Love it or hate it, Valentine's Day has conditioned us to buy gifts. Yet, according to a recent KAYAK survey, most people would rather travel with their sig-O than exchange gifts for Valentine's Day. We put together a few getaways with that in mind, plus some outside-the-chocolate-box gifts they'll enjoy, use, and remember long after February.
