Valentine’s Day 2024 is peeking around the corner, and let’s be real – it’s not just a day for the lovey-dovey couples.
It’s a celebration of love in all its forms, be it the bond you share with your besties, the support from your fam, or the all-important act of pampering yourself because, hey, self-love is the best love!
Navigating the gift maze on a budget, especially under Rs. 3000, can be a tad tricky, but fret not! I’ve scoured the market to bring you some amazing ideas that won’t have your wallet weeping but will surely make your loved ones (or yourself) beam with joy.
1. Personalized Mugs or Cushions
Nothing screams “thoughtful” louder than a personalized gift. Imagine sipping chai from a mug that has a quirky quote or a fond memory printed on it, or snuggling up with a cushion that’s got a special message. Local online stores are loaded with a great collection, offering a personal touch without breaking the bank.
2. Books for the Bibliophiles
If you or your giftee is a bookworm, then a captivating novel or a motivational book can be a perfect pick. From thrilling mysteries to heartwarming romances, there’s a book for every taste.
3. Spa Day
The trend of spas in Pakistan is at its boom, and we wouldn’t blame anyone. Who wouldn’t love a bit of pampering? Assemble a DIY spa kit with scented candles, bath bombs, and handmade soaps. Many local artisans create these lovely items with a personal touch, and they’re delightful for a cosy, relaxing evening.
And if that sounds like too much work, just grab a gift voucher from your favourite spa spots in your city and present it to your loved one or enjoy a pampering session all by yourself.
