I can tell my love how much I love her, everyday, but on Feb 14th, they jack up the prices of flowers and card prices are NUTZ... The companies have us buy the NUTZ.

Buy them in advance and just give them to her when they are dead, or try to explain to her that she just isnt worth the extra price they put on them. And PLEASE videotape her reaction :)

It's all supply and demand my friend. They know that you'll pay, so they can charge more for "peak" seasons.

Yeah around here a dozen roses on the 14th start at about 80 dollars, really though that is so played out, do something original instead of just getting the standard candy and roses and I'm sure she would appreciate it.

hehe, That brings to mind out the candy companies jump ship and stamp everything to "This may contain Nuts".. Why does a plain ol choco marshmellow candy have a nut allergy warning? Simple. Take no account for your quality control in your manufacturing plants, and stick on a label to avoid a law suit. If they don't know what is in the product, how the heck can I?????
