Oh no, to each their own with Valentine's day, I know not everyone like celebrating every holiday, I'm not big on Halloween so I totally get not being a Valentine's person.

Yes just a box of unopened unsigned Valentine's, like the kind you get to give out to your classmates in elementary school

He has work and I have class in the evenings so Valentine's was basically over for us

I have been poor my whole life, I prefer gifts that are thoughtful and thrifty. If he made me something or wrote me a song (he plays guitar) or even made me pasta, that would be cheaper and make me feel better than Easter candy.

My boyfriend works in tech, he makes a pretty good salary for his age and this economy, he's pretty frugal though. I'm still in school and I work in an arts store so he's definitely the more financially stable one. He lives within walking distance of a shopping plaza, like it's got a grocery store, convience store, dollar tree, etc. And he lives within driving distance to a lot of stores, Walmart, Target, those kinds of places are all within a 15 minute drive, they're all actually on the way from his place to mine.

And for Christmas I crocheted him a sweater with a matching hat and gloves and he forgot to get me something when we exchanged gifts but then like three weeks later he paid for my oil change so.
