Valentine's day is a marketing scheme to overcharge for themed candies and other miscellaneous items, like flowers, cards, balloons, and pre-written poems in an effort for people to "connect" with their partner. This day causes a lot of traffic to dollar stores, convenience stores, and other fine retailers you may locally find. In conclusion, though this day may cause lovers to feel special or some false emotion, if you think about it, this could be made as a plot to make massive amounts of money in general. If you read this all, you're awesome, and I'm sorry if I might've ruined your view on this holiday.
