Last Minute Valentine's Day Ideas

Valentine's Day takes place every year on Feb. 14. So if you've just started thinking about buying a gift for that special loved one, then you have a serious problem with  procrastination.

Luckily, Rosemount Patch has some great last-minute gift ideas. We'll show you where to go and offer up a variety of ideas to make this Valentine's Day one that your loved one will never forget.

1) It's All About The Flowers, Baby
Let's be honest. You should have ordered flowers already. But if you haven't, there is still hope. Call at (651) 423-6300. It might be too late to get those flowers delivered, but they still have plenty of great choices for last-minute gifts from the heart.

2) You Can Never Go Wrong With Jewelry
It's a rare woman who would say no to a special set of earrings or a heart-shaped pendant. Even better, there are a number of places you can go locally to find that perfect piece of jewelry. One favorite is the Kohl's at 14926 Florence Trail (near the Sam's Club). They have a large selection of choices in all prices ranges and even better, they're having a sale on many of the items.

But buying your loved one a piece of jewelry isn't enough. You need to also include a bit of romance and whimsy.

3) Give The Gift Of Love Coupons
This web site has a series of "love coupons" you can print off and give to your loved one. They offer everything from a full-body massage to "one guilt-free night with your friends." Not every coupon might apply to your situation and giving just coupons as a Valentine's Day gift is a dangerous approach. But when combined with some other tender ideas, they can be a lot of fun.

4) Dinner And A Movie
It might be too late to get a reservation at that special restaurant. But you can still order something special to go and combine it with a romantic movie. Redbox has several locations in Rosemount and they are currently running a special Valentine's Day promotion. Rent one movie and get a second free if you provide a valid email address during check-out.

If you think "Paranormal Activity 2" might be a perfect date movie, then head over to . They have a wide selection of romantic movies and some special Valentine's Day movie picks for the especially clueless romantics.

5) Give Your Valentine A Gift From The Heart
In every relationship, there is that one thing that your loved one knows you just don't want to do. Maybe your partner loves Thai food and you prefer burgers. Perhaps you would rather spend a year in prison than read her a love poem. If it's something you feel comfortable doing, then give them that treat today. It won't cost you anything and it will no doubt make them very happy. There is nothing sexier than offering someone a gift they know is difficult for you to give.
