A spa day

A star map
A framed sky from a night that matters to you, with a short line underneath. Order a week ahead. Around $25-60.

A tea, chocolate or small-gift calendar for the run-up. Around $20-80.
An experience voucher
A voucher her can redeem for a day out, from a provider such as Virgin Experience Days. Around $40-200.

A soft scarf
A wool or cashmere scarf in a colour from her wardrobe. Around $30-120.

A stack of envelopes, each labelled for a moment: open when you miss me, when you need a laugh, when you cannot sleep. It costs little.
Shopping for your fiancée in San Francisco
In San Francisco, gift shoppers head to Union Square, Hayes Valley, Valencia Street and the Ferry Building Marketplace.
The city is small and hilly, so walking between shops adds up; use the streetcar or a ride, and order online for anything bulky.
Buying for your fiancée
A gift for your fiancée can look ahead as well as back. Mark the engagement with something that points to the wedding or the life you are building.
Keep a budget in mind, because wedding costs add up quickly.
If you are shopping at the last minute
Flowers, spa vouchers and a personalized game can be arranged online the same day. An oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment, so it can wait until Christmas Eve. Pair one with a wrapped card and she still has something to open.
Wrap something small to open on the day itself. A game or letter can sit under the tree as a card even though it is a digital gift.
A gift that does not depend on San Francisco
An oin game does not depend on where she lives. It is emailed to you, usually within an hour, as a private link that works in any browser in San Francisco or anywhere else. The final level you can play today is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan; New York and Tokyo are coming soon.
Where can I get a last-minute Christmas gift for my fiancée in San Francisco?
Browse Union Square, Hayes Valley, Valencia Street and the Ferry Building Marketplace, or order something that arrives the same day: flowers, spa vouchers and a personalized game. The city is small and hilly, so walking between shops adds up; use the streetcar or a ride, and order online for anything bulky.
Can I send my fiancée in San Francisco a digital gift?
Yes. A digital gift reaches her instantly wherever she is. An oin game is generated automatically and emailed to you, usually within an hour, as a private link that works in any browser; flowers are an even quicker option.
Does oin have a final level set in San Francisco?
Not at the moment. Today the final level is set in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and New York and Tokyo are coming soon. The game itself can still be sent to anyone in San Francisco as a link.
