5 Ways to Appreciate Your Valentine Without Breaking the Bank

Valentine's Day doesn't have to mean roses and candy, when there are so many other ways to celebrate.

Even before the pandemic, I was never really a 'give me roses for Valentine's Day' kind of person. Don't get me wrong, I love flowers. But I know they're expensive this time of year. Plus, I'd rather get flowers spontaneously, rather than on a day when my partner feels obligated to buy them. For my part, I have a hard time coming up with something other than just a card to give my husband for Valentine's Day. Guys are tough to buy for, so I tried to think of some non-traditional ideas, that men and women alike can do to show their Valentine that they're appreciated.
