Bar soap container boxes.  I remember having one to take to camp eons ago when I was younger.  I know people must still use bar…

Many credit cards and all U.S. passports issued after 2006 (plus some other ID cards, such as workplace IDs and some state drivers licenses) contain radio frequency identification (RFID) chips that broadcast personal information. They are constantly transmitting and thieves that have an RFID reader can capture that information just by walking by you. That’s right, even if the credit card or passport is in a bag or a purse they can get that information, and the only way they can’t is if you block that signal.

I’m a free agent when it comes to coffee.  I enjoy different flavors and brands, and so single serve cups make the most sense for me when it comes to brewing coffee.

I know I’m not unique in my love for coffee – and if someone, anyone really, gave me a Valentine with some Java attached to it, well let’s just say they’d be counted as pretty special in my book.  

And when I recently received a 40-count variety box of Java Factory Single Serve Cups, I had a momentous break through of the cutest Valentine ever for the coffee loving male squeeze in your life.

Adding a card stock tag to a crazy or heart shaped straw is another alternative to giving out candy Valentines.  I found the straws 6/$1 at Dollar Tree.

I know a lot of parents don’t want to give out more candy on Valentine’s Day and would like to have their children hand out alternative sentiments to their friends.  The other day I had one for a pencil and note pad, and today I have one for a game Valentine.

Valentine themed mini erasers serve as a stand-in for X’s and O’s in this tic-tac-toe game.

If you’re looking for alternatives to candy for Valentine’s this year, this cute pairing of pencil and notepad is a great option.  I purchased the pencils 6 for $1.00 and the mini composition books 3 for $1.00 at Dollar Tree. 

I have both a Silhouette V3 File for those with a Portrait or Cameo as well as a PDF to print and cut if you don’t and want to just do them by hand. 

For each set all you need is some colored card stock and some tape in addition to the pencil and notebook.
