Worst Valentine's Day Gifts

Valentine's day is just around the corner and yes, that means more business for the shopping malls! They say love and respect is the most important thing in a relationship and not the present that you give, but here are some no-nos on what to buy. Even though I'm not attached, I know us females(or males) may not fully appreciate the following gifts:

1. Slimming cream/pills: Your partner may be chubby but she certainly does not need you to remind her that she needs to lose weight.

2. Acne/pimple or wrinkle-reducing products: Sure, not everyone has flawless skin but we dont need you telling us we need help.

3. Hair loss products: Need I say more?

4. Plastic flowers: Come on, we would rather have no flowers than plastic flowers.

5. Hair removal products: Anyone with a brain will know how insulting it can be to be asked indirectly to remove excess hair. What's so bad with being hairy?

6. Kitchen appliances: Think she would love that new state-of-the-art toaster? The only thing that is going to be toast is you.

7. Fake jewellery: Either go for the good stuff or avoid buying jewellery at all. Your partner will not be too pleased when that fake piece starts rusting.

8. Nothing: If you are in debt or a struggling student or trying to make ends meet, you are excused. Other than that, girls appreciate even a simple gift that is meaningful. There are lots of fabulous gifts that can be purchased for under 50 bucks if you are on a budget. If you intend not to give anything, dont expect any good old loving for the next few weeks, or forever.

Hope it gives you some insight on gift ideas. Good luck to all the couples out there! For singles like me, lets keep the love flowing people!
