Valentine’s Day doesn’t need to be expensive. We’ve scoured the neighborhood for reasonably priced Valentine’s Day gifts.

**Chocolate Hearts**

Heart shaped boxes of chocolate can be found as cheap as 99 cents at [Rite Aid](http://www.riteaid.com/?ref=bklyner.com) (302 Church Ave) and [Walgreens](http://www.walgreens.com/?ref=bklyner.com) (114 Beverly Rd).

In the $10 range you can score a box with “princess” spelled out in rhinestones. [Mime’s Flowers & Gifts ](http://www.yelp.com/biz/mimes-flowers-and-gifts-brooklyn?ref=bklyner.com)(217 Cortelyou Rd) wrapped baskets of chocolate in cellophane.

**Stuffed Animals**

Stuffed doe-eyed puppies with “I love you” boxes are only $4.99, as are funky-heart sock monkeys (pictured above). Larger plush animals aren’t much more that $10 and double as a pillow. (Rite Aid and Walgreens)

**Balloons**

**Cards and Candy**

Grade schoolers traditionally hand out valentine cards to the entire class. Boxes of valentines start at $2.99\. Expect to pay up to $3.50 per box if you want to include pencils or candy. (Rite Aid, Walgreens and Mime’s).

**Flowers**

Roses, the symbol of love, are sold in candy form ($2.99 at Rite Aid and Walgreens) and as long stems ($5 per stem) at [Sigailt Florist](http://www.yelp.com/biz/sigalit-brooklyn?ref=bklyner.com) (406 Church Ave). For something more creative, Sigalit sells potted plants with Valentine’s Day accessories.

Does your budget exceed $10? Sigalit and [Shannon Nursery & Florist](http://www.shannonflorist.com/valentines-day-flowers-94v3c.asp?ref=bklyner.com) (3380 Ft. Hamilton Pkwy) create and deliver indulgent bouquets to match any budget.

**Cookies**  
Just over the Prospect Expressway, the [Brooklyn Commune](http://www.brooklyncommune.com/?ref=bklyner.com) (601 Greenwood Ave) has heart shaped cookies and brownies dunked in pink and red sprinkles that will set you back about $3 per cookie. [Steeplechase](http://www.steeplechasecoffee.com/?ref=bklyner.com) (3013 Ft. Hamilton Pkwy), as of this writing, wasn’t planning on valentine specific treats, but a sugar cookie from them would make any valentine sweet on you.

**Wine**

Walgreens sells a $9.99 Valentine’s Day wine glass set. Pair it with a $5 bottle of Marlborough Hills Chardonnay from Rite Aid. Alternatively, head back to Windsor Terrace. The staff at the [Juice Box](http://www.yelp.com/biz/juice-box-brooklyn?ref=bklyner.com) (1289 Prospect Ave) will find you a bottle for under $10\. Talk up its ‘full body’ and ‘chocolate undertones’ and your date will never know the wine was reasonably priced.
