Valentine’s Gifts that Don’t Suck

January 29, 2024 by Duffy Perkins

Chocolate is great, and flowers are lovely. But your relationship deserves a little more than drugstore novelty items, doesn’t it?

 

Annapolis Blues Football Club Season Tickets

These are undoubtedly the hottest tickets in Annapolis. More than just a soccer game, Annapolis Blues matches offer a ton of fun for the whole family. And season tickets are just $120 for adults, and that includes VIP meet and greets, happy hours with team ownerships, and much more. More than just a bunch of wilting flowers, this is a gift that will deliver all year long. 

Park Books’ Words in Action Subscription Box
Do you have a voracious reader in your home? The Park Books Words in Action project is a subscription box of 1-3 titles chosen by your favorite authors and sent directly to your home. And the books themselves aren’t your mainstream book club picks – these are books that have been formally challenged or banned somewhere in the United States. Broaden your own reading horizons, support a local bookseller, and become an advocate for free speech. 

Watermark’s Thomas Point Lighthouse Cruise

Yes, it is currently freezing cold. But soon enough the weather will be gorgeous, and you’ll want to be on the water. Watermark’s Thomas Point Lighthouse Cruise offers both a historical look at one of the Chesapeake Bay’s most recognizable landmarks as well as a beautiful day on the water. Booking begins for weekends in April. $35 adult, $18 children. 

Get a Clean Car with MAD Soaps

We may be projecting here, but is there anything better than a pristinely clean car? And while it’s lovely when your spouse gets the kids involved to clean up the nightmare that is the backseat, for Valentine’s Day, let the professionals handle that mess. It’s just $199 for three hours of deep cleaning that will make you love your minivan all over again. If your Valentine is a clean-car aficionado, higher end packages are available including things like “crevice cleaning” and paint correction. 

All the Rage Vintage One-of-a-Kind Finds

If you want something truly unique, head to All the Rage Vintage on West Street. It’s impossible to say exactly what treasure you’re going to find, since the collection is eternally evolving. But look for funky home décor, vintage lingerie, classic statement pieces of clothing, cowboy boots from actual ranch hands, and tons of nostalgic items that will make your sweetheart say, “I used to have one of these when I was a kid!”
