23 Stress-Free Valentine's Day Gifts You Can Score From Amazon This Year

From one friend to another: Skip the candy aisle this Valentine's Day. There's so much more potential for Valentine's Day gifts than the overdone chocolates and roses, and you should take the holiday as a way to put personality into your gift giving while also giving your valentine something they'll enjoy. Sure, you can add some sweets to round out your gift (we suggest these specialty chocolate-covered strawberry delivery services) but let's be real: Those chocolates never get finished in time anyway! Buying them something they'll actually be able to use long after the holiday weekend is through is ideal, and these gifts are available through Amazon so you can have them at your doorstep in as little as two days in some cases. (Just in case the holiday slipped your mind!)

Consider this your guide for gifts you should be buying for your go-to drinking buddy, your every morning coffee date, and your binge-watching partner. Show your love in the form of a gift you know they'll put to good use and in some cases, will be a gift that keeps on giving—I'm looking at you, waffle maker.
