Much as I would like to say it's love that makes the world go around, I have the feeling it's money. So how can you show your love without crippling your wallet? Let's hear what you did or plan to do to be frugal this Valentine's Day. Or maybe you're going to splash out for this special day. :)
 
Since hubby's working late tonight, I ran him a nice bath last night, put on some relaxing music then gave him a 90 minute massage after it. He slept the soundest I've ever seen him do in years! Usually he's up and down all night but not last night - he slept through entirely. He said he felt much better this morning than he has in ages and he looked well rested too. It was well worth the time and effort and all for the cost of a Suave bottle of shea butter lotion ($3 I think it was and it's excellent on his dry skin.)

We didn't do a thing. My husband doesn't believe in Valentine's Day. He says he doesn't need to have one day a year to tell me he loves me when he does it all year around. Flattery gets you everywhere LOL. I think that's just his excuse for not doing anything. No one could have had a more cheap day than us. :)
