OK...this is just annoying.
I was at the store this week and wanted to look for a Valentine for my sweet husband. I started reading through them and thought most of them were pretty lame--no great artwork or verse. I finally found one that had a nice verse--although sadly lacking in the artwork department.
I flipped it over to see the price and it was....
FIVE BUCKS!
Um, seriously?
For a small, not-great-looking card. It had no embellishments...nothing fancy. Just a very basic--and did I mention SMALL--card.
Oh for Pete's sake.
Really?
$5?
So I put it back.
Because I refuse to pay $5 for such a crummy Valentine.
So honey, if you are reading this, please know that I am not getting you a card this year.
And newsflash to the card companies....Jacking up your prices for a measly card is not a good way to restore your dwindling businesses.
I think my husband would probably appreciate $5 worth of Snickers bars instead anyway. And maybe, if I can get my act together, I might make one. But no promises.
