Tiffany’s Helps You Put a Ring on It

Instead of worrying about what to buy your beau for Valentine’s Day, have you been busy fretting about what he’s going to give you? As usual, Tiffany & Co. is coming to your rescue. The luxury jeweler is giving you a hand at strong-arming your man with their new “Drop a Hint” widget, an option on their website placed on the right-hand rail right above your wish list.

What exactly does it do? Once you’ve spotted the object of your desire, click the button, and you’re sent to an e-card, which you can fill out and email to your significant other. Below, Tiffany’s not-so-subtle message:

“Dear (fill in partner’s name): As you may know, Valentine's Day is fast approaching, but do not fret. A little bird told us that this will be a smashing success with (your name here). Of course, if you have other ideas for Valentine's Day, this is just a hint."

So, instead of sending your mother on the whole engagement campaign, you can just let Tiffany do the talking. But be warned: It may not give you the change in relationship status you’ve been searching for (read: you may be singing a different sort of "Single Ladies" tune).
