Staying in on Valentine’s Day can get you a 9-to-life sentence in the Dog House. But, in the weeks following the holiday, when you are inches away from the Poor House, staying in and watching a movie can be an economical and, given the right film, romantic option. With the help of Netflix (and perhaps a fail-proof cookbook) you can ride the wave of Valentine’s for months to come. Also, with gift subscriptions available, you can spread the love, and maybe even the Chinese take-out/overcooked meal duties, too.

It might not earn you as many points as an iPod Nano or the Casio Exlim, but it’s hardly a cop-out by any means.
