My partner and I stay far away from everywhere on Valentines Day. She also wears a 3D printed ring or the "nice" Amazon $9 ring, so I think I partially lucked out.

Similar here. Our engagement/wedding rings we bought together. Since we have a coming Bank account it anyway doesn't matter who pays. Making a nice surprise is of course always nice, but that doesn't need to be materially valuable.

For us, we are designing her "real ring" ourselves to either make or have made, but its very modest and more about the band design. We are very outdoorsy so that drives simplicity, too. Personally I have a cheap silicon ring, and love it since it barely feels like I have anything on.
