Retailer's worried about the effects of the economy on their Valentine's Day sales may have a reason to breathe a little easier.

More surprising is the fact that women may actually plan to spend more money this year.

Thanks for posting this. As a retailer, it's nice to hear that sales might not be completely down the tubes. I can make up a 2% drop. It's not fun, but it's a lot better than what I was expecting the forecasts to be.
ReplyDeleteThis is surprising but good news. Money spent means jobs.
