I can not believe how fast this month has gone so far and it’s almost Valentine’s Day!
I admit… I haven’t done anything for Valentine’s Day so far… but I have Walmart to the rescue!
I downloaded Walmart’s Blow a Kiss iPhone application and have been having fun with it and finding great (and cheap) gift ideas from the store and sending kisses for my friends. And yes, you really blow in your iPhone to send kisses and get new gift ideas.
In addition to the gift ideas from the stores, the Walmart community shares great Valentine’s Day tips and you can even send your own personalized Valentine’s Day cards at Walmart.com.
One of my favorites at the site is the Top Love Songs of All Times and I hope you like it too, because you have a change to win an Apple iPod Touch 2nd Generation 8GB and $10 Walmart Gift Card with what you can download ten love songs!

Walgreens saves me every time! I fell and severely sprained my foot last week, and only REMEMBERED V-day when I was filling an Rx at Walgreens the other day. I can’t even drive, so thank God my mom was able to drive me! Cards, treats – all good. :)
Using regular sugar cookie mix – divide the mix in half, color one half with red food coloring. Shape the “red” dough into “x” shapes and the undyed dough into “o” shaped. Bake as directed. Great gift for either your loved one…symbolizing “hugs and kisses” or for kids since it could double as a game of tic tac toe! Voila!
my last min tip is: send hubs a card at the office! this always tickles him… not often he gets fun, personal mail at work.

Personally engraved items make a great gift; most malls have stores that will engrave items such as key chains and it can be done right at the shop. Personalize it with your own special words for a sentimental gift.
Valentine’s Tip – last minute: go to dollar store & purchase 4 or 5 different heart-related items like heart boxers, heart lollipops, etc. and hide them around the house with a note to help your love find them. Make it a little treasure hunt that he can enjoy more than once. Then, conclude the hunt with the treasure of you, wrapped up in some fun lingerie or having made a candle-lit dinner.
