Anyone else Happy to not have to worry about Valentines day?

That's so they have plenty of time to think about present ideas, cake and practice theyre fake "what? its your birthday! today!!?" faces

 

ROFL. How sweet! Sounds like a great work environment.

 

Aye, but I think it evens out really what with our present being much more re-usable than flowers

 

Hey, at least you don't have to try out 10 pairs of flowers in 5 dressing rooms before picking one!

I like the kitschiness of this little feast.

It's an excuse to give kitsch and totally useless little gifts!

Haha yeah it's good, guess that's a perk of the job - the brotherhood

Hahah yeah there is that too!

(though I still think sitting outside changing rooms holding shopping bags waiting for your girl with the other dudes doing the same is a pretty taxing gig )

Ha, true. Damn, seems like we're all even again!

The only thing I worry about on Valentines Day is making sure I scope out the best places for half off chocolates the day/week afterward.

 

I stock up and either pig out myself, or hand them out to friends/family.

That reminds me... I wonder if there are after Valentine's Day lingerie sales...

 

 

Anyone here up to speed on that? I have a friend who regularly shops at Victoria's Secret (she's a former model and likes dressing up a lot). A couple of times I tagged along with her when she got her discount coupons... that was fun... but I'm thinking of something nearer term.

 

 

I was also thinking about having some boudoir or pin-up style photos taken soon. Just for myself to have and show someone special someday.

 

 

I'm in pretty killer shape these days and want to capture that moment in time

I didn't notice any here, not sure about where you live. It makes sense, though - chocolates and flowers are perishable, so they have to get rid of them quickly and slash the prices. Lingerie can keep until they decide to overhaul their stock (usually during Boxing Day or Black Friday).
