    Are there any other single people in Waterford? I am not looking forward to valentines day and was wondering if there was anyone else who would like to join on this most horrid day!:eek:

    The only people who will be genuinely happy on Valentines day is florists, restaraunts, Hallmark etc.

    Its a joke of a day that just takes money out of your pocket.

    I'm in a relationship and will not be doing anything for it.

    My partner feels the exact same as why go out for dinner on the 14th just because the florists/hallmark people as mossy said brainwash you into doing it:confused:

    You are missing nothing and if anything are saving loads of money:D

    I send my gf flowers through out the year, I don't need a certain day to do it where I have to pay more!

    I bargain with my florist to give it to me at the usual price. Not paying over the top just for the one day. Rip Off.

    Im a deise lad exiled in Dublin here and ya think Waterford is bad for ripping you off, Dublin is bloody nuts..

    I know guys who pay €120+ for a dozen roses and then they have the cheek to charge €15 delivery charge.. I refuse to pay anything like that..

    At least I'm single, so methinks I'll treat myself to a night on the town the following weekend..

    Anyone up for an impromtu boards beers on the sat night?? :)

    Yeah its a rip off no doubt but two things

    1, if you're single just ignore it,Its a midweek day so likelyhood is you'll be working anyway.

    2, Even if you are in a relationship and are intending of purchasing whatever on valentines day,stop moaning money isn't everything like.:)
