You're right! - maybe I should stop being so cheap and just go out there today and pay the full price :m_adore:

the thing is if I can wait just one day I will get it at 50% off (I must have a thrifty gene I inherited from my Dad)

This place looks very good (but also quite pricey):

If you express love every day and pepper that with other acts of kindness, it takes a lot of pressure off of Valentines Day.

Still doesn't hurt to pick up a card or flowers or something in your spare time today.
Thanks - I guess I should do that for my son (since he is between girlfriends at the moment).

Just don't make it anonymous. My grandma, very cool lady, sent me a Valentine card when I was in college. She didn't sign it. I wasn't going out with anyone in the college, and I was pondering with real curiosity which of my classmates might've sent me that. I laughed when she told me it was her, but my mirth was hollow.

I like Valentine's day...Except, I think that one should send flowers any time of year and not just on Valentine's day. Just because you love that person.
My last girlfriend and I had a casual agreement that we wouldn't acknowledge Valentine's Day, at least not in the traditional sense, and I made a point to spoil her all through the year. She said she preferred getting the unexpected instead of the expected, it made it spontaneous and that much more special.

Did he forget for two years to tell you he was married, or did he forget to tell you that was was married for two years?
He lied for two years..... I'd ask if he had gotten married yet, and twice he told me no. He finally told me after their daughter was born.....but only because I told him I knew. I was and still am pissed at him. We've been friends since we were 13. He's such a dork.
