Whether you’re single or in a relationship, the pressure to celebrate Valentine’s Day is real. Did you make reservations at a romantic restaurant? If you’re strapped for cash, what’s a great cheap date idea? The upside to all the madness is the slew of deals available—and we don’t mean the candy that goes on sale February 15. To help you make the most of the love holiday, we rounded up the best specials around town, including some you can take advantage of before Valentine’s Day.
Gift certificates at Lapis Spa
Guests who purchase a gift certificate to the Fontainebleau Miami Beach spa from February 1 to February 14 will receive 20 percent of the value to redeem toward a future treatment. For instance, if you buy your significant other a $200 gift certificate, you’ll receive $40 to spend on yourself later. It's a win-win.
Discounted admission to Zoological Wildlife Foundation
One of the city’s best—and cutest!—attractions is offering visitors 20 percent off the price of admission throughout the month of February. Tours must be booked in advance (on their site or by calling the zoo), but the deal is available to all. Little Limbani (ZWF’s newest baby chimp) looks forward to seeing you.
$100 special from TrueHair Miami Pro Hair Extensions
Sexy, Victoria’s Secret model-type hair can be yours for cheap this Valentine’s Day. The Midtown hair salon is running a deal through February 15 on a quarter pack of tape-in, all-natural virgin hair extensions, which regularly run about $200. The “sandwiches” (placed above and below strands of hair) are available in 19 different colors. Looking to sport your on locks? Take advantage of $35 blowouts instead.
Staycations at W South Beach
Spending the day with your girlfriends? Book a room at W South Beach. The beachfront hotel is offering all sorts of perks for ladies who book throughout the month of February: 20 percent off ocean-facing rooms, a bottle of champagne upon arrival, a round of cocktails at Living Room bar and a $200 credit to the W Store by Jennifer Miller.
Free dessert and rosé at Mignonette
On February 13, celebrate Galentine’s Day—dedicated to honoring female friendships—at Mignonette restaurants. Every table of women will receive a round of rosé and a special dessert to share on the house. Local lady boss Lolo Reskin of Sweat Records even created a special playlist for the evening.
