Buying for two is often the hardest. Look for things that they both enjoy, want to  do together and share, or that are truly designed for two. 

In addition to offering great gifts for the kitchen, Sur La Table offers an array of date night cooking classes. Consider a gift certificate for two to attend a Saturday evening cooking class together. If you prefer to buy them something, a great choice is a Bodum Copper French Press. Add a pair of coffee mugs, freshly ground coffee and a­­ mix for homemade biscuits or muffins. Surlatable.com

If they’re a stay-in-all-day-Sunday kind of pair, matching plush robes is a great way to keep them cozy. Robes come in an assortment of colors and are often found in the housewares department with the plush bath towels. Macys.com

For the pair on your list who know EVERY Star Wars reference, Etsy has the perfect gift. A wall framed, “I Love You…I Know”  between Lego Princess Leia and Han Solo, is something you can personalize without breaking the bank. Etsy.com/NabootiqueChic

Love them or hate them, Amazon has lots of great gifts to fit any budget, especially for a couple. From lovely sheets to a fondue set for special evenings at home, the options abound. Cuisinart’s Fondue Set is a great choice, with all of the accessories needed for a chocolate or cheese feast (food not included). Amazon.com

If you’re shopping for the couple that never gets time for themselves, try creating a gift for a simple evening out. Tickets for two to the local movie theatre and a gift certificate for a pizza date night can make for a much needed date night without costing a fortune. Also, don’t forget a homemade gift certificate to take care of the babysitting 
(value – priceless!).
