I ran into a floral shop today because I needed one single red rose. But I walked out with a substitute. Today was the day that the price of roses skyrocked just in time for Valentine's Day. The florist quoted $16.99 for ONE rose. This explains the $75-$100/dozen that roses cost at Valentine's Day.
There are other ways to express love for that special someone. Think outside the chocolates, roses, and the card. Is there a restaurant that has a special meaning? What about a movie that you know that special someone would appreciate? Think about your loves desires and plan accordingly. Yes, plan! Get a sitter for the kids, make reservations, order your gifts as soon as possible, and remember why you love them.
You have one more week to make Valentine's Day special!
