one and just enjoy each other's company. Try giving each other a facial using food ingredients, such as egg whites, avocadoes, honey and oats. Salt and honey makes a great body scrub, just avoid the eyes. Grab some wine and some chocolate's maybe!! whatever you favourite food is , and just enjoy each other's company that is the most important thing.
♡Dream look into each other's eyes and deep in each other's soul,.... dream. We all know that at some point in the relationship we all talk about what we wanted for our futures, for the relationship, where you want to go how we are going to get there. Spend the evening, by candle light. Turn off the TV, music turned low, gather some nice warm blankets and snuggle up with your love one. Maybe spend the night reminiscing about the past. Talk about your dreams for the future, aspirations, keep it low-key. This is all about listening and appreciating each others support. It's really just about fun, seeking bonding time with one another again, remembering why and how the relationship got to the point where it is it .

Maybe a dream of having a round the world trip together, raising a family you've just forgotten about it. Bring it back up, plan how you can actually achieve this dream or it could be opening a café together, writing a book you'll need support from one another so sit down relax cuddle up and enjoy each other's company. Just talk about your dreams and aspirations again. Try relighting the flames which might have been blown out. Enjoy the dream relived the dream to dream is not dead.
♡Cinema night-gather all the cushions from the sofa, your quilts from the bed. Spread your quilts on the living room floor, light your candles dim the lamp, fairy lights. You can achieve this, by spreading a handkerchief over the lampshade (please be careful this can be a fire hazard). Get your favourite movie on the laptop, (lots of free movie web sites available, be savvy, ask a friend). If you really want to go the whole way attach a projector to the wall, onto a white bedsheet. Gets a feast, and get ready to watch your favourite movie together. Maybe you might want to choose a romantic movie, or a movie which holds special meanings. Watch together cuddle up, eating popcorn, crying in each other's arms if you need to, and just enjoy each other's intimate space.♡Now cards are so expensive around Valentine's Day, so why not make your own. They are very simple to make. Get some red card, and just fold it in half and just write from your heart. Still too pricey, grab an old card, and stick white paper over the front and the middle....voila... If this is too difficult for you to think about, or to gather an idea, of what you want to say, when you go out shopping next time, just take a look at the shop cards, get you phone out to take a photo including the words within the card. Return home and just pencil them in your card, easy!!
♡What I try to do during the year is to collect coupons from department stores newspapers offering bargains, for instance 30% off next purchase. At the moment I have a coupon for a facial makeover with Clinique and I have a free five day gym pass at Pure gym which again is free. Most boutiques, grooming retailers will always have some form of freebies available to customers, who would like to try their service. Spend the day going around the shops asking different establishments/retailers for free facials, free hand massages, free haircuts. I also have other websites which do 2-for-1 meals, 40% off main meals, again those coupons can be used. So when you've made your card, put a coupon inside and that can be of great Valentine gift.
♡If you're free why not get some paper and pen and make your own coupons. Your coupons can have things like I give you a hand massage every Friday of the month of February. Another voucher could be, I will cook the meals on the weekends for the month of March, or you will give your love one a massage which can be redeemed any time within the month of February. It is a good idea, to have an inkling of what your Valentine likes or wants. Try to give them something that will make them happy, and special to them. Don't just give what you think is a good gift, because there is no point, offering somebody a full body massage when they're actually quite ticklish. A foot massage when someone is shy of their feet.
♡Valentine is a chance to spend time with your love one. Life can be so busy, so this special day is worth the extra time and effort to ensure your beloved feel "the love". So enjoy, it's only one day a year. Make the effort, go out and spend some time with one another. Valentine is a great time to lavish your spouse or love one, boyfriend and girlfriend. This is an opportunity to rekindle the old flames, "baby I love you"!!!!
Here are some ideas if you're single. Just because there is no man or woman currently in your life, why not spend the day doing something special to keep your mind off "singledom". You can do this by, visiting another friend who is single, and share a bottle of wine together. Jokes!! watch a movie just to take your mind off the whole event.
Valentines is all about showing your love, the special love you have for them. Loving one another, making each other feel special. ... so why not make yourself feel special too.
Don't bother going to work on February 14th, leave an hour early, then you can go home and pamper yourself. You may choose to stay at home, order a take-away and binge while watching movies with your favourite celebrities or your favourite TV show on Netflix just close the curtains and enjoy your own company.
Laugh and be happy and content. Releasing those endorphins will reduce stress boosting your mood and making you feel happy. It may be difficult looking at all those happy couples but nothing is going to change, so don't make yourself depressed or wallow in self pity. Instead, cuddle up watch loads of funny movies one after the other, and just have lots of fun. If you have a pet cuddle up to your pet and give them all the love in your heart. Make them your Valentine.
If you have more than one friend in
♡your circle who is single, throw a singles party, turn your singledom into fun and happiness share it with other single's. Everyone can chip in with the drinks and the snacks and just have a good time. This a great time to play indoor poker or scrabble, or some card games. Even if you're single you deserve to be happy. Try to do everything possible to make that one day a happy one. https://www.tesco.com/valentines/
