Nothing
Ahead of Valentine's Day, a UK-based retailer called Poundland has a heart-shaped package called 'The Gift Of Nothing!' It is an empty heart-shaped plastic cover priced at EUR 1 (Rs 81).

A fake lizard-infused soap bar
Soap bars in the shape of different animals and birds are quite common in the market. In case you know the reptile your ex dreads the most, you know the shape of soap you have to look for. With humans having a common dislike for lizards, you can look for soap with an artificial lizard stuck it.
A box of wrappers
Don't throw away those chocolate wrappers, save them for your ex. Now that we have saved your gift money, spend a little on the package. You can probably give it a fancy gift wrap with a cute little bow on it, only to increase the excitement. You can already guess the look on the person's face when they open it.
Cockroaches
A campaign run by Hemsley Conservation Centre in Kent, UK wants you to gift your former partner a cockroach! Yes, they have started 'name a cockroach programme' hoping to raise money for their projects. A statement from the zoo said, "For those that don't quite require revenge, there's another way to make you feel better about getting back at your ex this Valentine's Day. We are offering the chance to name a cockroach in honour of your worthless ex-someone on this special holiday of love." So you have two options with cockroaches.
Disguised box of broccoli
This is a tried and tested prank and works every single time. Dip broccoli in chocolate sauce and let it dry. You can also put in a little creativity and make it look like different types of chocolates. People generally make it look like Ferrero Rocher and package it in those fancy boxes also. Broccoli can also be replaced with onions or other vegetables.
While these are our ideas, you can clearly replace the options with a better ingredient of your choice. These are for pure fun and hope not to offend emotional sentiments of people. We hope you have a great Valentine's Day (for those celebrating)!
