Instead of gifting something to one another on your anniversary, consider sponsoring an “Anniversary party in a box,” for couples in homeless shelters, or someone in for a lengthy hospital stay. The don’t have to be elaborate. Dollar stores are a great resource for throwing these together, and all of the following can typically be found in their isles:
Plastic fluted glasses
Sparkling juices
Party plates
Candles both real and battery powered
Fake flowers
Many of these stores have discount books you can read to one another
Silly little games in the kid section that are perfect for two
Hershey kisses
Assorted snacks
Gift bags or various boxes for leaving these items in.
