1. A copy of The Astrology of You and Me because your love is written in the stars and your astro charts totally match up. From cohabitating to money to sex, this handy horoscope-driven guidebook covers it all (and looks great on a coffee table, too).

2. An intimacy deck that'll help you get to know your partner even better than you already do. Each card includes a question that'll help you connect on a deeper level — who doesn't want that?

3. A bottle of Canadian-made habanero hot sauce that's a little bit fancier than Tabasco or Cholula (not knocking those, they're amazing). If you want to spice up your Valentine's dinner date, this will do the trick.

4. A deck of affirmation cards that'll give them the dose of positivity they need when you're not around to give it to them. Reviewers say that they're simultaneously inspiring and hilarious, which is a combo I can get on board with.

5. A stylish silicone ring that won't rust or tarnish over time and is comfortable to wear while working out. They can also swap their engagement ring or wedding band with it when they travel so the real deal doesn't get lost.

6. A bamboo caddy tray that'll help them maximize their R&R. It has a recessed wine glass holder, extra storage hooks for loofas, and a bar to rest their book or tablet on.

7. A bestselling bucket list book to fill with ideas and goals for your future together. It has space for stories and other notes, so you can remember all the details of what you've accomplished (and have yet to accomplish) as a team.

8. A non-stick waffle maker that makes heart-shaped waffles and will make every breakfast more romantic. It has an adjustable browning control, so they can make your waffles as crispy as they want.

9. A scratch-off map so they'll be able to remember where they've been (and where they still have left to go). It may also inspire a couple's getaway, which would be a huge win for the both of you.

10. A copy of One Pan, Two Plates, a cookbook jam-packed with recipes for couples. All dishes can be made in one skillet, so you won't have to fight over who's doing the dishes when you're done cooking.

11. A Fujifilm Instax camera that shoots and prints all in one go, so they'll never have to wait to get your cute couple selfies developed again. It even has a screen on the back that they can use for editing, so their pics will come out perfect every time.

12. And a set of transparent magnetic frames that fit Instax photos, so you can cover your fridge in your adorable pics.

13. A portable laptop and breakfast tray, so that you can serve them breakfast in bed in style. It can also be used as a table for your laptop, if you like to spend your dates streaming videos under piles of duvets.

14. A waterproof Bluetooth speaker that has killer sound quality and can withstand even the snowiest and rainiest conditions. It's perfect for playing love songs for your boo no matter where you are.

15. A stainless steel fondue set, because if the thought of bubbling cheese and chocolate doesn't woo your partner, I seriously don't know what will. Reviewers love how easy it is to clean and say you get a lot of bang for your buck.

16. A canvas toiletry bag, so that they don't shove their essentials in your bag next time you go on a vacation. Reviewers say its the perfect size and is super durable.

17. A set of artsy, typewritten love postcards that sound and look so beautiful, your partner won't even care that you didn't write them yourself.

18. A set of British rose Body Shop goodies that's less expensive than a trip to the spa, but will make them feel totally pampered. They smell like a bouquet of roses, so they'll probs forgive you for skipping the expensive flowers.

19. A pair of smooching whale keychains that are a lot cuter than carabiners. Keep one for yourself and give the other to the love of your life.

20. A celestial One Line a Day journal that'll take them a whole five years to complete. Now all their most treasured mems (including the special ones they share with you) will be conveniently kept in one written time capsule.

21. A bottle of water-based lube to make sure everything goes smoothly in the bedroom 😉. To quote Sebastian the crab, "darling it's better, down where it's wetter, take it from me."

22. A variety pack of beard oils to add shape and shine to their beard, and get rid of any annoying itchiness. Plus, they smell great, which obviously benefits you, too!

23. A ceramic trinket dish where they can put all their baubles and bling before they go to bed. If they're not big on jewellery, they can use it to hold their keys instead.

24. A crème brûlée pan, so that they don't have to go to a restaurant to enjoy their favourite indulgent dessert. If you've got some extra money lying around, pair it with a torch, so that they can acheive that perfect carmelized crust, too.

25. A Kindle Paperwhite, so that they can carry a whole library of books with them wherever they go. Not only is this a more eco-friendly option than a paperback, but it allows them to magnify the font and change the boldness of the text, if they're having a hard time seeing.

26. A mini felt letter board sign for their desk that'll make their workspace the envy of everyone in their office. It comes with 160 letters, numbers, and symbols, so they'll have everything they need to craft their message.

27. A classic pair of Blundstone boots to get them through winter treks, summer hikes, and every other adventure. They come with removable insoles for added comfort and warmth.

28. A set of David's Tea's most popular feel-good blends that'll give them some more interesting cozy beverages to drink than their go-to Earl Grey.

29. A jar of Lindt milk chocolate spread that's like Nutella, but even more indulgent. They'll want to put it on everything from toast to ice cream, or, ya know, just eat it with a spoon.

30. A set of Endy sheets, because let's face it, you'll be spending most of Valentine's Day in bed. Reviewers say the fitted sheet stays on snug thanks to its slip-proof band, so you don't have to worry about getting tangled up mid-romp.

31. A bestselling book of iconic record covers that showcases the best rock album art from the '60s to the '90s. If your partner loves music, they'll probably love this.

32. A ravioli maker that'll help them create some seriously gourmet Italian meals (hopefully for you). It comes with easy-to-follow recipes for pasta dough and ravioli so they can start testing out your skills as soon as they open it.

33. A genius comforter with one warm side and one cool side to keep you both at the perfect temperature while you sleep. Now you won't have to fight about whether to turn the fan on or off.

34. A vintage Casio watch, so they're never late for any of your dates again. Reviewers love its old school look and say its super comfortable and lightweight.

35. A sleek cocktail mixing set that includes everything they'll need to create some killer beverages. Cheers to coming home to masterfully crafted mojitos, margaritas, and Manhattans.

36. A compact bread maker, because dating a baker will save you some serious dough (and some trips to the bakery). It can even delay baking time, so they can wake up to freshly baked bread in the morning or come home to a piping hot loaf after work.

37. A Click and Grow garden that'll make them feel like a seasoned botanist and give you free access to the freshest (and cheapest) herbs. I have one of these and my boyfriend keeps talking about stealing my basil. Will he succeed? Only time will tell.

38. A romantic card game that includes conversation starters, flirty games, and fun dares. Reviewers say it makes a great addition to any date night and will help you connect better.

39. A set of colourful bath bombs that'll take their baths to the next level. Reviewers love how soft these make their skin feel and mention that even the brightest ones won't stain ceramic.

40. A pour over coffee set that will make their morning routine a hundred times more Instagrammable. It has a built-in mesh stainless steel filter that eliminates the need for paper filters.

41. A leather Timberland wallet that's super slim and can easily slide into a back pocket. Reviewers are impressed with the low price and high quality.

42. A copy of Strange Planet, which spotlights seemingly boring day-to-day stuff from an alien's perspective. The one's about relationships are pretty darn cute, so you'll probably want to flag them for your Valentine.

43. A booze-inspired candle that'll make their home smell like a million bucks and set the mood for your date nights. It can burn for up to 40 hours, so they'll get plenty of use out of it.

44. Or a light-up aromatherapy diffuser that they don't have to remember to blow out and will fill their home with spa scents. It also works as a humidifier, if their space tends to feel a bit stuffy.

45. A wooden recipe holder that lists measurement conversions, so it's helpful even when it's not propping up a tablet or cookbook.

46. A set of granite whiskey stones that will keep their drinks icy cold, but won't water them down. We’re not saying you should pair it with a bottle of whiskey, but…You should probably pair it with a bottle of whiskey.

47. Dating a proud plant parent? Get them this mini watering can that, frankly, is too cute for its own good. It has a long nozzle, so they can even get it into more dense plants.

48. A portable cocktail glass that'll allow them to bring their favourite boozy beverage with them wherever they go. It's also great for coffee, but, let's be honest, they'll use it for wine.

49. A set of meat claws that will give them the power of Wolverine in the kitchen and have them making you some pretty impressive dinners. They're great for pulling, shredding, and lifting larger pieces of meat.

50. A pack of collagen face masks that'll help them firm and smooth their skin. It comes in a pack of six, so you'll be able to steal one or two for yourself.

51. And finally, a gratitude journal, because they're probably thankful for every moment you've been together. Reviewers say it's super inspirational and pushes them to recognize all the good things around them.
