CVS has a great variety of items for Valentines day from luxury bath robes and designer fragrances, to gadgets, electronics, plush animals, chocolates, cards and more, CVS/pharmacy has something for everyone.

What is the Innopad?  Well it's a learning tablet for kids aged 4 - 9.  It does just about everything, it's pretty amazing.  They can play games, read e-books which in turn teach them the skills they need to learn in order to read themselves, it has an Art Studio, which I know my girls will LOVE, it has an MP3 player, video player, calendar, alarm clock, notepad,...
