Faculty, students discuss motivations behind increased Valentine’s Day spending
This year, Valentine’s Day was all about pink hearts, red roses and a record $29.1 billion in spending, according to the National Retail Federation (NRF). The holiday often comes at a cost to couples, but studies show that spending per person is only increasing. The NRF found that spending per person is expected to increase by about 6% from 2025 to 2026. Some question whether such a large outlay is necessary for a holiday centered on love.
