Valentine’s Day – The Early Shopper Gets the Goods (and good deals!)

Ok, I will admit that I am a major television addict in the mornings, as far as news programs go. I was never a coffee person, but I had to get my tv fix. I have been a watcher of the Today Show since high school, though I have to say that the new guy on CBS (Chris Wragge) is not too bad to look at! But I digress………..

I was getting my usual morning fix today when there was a segment about ideas for Valentine’s Day gifts. Now, to be truthful some more, I really do not buy gifts for anyone; I try to remember to make little gift bags of stuff for the kids (think Target Dollar Spot) and I will from time to time get the husband a gift (often a gift certificate for us to go out to dinner). But then I stopped to watch this segment and not only did they have cute ideas, but they were super affordable!

Take a look at these great deals and perhaps surprise a relative or friend with a little sweet gift to say we love you and are glad you are in our lives. (Note to my children’s grandmothers: you may or may not be getting photo books – you’ll just have to wait to find out!)

Happy shopping!

(PS. Off topic, but how about this balmy 30 degree day we are having – score!)

(Oh PPS. Apparently, according to the Today Show website, some of the retailers are experiencing a high volume of traffic, so if you cannot get on, please try again – we here at Chester County Moms have no control over that, but did want to pass these great deals on to you !)
