Before you splurge money on super frivolous Valentine’s Day gifts, take into consideration these ideas that are easy on your wallet:

USB drives don’t cost much — neither do files of the things both of you have that you enjoy together. Why not make it portable for each other?

2. Love Coupons
The idea is to present your boyfriend/girlfriend with a coupon book of coupons redeemable for romantic things that don’t cost much money. I don’t think I need to go into further detail. More »

If you do talk about money and it matters that much to you, I will not be seeing you again after the first date. More »
