What I Love Best About Valentine's Day

I bet your surprised that I love anything about Valentine's Day since I am an admitted Valentine's Grinch. But there is one thing I do like, the day after when all the candy is reduced to half price.
I went to CVS to check on some of our prescriptions and there it was, 50% off. I bought two bags of Reeses hearts and one of York peppermint patties. I brought a bag over to the inlaws Thursday so now my candy bowl is just filled to the top.

@BelleStarr Roman Catholics do not need to fast and sacrifice when they reach the 65, I am over now.

@BelleStarr I think it should be a goal to save money where we can.

That is why I buy them after when they are on sale, they are still a good price.

It is never too late to check the pharmacies, sometimes they have them for weeks and eventually go to 75%

Believe it or not, I have not even eaten one piece. I am sure hubs has had some but I would rather have pink grapefruit or a Halo.

It only cost me $6 for 3 bags so I don't feel too guilty about it. But I do understand saving for something bigger.

I have to agree with you that sounds like the best part of Valentine's only not on this side of the world unfortunately.

Good thinking! What a bargain. Same thing happens at Easter and Christmas they reduce things considerably after the day! So its all around to you for a chocolate fest then!
