ok, now heres a thought for all those poor misguided souls who actualy belive in valentines day and spending loads of money on gifts for their loved one(s)

VALENTINES DAY IS A CELEBRATION OF LOVE IN ALL ITS FORMS. this includes parental and family love, romantic love, and of course SELF LOVE or ego.

the most important thing about valentines is that you realise it is not just about gifts and candy....err that is lollies to us aussies......celebrate valentines every day, let the ones you love KNOW that you love them.....

so if your a dumb ass like me a sweet note in a lunch bag or a flower (even a pretty looking weed) picked from the yard makes a person feel more loved than a valentines gift on one set day in the year.

Well, I think that if you are broke, you both should have stuck to the agreement and the predominant reason not to would be guilt. and proactive retaliation. Your idea was excellent and yeah, much more meaningful than chocolates. cheers!

I know, I hate Valentine's Day. Don't get me started.
