SquidQuest: Inspired Valentine's Day Gifts

This is a Just for Giant Squids SquidQuest

Hey Giants! Are you up for a Purple Star challenge?

If you are, we're looking for some top notch Valentine's Day gift idea lenses to add to a brand new Best of Squidoo MonsterBoard.

When it comes to Valentine's Day gifts, the first things that usually come to mind are cards, candy, and flowers but we know our creative geniuses, aka our Giant Squid lensmasters, can do better than that. We want you to think outside of that heart-shaped Russell Stover box and come up with something fresh and new in the way of gifts to be given on February 14th.

To complete this SquidQuest, create a NEW lens before midnight (EST) on February 2, 2012 that features a creative, inspired, and unique Valentine's Day gift idea. We'll add the best of the bunch to the special Valentine's Day Gift Idea MonsterBoard which will be published on 2/3/2012 and sprinkle spectacular lenses with Purple Stars.

Read on for more information about this exclusive just-for-giants SquidQuest.

    What a fun quest! I escaped from modern life and reality with some suggestions for enjoying an old fashioned romantic Valentine's Day with sleigh rides, ice-skating, bayberry candles and open fires.

    Excellent lens, really worth the read. I've given this page a like.
