Valentine’s Day is just around the corner (it’s the 14th of February for those that need reminding), but we’re on the peak of a double-dip recession. So what’s a fellow to do when he’s skint, but absolutely must follow the crummy traditions of a Hallmark Holiday? How about a 7p Valentine’s Day card? That’s sure to do the trick.
Nothing says “I love you” more than splashing a whole 7p on your beloved, and she’ll thank you for it I’m sure – especially as ASDA has slapped a nice big Smart Price logo in the middle of it.
It might just be a blatant PR stunt by the cut-price veg crusaders, but I’m almost tempted to try it just to see what reaction I’d get. Probably not worth the pain and suffering I’d have to put up with for the next year though, or the diamond-shaped hole in my wallet that’d be needed to dig myself out of it. [AOL]








Nice to see the art of romance is not dead.
My wife and I are cheap deal horders, in a weird way she would absolutely love this lol…we tend to mock the Valentines day institution, so this will do nicely!
You need to get your arse down to poundland then; lots of stuff there for errr £1.
Strange but true: A poundland opened in december around here, and took over £20,000 on its opening day. People were queuing up for it to open. Not only that, they also sell stuff 2 or 3 for a pound. So 7p for the card, then £1 to buy a set of bath salts… Valentines day is sorted!
Someone has finally designed a card that fits my needs, cheap and full of mocking for a made up holiday.
7p – what a rip-off! Why not go to work and print your own for free! http://www.tescovaluecards.com
It’s not even red or pink! Unforgivable!!
That’ll cost you extra
