Valentine's Day is only a few hours away, perhaps you have already bought your Valentine a special gift? If you are still in need of some inspiration, here are a few ideas of what the retailers in London offers their romantic customers.
Waitrose is offering their romantic shoppers a three course dinner for £10 and you can also pick up a Valentine's brunch for £5 - what a bargain! M&S has increased their dinner offer from £10 to £20 but you will not only get a three course meal for two, but also a rose and a bottle of pink cava, wow!! I thought the M&S store in Marble Arch looked lovely with all the pink Valentine's promotions in the store (see pictures in the attachment).
Selfridges "Love 2 Love U" offers love bites for "buy one get one free" - What a great value if you have more than one Valentine.... I did write a love note on a heart shaped sticker on the love wall in the stationery department which is a fun charity initiative to encourage the shopper to make a donation and raise awareness of Crossroads (pictures of the love wall is in the presentation attached).
Other promotions that I saw were, Argos and Ernest Jones are running a "save up to half price" promotion on gifts for Valentine's day, it is very clear that value is now something that we as shoppers expect and take for granted. Body Shop offers a free gift of your choice, when you spend more than £20 in the store. If you are thinking of buying a lovely bottle of perfume for your loved one or perhaps to treat yourself, head off to Boots because they are currently offering their bottles of lovely smelly perfume for 1/2 price off and at Debenhams there is a 10% offer of all fragrances for a limited time only.
The presentation attached is including adverts from the UK papers and photos of Valentine's promotions from retailers in London, Chicago and Sydney.
Happy Valentine's
