Chocolate Melts but Memories Don't This Valentine's Day
92% of Women Pick Quality Time with Spouse Over Traditional Gifts
CHICAGO, Feb. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- If you're a husband who is still wondering what to get your wife this Valentine's Day, Sittercity.com has the answer. A recent Sittercity poll found that women want to be whisked away on Valentine's Day, which falls on a Sunday this year. The overwhelming majority of women who responded said they wanted a romantic weekend getaway (46 percent) or dinner at a nice restaurant (45 percent), leaving the traditional gift of chocolate and flowers in a distant third (8 percent).
What this tells us is that, in order to fulfill loved ones' wishes, babysitters are going to be in high demand this Valentine's Day.
