Valentine’s Day is a stupid holiday. Who'll believe your “I
Love You” Mylar balloon on February 14 if you ignore them the rest of the year? On
the other hand, forgetting Valentine’s Day may not be your best strategy. If you
want to show someone you care but don’t want to spend $50+ for roses, here are
a few less expensive ideas: Wake up early and make breakfast. If you’re a
terrible cook, make a bagel-and-cream-cheese run. Compliment their appearance.
(Warning: saying “You look great today” doesn’t fly if you don’t actually LOOK
at them.) Surprise them with a clean car or a full gas tank.
Watch TV together; whatever THEY want to see,
just once without complaining. Take an interest in something they’re passionate
about. Frame and display a nice photo of the two of you. Compose a facebook
status about how amazing they are. Make a card. Use crayons, scissors and glue,
stickers, glitter, the whole nine yards!
