There used to be a little card and gift shop around the corner from my home. A friend of mine worked there on weekends. She loved to tell stories about working on the day before, or the day of, a holiday like Valentine's Day.
The store would be packed with people--and ninety-nine percent of them would be men. 
"Women shop ahead for these things," she told me. "But guys are there right at the last minute, grabbing the biggest, shiniest card they can find. They don't care what the card says, as long as it's big and shiny. Glitter helps too. Guys always think girls like glitter."
As my teenager would say, "Don't be THAT GUY."
Fortunately, you've got Two Whole Days before it's time to come through with some flowers, candy and a romantic card. And that's plenty of time when you have the Internet to help you shop--and FedEx or FTD to be your delivery boy.
COUPON TIME
You're secret's safe with me. I won't tell that you waited until the last minute OR that you got a great deal. And don't skimp on the glitter.
