    What’s the Deal with Valentine’s Day Gifts?

    In South Africa, Valentine's Day is often associated with classic romantic gestures like chocolates, flowers, and jewelry. But let’s face it, not everyone fits into that mold. Some people are taking a more practical approach to expressing their love, and this trend has sparked quite the conversation about what makes a gift truly meaningful.

    Penny Holburn weighed in on the debate with Briefly News, offering some insightful thoughts:

    "The secret to giving a meaningful gift lies in understanding what your partner truly values. Some women adore chocolates and flowers, while others prefer practical items they can use daily. And then there are those who just want to create lasting memories together. It all boils down to understanding your partner's 'love language,' which helps you choose the perfect present."
