Three steps, no preparation
Create wishlist
Type in your email address, and the list is there right away – no waiting for an email. The name “My Valentine’s Day wishes” is already filled in, and you can change it anytime.
Collect wishes
Copy the link from the store and paste it. Name, image and price are added on their own. On your phone, you can also do this right from “Share”.
Share the link
Send the link to everyone, by message or as a QR code. Whatever someone reserves is off the list for the others. They don’t see who it was.
What fits on a list like this
Just a few ideas. Add them with a store link or simply as text.
- An evening at your favorite restaurant
- The book from the nightstand pile
- Concert tickets
- A vinyl record
- A cooking class for two
- A walk with a picnic
On February 14, someone is standing in a store, guessing. A small wishlist – three or four entries – takes the pressure off the day without taking away the romance: what’s on the list comes from you, and when and how it arrives is up to the other person. And because the list is private, only the people you give the link to can see it.
Common questions: Valentine’s Day
- How much do people spend on a Valentine’s Day gift?
- As a rough guide, $25 to $100 for a partner, and less early in a relationship. There’s no expected amount, and a thoughtful small gift lands better than an expensive guess. Many couples agree on a limit beforehand.
- Is it rude not to give a Valentine’s gift?
- No. Plenty of couples skip gifts and mark the day with a card, a home-cooked dinner or a plan for the weekend. What matters is that both partners expect the same thing, so it helps to talk about it ahead of time.
- How far ahead should you book a Valentine’s dinner?
- Two to four weeks ahead is sensible, and popular restaurants fill even earlier. February 14 is a heavily booked night almost everywhere. A weeknight before or after is often easier to get and just as romantic.
- Do kids give valentines to the whole class?
- Often, yes. Many schools ask children to bring a card for every classmate or none at all, so nobody feels left out. Store-bought cards with a small treat are the usual choice, and a handwritten name on each one is enough.
Doesn’t a list take the surprise out of the day?
It says what you like – not what’s coming. When, how and whether it comes from the list at all stays open.
Can anyone else see the list?
Only people with the link. It isn’t public and doesn’t show up in any search.
Can we both keep a list?
Yes, two lists under one email address, or one each of your own.
Do I need an app?
No, a browser is all you need.
What does the wishlist cost?
Nothing.
