Valentine's Day is such a rip off yet we buy into it every time. Roses cost three times as much as on a normal day. Restaurants raise their prices and their snootiness. Expectations all round are high and tension mounts. After the first blush of romance, we tend to pass the whole thing off as greedy commercialism. But heaven help us if, on the day, we do not profess undying love in some way or another.
May I recommend a different tactic. This time around, bypass the obvious, save a lot of money and do something that is much closer to the heart. Give each other t-shirts. Ones that demonstrate love, of course. That are real and simple and not all flash and bling. And that will be enjoyed long after the 14th of February. Which will be round sooner than you can say "I love you" so best you begin your online shopping now. Of course, if there is nothing you see here that takes your fancy, why not make your own! I can't vouch for how pretty they will be, but they will certainly be more personal. Either way, best you hurry.
