3 Fun Ideas For Valentine’s Day 2011
Whether you’re deciding to spend it with someone you love or you’re single and ready to mingle or perhaps you want to spend it simply with some friends. Whatever your plans, here are some fun ideas that can apply to any and/or all of you, depending on who you’re with.
Dinner & Movie Date: This idea may seem old fashioned, but bringing it back this Valentine’s Day in style could be just the ticket for couples and singles alike. Whenever I found myself single (which used to be a LOT! :P), my girl friends and I would get together on Valentine’s Day for dinner and a movie to avoid eating a gallon of ice cream at home alone. Yeah, ladies, you know what I’m talking about! SO, in order to avoid major pounds gained on V-day, we would all meet up at a restaurant and either do a Secret Santa type gift exchange or, depending on how many people make it, simply buy gifts for one another. It doesn’t need to be anything too expensive or big, but it should be in the name of self love. If you’re close and comfy with your friends, this could mean a vibrator or mini lubricants, but if you’re unsure, stick with feminine, beauty or personal products. Romance Attack has some cute items available here. If you have guys in your group, shaving kits are cool, travel size colognes or even small $5-$10 gift cards will do. For the movie, a comedy is suggested to keep spirits up and enjoy laughs and generally have a good time. If you prefer to avoid couples, rent some flicks and go to a friend’s house for movie night.
If you’re attached, married, and/or in love or possibly just having fun with someone exclusively, dinner and a movie is fun for couples too! In your case, I would decide on a restaurant early and make reservations. If you can, choose somewhere off the usual path of eateries. Last year, my boyfriend and I were literally cattle called into a Rainforest Cafe with a little less than 3 inches between us and the other couples around us. I felt like I could have commented on their conversation during the meal. Awkward. So for this reason, avoid the usual franchises if you can or plan to make dinner at home. For the movie option, agree on a fun film you both would like to see or rent some films and enjoy them on the couch without the crowd. Then you can easily transition to the bedroom when things get hot and heavy!
Spend A Romantic Night In: Valentine’s Day can be a scary train wreck of an event if you’re unprepared. Actually, even when I make an effort to call in reservations at a restaurant, it’s still packed everywhere. Therefore, I propose Valentine’s be spent at home. Whether you’re single or attached, the night can definitely be fun. If you’re single, plan a pot luck at your home or a friend’s home, make dinner or cater if you can afford to spend. Spend the evening drinking (21+ Only!) and dining with good friends and interesting conversations. Gift exchanges are fun, if your group is into that, but either way, you’re sure to have a good time. If you’re all girls, chick flicks are a go, but if you plan on having guys over too, dancing or karaoke are fun options to consider.
If you’re planning on spending this Valentines Day with your beau, perhaps one of you could plan to make dinner for the other or it can also be a joint effort. Decide on a new recipe to try or plan an old fashioned 5 course meal. Exchange gifts if you wish and end the night with naughty games, a movie or some fun alone time. Fun Couples Kits for these events are always a great addition to the night! If you’re a lady in a relationship, check out some Sexy Shoes & Lingerie for that special night. If you’re really daring, get one of these and do a naughty striptease for your lover.
Visit A Museum, Theme Park Or Go On An Adventure!: Whether you’re single or attached, this is a fun option to spend this special day. You can choose to visit a local museum or art gallery, Disneyland or another nearby amusement park, or go on an adventure. Museums are fun for those who enjoy learning new things or enjoy history or art, depending on the type of museum or gallery that you visit. For adventurers, Skydiving, Rock or Mountain Climbing or simply taking a hike are all fun ways to spend the day. If you choose to do something in the great outdoors, a picnic is a nice addition. If you can’t get to the wilderness, but fancy outdoor activities, many indoor rock climbing gyms have been popping up everywhere. Hit up google to find one close to you.
All in all, if you’re single or attached or somewhere in between, there are plenty of fun ways to spend this greeting card holiday. However you decide to spend it, make sure there’s plenty of laughs to be had and a great memories made. Worst case scenario, check out our Couples Kits, Toys for Men or Toys for Women for a Good Time Anytime!
Good luck!

UPDATE!: Store Sales & Promotions Vs. Online Sales & Promotions
Due to recent incidents at some of our store locations, I decided to post this blog to note to customers who may shop there or here online (or both!) to make you all aware of certain things regarding promotions and sales to minimize any confusion, anger or frustration while shopping.
First things first, any sales online are in NO WAY directly or indirectly linked with sales at any of our store locations unless otherwise stated. This means if we are having 40% OFF certain items online, that DOES NOT mean we are having this same sale at a store location. In fact, our managers may not even know we are having an online sale.The same goes for free gift with purchase offers or other promotions. The fact of the matter is that we actually do not always have the same products at our given locations and there may be different items available online than in any store location, making offering the same free gift offers impossible.
Given the fact that we have separate managers for each of our locations and that our locations literally span the United States, it would not only be impossible to coordinate the same sales, but it also just would not be practical to do so. Tailored as the stores are to their locations, it also makes sense for their sales to apply to their local customers, and is not necessarily a corporate thing, though it may get corporate approval. The same goes for online customers. That being said, we may hold a joint online and in-store sale, but we will NOTE THIS in a blog written by me or it will be stated on the RA website or the respective RA Twitter pages.
Please also note that there is a main RA Twitter for online promotions and several other Twitter pages for each of our store locations for their separate promotions and sales. I urge you, if you do shop at a specific location, to follow us here at Romance Attack Online and also the specific store location near you to avoid any confusion or irritation. If you don’t know which location is closest to you, feel free to check out our various Store Locations to see where Romance Attack physical stores are located throughout the United States.
I apologize, on behalf of everyone here at Romance Attack, for any confusion or annoyance this may have caused anyone during their shopping experience.
With that all said and done, I will take this moment to remind everyone our New Years’ Sale has been extended to January 10th, 2011 so hurry while this promotion lasts & get 20% OFF All Orders $20+Up!
Happy 2011!
