Frugal flowers for Valentine's day

You don't have to pay $$$$$ for flowers for your Hunny on Valentine's Day. It's easy to get lovely, quality flowers for a price that keeps something in your wallet for Feb. 15 and beyond.

For your blooms, try your local grocery store. Aldi has flowers for $3.99/bunch. Put 2 or 3 together for a showstopper bouquet.

Or try your local farmer's market. In my town, you can pick up gorgeous bouquets at the farmer's market for way less than a florist's V-day mark-up.

Once you have your flowers, visit your local thrift store for a kickin' vase. Like these (especially the cute curvy one in the center):



The price:




Yes, that says $1.99. Can't beat that!
