So what state has the cheapskates? Residents of Alaska and North Dakota don't plan to spend anything on Valentine's Day. Maine residents are expecting to spend less than $10. Residents say they plan to spend $9.67 this year.

This survey shows the average spending for Valentine's Day is $33.64. I guess that could cover a box of chocolates and maybe a movie?

The National Retail Federation shows Americans spent more than $27 billion dollars on Valentine's Day last year which was up from $20.7 billion in 2019.
