Ive looked around to find some of the coolest places to shop online for that one e-gift that will make your loved one melt. Heres what I discovered:

My first stop took me to 1800flowers.com. This online flower shop has every combination of flowers, vases, teddy bears, candy, and cards you need to woo your woman. One feature I particularly like about this site is the option to shop within your budget. They have so graciously supplied a menu of categories to suit your wallet. If you only have $20 to spend, then select the under $30 option. For all the big spenders out there, you may want to select the $150+ option. This is a great site for those of you who are trying to impress a lady for the first time as well as the weathered relationship veterans. When in doubt, flowers always work nicely.

For those of you who are willing to be a bit more risqu, I surfed my way into a very well-known and respectable lingerie site, victoriassecret.com. Victorias Secret also has that great feature of letting the shopper choose what price range is in your range (though I suggest if youre going to shop here that you get ready to spend more than $40). That being said, the secret is out that all ladies enjoy looking and feeling sexy.

Bookbyyou.com is a fantastic place to shop if you want to add that personal touch to your gift. This site was extremely amusing to me since it allows you to sample the product before you make a decision. If your lady likes romance novels, then shell really get a kick out of being the heroine in one, especially with you as the hero. Shell look at you in a whole new light after reading this personalized novel. This is a nice gift because it only costs $29.95, and its completely customized throughout. All you need to do is take the time to fill out the survey about you and your loved one.

Finally, for those of you who want to spend a little bit more to win over your woman, vermontteddybear.com will suit your needs nicely. The Vermont Teddy Bear Company is the ultimate place to shop for a cute stuffed bear personalized to suit your ladys personality. There are many default styles to choose from, but you can also mix and match to make your own bear just the way shed like it. When you buy a bear you have the option of buying hundreds of clothes and accessories for your bear, as well as a free personalized card and chocolate for the one you love. The nice thing about this gift is the lifetime guarantee that comes with it. If anything ever happens to your bear, you can send him to their teddy bear hospital where he will be fixed up like new and returned to you. Send your lady a Bear-Gram and I promise shell love you for it.

Thats all I have for gift ideas this year. If you feel ambitious enough to search the web a little, there are some great gift ideas out there that you can shop for from the comfort of your PC. All the above gifts can be purchased online and shipped to the doorstep of your loved one. Although its too late for Valentines Day this year, keep in mind that you can buy presents for your lady year round, and Im certain shell find you irresistible for it.
