Best Valentines buys

The good news: a great Valentines gift is all about the personal touch – and that’s usually the stuff that comes for free. If your loved one is the type to appreciate the Le Creuset mini heart ramekin, for example, add a hand-written recipe card. Or treat the gadget lover in your life to a new iPod and have it engraved with a soppy message for free.

More good news: Valentines Day is close enough to Christmas that you can still pick up a trinket in the sales. Try Mulberry for keyrings and heart shaped luggage tags; Brora for cashmere (search by colour for Valentines-appropriate scarlet). Some deals and discount codes below; plenty more to come.
