Outside-the-Box Valentine’s Day Gifts

(WXYZ) - Tired of the whole chocolates and flowers bit?

Want to prove to your significant other that you were thinking outside the box this Valentine’s Day?

For the Valentine that leaves your stomach filled with butterflies, here’s a related (and somewhat wacky) idea—for just $10 dollars you can name a Madagascar hissing cockroach after them. The Bronx Zoo has 58,000 little guys just waiting for a new name like “WooBear” or “Boobaby.”

Here’s a sentimental idea, and it saves you the cost of buying a card! For $12 you can get “What I Love About You” by Kate & David Marshall. It’s a fill-in-the-blank book that helps you write down what might be in your heart, but doesn’t always come out of your mouth.

How about a gift that keeps on giving? Try one of those gift-of-the-month clubs. Sure you’ve heard about them for wine and fruit, but how about a Pizza-of-the-month club or even Cigar-of-the-Month club ?

Is the love of your life a gamer or a tech-geek? Then you have to see these interactive T-shirts for couples. The shirts have 6 light-up hearts on the front. When couples are apart, only a few of the hearts will light up. But when the couple is together, all six hearts are lit. The best part, the shirts are less than $25 each.
