Galentine’s Day is a time to shower your girls with love! The unofficial holiday originated on the sitcom Parks & Recreation, and became a real-life way to celebrate your besties.
Galentine’s Day takes place the day before Valentine’s Day, on Feb. 13. There’s not much time left to shop and it’s not always easy to find a decent, last-minute gift for your girlfriends — outside of the usual, last-minute gifts which typically include wine, champagne and other giftable spirits (or mocktails and other non-alcoholic drinks). To make that search a little easier, we did some of the digging for you and rounded up a list of 16 gift options that are a perfect way to celebrate the women you love (including yourself!).
And don’t worry if the gifts happen to arrive a little later than scheduled. While many of the items listed offer fast delivery options and in-store pick up for select retailers, others may take a few more days to land. The good news? You can present your girlfriends with gifts on — and after — Valentine’s Day, and Mother’s Day and Best Friends Day will be here before you know it. If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you’ll be able to get your gifts delivered within a couple days (click here to launch your 30-day free trial).
