Gift Ideas for Girlfriend on a Budget: Mini Figures & Date-Night Activities
| By PawBricks Team
You don’t need a big budget to give a gift that matters. Small, thoughtful presents plus intentional presentation and a shared experience create memories that outlast expensive items. Below are practical, low-cost gift ideas centered around mini figures, date‑night activities, personalization tips — and how to use our shipping & cart discounts to get the best value.
Shipping & Cart Discounts — Quick Summary
- Base price: minis start at $4.99.
- Free shipping: orders of $16.99 or more (we recommend applying this threshold to the order total after discounts).
- Automatic cart discounts: buy more, save more — 2 items = 10% | 3 items = 13% | 4 items = 15% | 5+ items = 20%.
Note: For best customer experience, show discounted subtotal and clearly indicate whether free shipping is calculated before or after discounts (we recommend "after discounts" so customers see final free‑ship eligibility).
Example Savings (for clarity)
Below examples assume each mini = $4.99. Your store may have higher-priced items — use same logic.
| Items | Subtotal | Discount | Total after discount | Free shipping? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × $4.99 | $4.99 | — | $4.99 | No |
| 2 × $4.99 | $9.98 | 10% → −$0.998 | $8.98 | No |
| 3 × $4.99 | $14.97 | 13% → −$1.95 | $12.99 | No |
| 4 × $4.99 | $19.96 | 15% → −$2.99 | $16.97 | Yes |
| 5 × $4.99 | $24.95 | 20% → −$4.99 | $19.96 | Yes |
Tip: If many low‑priced items narrowly miss the free shipping threshold after discount (see 4× example), consider configuring free‑ship qualification based on pre‑discount subtotal OR offer a small coupon to cross the threshold — both can reduce cart abandonment.
Top Budget Gift Ideas — Mini Figures & Small Bundles
1) Single Mini Figure + Note
Pick a mini figure that matches her style and add a 1–2 sentence handwritten note. Cost: typically under $25. Reminder: add another item to unlock cart discount and free shipping faster.
2) Mini + Tiny Treat Bundle
Pair a mini figure with a small chocolate, tea sachet, or dried flower for an inexpensive, thoughtful bundle. Use cart discounts to make bundles even cheaper.
3) Matching Pair for a Shared Build
Buy two matching or complementary minis so you can build together on a cozy date night. With 2 items you'll get 10% off automatically — great value for shared experiences.
4) Mystery Mini Pack
A mystery pack adds surprise and excitement—great for unboxing moments and social shares. Consider buying 3+ to hit a higher discount tier.
FAQs — Shipping & Discounts
Q: How do the cart discounts work?
A: Discounts apply automatically in cart based on the number of mini items: 2 items = 10%, 3 items = 13%, 4 items = 15%, 5 or more = 20%.
Q: Is free shipping calculated before or after discounts?
A: We recommend applying free shipping if the final order total after discounts is ≥ $16.99. If you prefer a different rule (pre-discount subtotal), mention it clearly in cart messaging to avoid confusion.
Q: Can I combine discounts with promo codes?
A: This depends on store policy. If you want to allow stackable promos, adjust discount rules in Shopify so customers see a single final price and clear messaging about stacking rules.
