Cheap and thoughtful, without being cheesy? We gotcha.
Whether you’re looking for Valentine’s Day gifts for him, unique Valentine’s Day gift ideas or a small Valentine's Day gift that still packs a punch, there’s something here that’ll suit. We’ve brought together the best affordable Valentine’s Day gifts you can buy online for less than £20, including the cost of delivery.
For the romantic valentine
Revolution 'You Are My Type' scented Candle
£10 + £4 shipping These Revolution candles pair incredible scents with cute slogans designed to make your sweetheart swoon. These candles look (and smell) far more luxe than their price tag! We love the woody notes in this ‘You’re my type’ candle—amber and bergamot make for a great combo that’s not sickly sweet.
For the coffee-loving valentine
Hario V60 Coffee Dripper
£14.95 + free shipping
Coffee snobs will love this V60 coffee dripper set, complete with filters and a matching measuring scoop. Hario is well-known for its sleek, high quality designs, and the fun colour makes it a bit different from your standard coffee maker. Throw in a bag of coffee for the perfect V Day morning brew.
For the steamy valentine
Sliquid Balance Soak Cherry Blossom Bubble Bath
£12.99 + £3.99 shipping
Sliquid has a cult following—the brand’s organic lubes and beauty products have been raved about by everyone from Gwyneth Paltrow to Mens’ Health Magazine. This cherry blossom bubble bath smells amazing, and the non-irritating formula will leave your valentines’ skin feeling silky soft. Run a bath and add candles for the perfect romantic evening for two.
For the craft beer valentine
Camden Canister
£9 + £4.99 shipping
Beer lovers will appreciate this gift pack of London-brewed craft ales and lagers, delivered in a sleek-looking canister. It’s more stylish than picking up a pack of beers at the supermarket, and you can add a gift message for a personalised touch. If your valentine isn’t into hoppy flavours, Beerhawk has gift sets of stouts and lagers, too.
For the foodie valentine
Chocolate and Prosecco Mini Gift Hamper
£15.35 + £3.95 shipping
Chocolate and bubbles are a classic combo for a reason. This mini hamper is a thoughtful way to treat your valentine if you can’t be together on 14 February. Add a greeting card (it’s just 95p) if you want to include a sweet love note. Valentine’s packages tend to be on the pricey side, but this hamper is an affordable option that still looks luxe.
For the plant-loving valentine
String of Hearts Variegated House Plant
£9.99 + free shipping
This string of hearts houseplant is the perfect gift for a green-fingered valentine. The subtly heart-shaped leaves are cute without being cheesy; and the variegated pattern makes each plant unique. These succulents are really easy to look after, and at less than £10, you can throw in a cute pot without breaking your budget. We love this plant pot from Dunelm—it’s only £3.50.
For the self-care savvy valentine
Japanese Cherry Blossom & Strawberry body butter
£16 + £3 shipping
We adore everything in the Body Shop’s Japanese Blossom range. Juicy notes of strawberries, pink peony and amber are a perfect blend of fresh and fruity, making this the perfect present for any valentine—especially those with dry skin woes. At only £16 a pop, it’s the perfect ‘bougie on a budget’ gift. Pair it with a promise of a massage for a winning Valentine’s Day present.
For the poetic valentine
'Poems to Fix a F**ked Up World' poetry collection
£8.19 + free shipping
Looking to wax lyrical about your love? Skip the soppy sonnets in favour of a more down-to-earth poetry collection, like Poems to Fix a F**ked Up World. Bringing together wisdom, humour and comforting words from various writers, this is the perfect gift for a cynical valentine with a soft spot for poetry.
