We all know that Valentine’s Day is a manufactured holiday that gets people to spend money and time in a pretty inorganic manner, but everyone reacts differently to it. Some find it romantic and thrilling; others find it irritating and trite. But one thing’s for sure, there are always going to be couples who have their own V-Day personalities and traditions. Do you know any of these?

These are V-Day’ers that take the holiday super seriously. It’s Christmas part two: time to bust out the credits cards and go just a little further into sweet, sweet debt! They’ll have no problem showing how much they care for each other with both paper and plastic.
