Valentine’s Gifts at Grindstore – For Those Who Aren’t Soppy
So if you haven’t realised January is behind us yet, perhaps it is time to remind you that Valentine’s isn’t far away.
Of course, not all of us are soppy and some of us like something just a bit different when it comes to the day of love and roses.
So how about heading over to check out Valentine’s gifts at Grindstore and seeing what they have on offer. After all, they have been at the helm of all things alternative since 2004.
These are 4 of my favourite alternative gifts they have on offer this Valentine’s.
Stay Weird Black Mug.
Anyone who knows me well knows I love a good mug, in fact, I often get told off for buying “just one more”. So of course I had to start my Valentine’s gifts at Grindstore run down with one.
So who was I turn down a mug when it arrived on my doorstep.
Now, let’s be honest in my world there is nothing quite like being a bit weird, so this cup suits me down to the ground.
That is alongside the fact that I love a good cup of tea.
Let’s get down to the stats; this ceramic mug holds around 310ml and comes in at 8cm x 9.5cm. It offers a large handle that fits well into the hand and is perfect for your favourite hot drink.
It doesn’t specify if it’s handwash only or not and I have put it through our dishwasher on the top shelf, but of course, if you want to risk that is up to you.
If you know someone who needs to Stay Weird and would LOVE this mug then check it out on Grindstore for just £5.99.
Cut My Food Into Pieces – Chopping Board.
I actually use Grindstore myself and bought a lot of Ash’s Christmas presents from there. However, I myself was not so lucky as no one granted my wish of this chopping board.
That is until Grindstore themselves came to the rescue.
As someone who blasted Papa Roach out, loudly, through my teens, this chopping board made me smile and now has pride of place in the kitchen.
This glass circular chopping board is made of toughened glass, however, it is a handwash only item.
However, if you know someone who likes to chop away to their favourite music it might be the perfect gift.
This chopping board comes in at an incredible £14.99 and is bound to get people talking if they notice it.
Stay Weird Tote.
Back to Stay Weird – I should probably explain why I’ve included 2 items from the same range, as it isn’t something I would normally do in a post like this. The mug was sent in replacement for one of my picks which had gone out of stock.
That said I have to admit, I don’t mind getting two items from “Stay Weird”. After all, as I mentioned before, I have a mug addiction and I counted the mug out while trying to be good. It was obviously meant to be.
This tote, however, was a must from the get-go, I always find reusable bags are a must-have in the car, as you never know when you will need one.
The smaller size of this one will hopefully mean I can carry small items myself. For anyone wondering it comes in at (38cm x 42cm).
If your tote gets dirty, don’t worry, just wash at 30 (but don’t tumble dry).
Know someone who needs this tote? Well never fear as it comes in at just £4.99.
Just Let Overthink It Cushion.
One thing I do a lot is overthink things. Honestly, I can spend hours just wondering if I said the right thing to someone. So when I saw this cushion I have to admit I did crack a smile (well as much as I can).
As my pain gets worse I find myself using cushions more, to help prop myself up and stay as comfortable as possible. So I am always up for adding a new one to my collection.
This lilac cushion comes in at 41cmx41cm and features a cotton cover with polyester fibre filling.
If you fancy an overthinking cushion for yourself it comes in at £12.99.
Conclusion on Valentine’s Gifts at Grindstore.
I obviously love Grindstore, it’s a website I’ve used myself in the past multiple times.
All the items above are from the Grindstore Originals range. However, they do sell a lot of licensed merchandise from bands, shows, movies, animes and more.
What’s more, they also ship worldwide and an estimated price in euros and dollars can be found on each product page.
I’m sure it doesn’t surprise you to hear of course I’ll be shopping at Grindstore again.

Love this, such brilliant fun and quirky gifts
I am so loving that Stay Weird Black Mug and that Cut My Food into Pieces – Chopping Board! They look fantastic. I’m sure my wife will love these items, too!
They are great aren’t they – it is wonderful that they are useful as well.
The stay weird mug is amazing! Never heard of this website and may have a little browse. From what you have here it looks like they have a variety of items on sale
They have so much – I got my other half all sorts for Christmas, t-shirts, notebooks, bottles etc..
I love Grindstore and I love the Stay Weird items haha – brilliant and perfect for me and the OH. I do love a new mug as well
They are such a great website with so much choice aren’t they?
I love P Roach! that cutting board is fantastic, it made me laugh out loud, I’d be absolutely thrilled to receive it.
It is great isn’t it – I was so happy to finally get it!
I like all of the items you shared, but the tote bag is so practical! Now that New York state has banned single-use bags, a lot of people are going to be needing a tote like that. I already have a few, but I probably need another!
Oh wow, that is incredible they have done that, over here we have to pay for them now so a lot use them, as it’s scary how quickly 10p a go adds up.
These are adorable products that people in my house would love to have! So much fun, I’ll have to go shopping now.
Honestly, it is amazing – there is so many fun ideas.
Never heard of Grindstore, so i nipped over to have a quick look, there are a couple of things which i liked, one which you have here on your blog the chopping board, love it
It is such a great website – I can get lost on there for hours I have to admit.
I have never heard of Grindstore, but I love these gifts! These are definitely unique and great ideas for gift-giving.
They have some really unique ideas no matter what your taste is.
I am definitely NOT a sappy or SOPPY kind of person so bring on the gift that aren’t like that at all!
YAY! Make the day what you want it I say!
I really like alternative gifts for Valentines, instead of the usual stuff I see every year in the shops. I never like the mushy love stuff. The mug is brilliant, and who doesn’t love a mug. Definitely a site I’ll book mark and have a good look at.
So true – mugs are the best – and I’ll just find another cupboard to keep more in I’m sure.
Never bought from Grindstore before but their items look just up my street. Love the stay weird mug.
They are great honestly and I’m saying that as someone who has been buying from them for a while now.
I love that pillow and need to get it for someone I know. The bag is adorable too. Stay Weird. Great sentiment. Perfect.
It is great isn’t it – I think we all know someone, if not ourselves who overthinks things.
Love these suggestions especially the Stay Weird bag!
They are great aren’t they – I love how different their items are.
Some great gift ideas on here.
It’s great that they offer something just a bit different.
I adore the cushion
It is fab isn’t it and so me.
I’ll have to check out the Grindstore online store. Sounds like there may be even more cool gift ideas such as the ones you mentioned. Excellent gifts!
They are so good – there’s something for everyone no matter what you love.
I deffo don’t do the soppy valentines – think last year was the film Sexy Beast (which is pretty gruesome in bits) from the charity shop and once watched given back – so The Grindstore is right up my street!
That is such an awesome idea – love to pass it on again as well.
The cushion is good because that’s exactly what I do
I was going to say glad I’m not the only one – but it isn’t a good thing at all!
So many wonderful gifts. I see a couple of items that I would love. I have to make sure to check out this site.
Oh definitely pop over there is some amazing things on there to choose from.
Hi, wow, now these take my fancy. Quirky and fun and will be entertaining. I especially love the mug but the tote bag is something that I could tell the world about.
They are both so much fun aren’t they – I love that there is so many different choices no matter what way you want something.
Aww, how fun are these? Picking up some fun new cushions for the sofas would be great.
They have some amazing cushions on there – I have another couple I would love to get.
I love these! I’m all for the stay weird bag. I tell my kids this often. Weird is the most fun.
Oh most definitely! Who wants normal when you can be weird 😉
Love this! Definitely inspired me for the upcoming Valentine’s Day. I resent spending a fortune on this day, so these recommendations are well needed! Thank you!
Most definitely you can get fun and useful gifts for not much if you just shop around I think.
That Grindstore seems like it is a great source and you can get anything you need. I would love to see what else they have for Valentine’s Day.
They have some awesome things – well worth checking out their Valentine’s section.
