Those willing to spend their money on February 14 will typically spend around £39, although 7 per cent of them are willing to pay between £91 and £100.

Nearly a fifth (18 percent) of respondents said they thought Valentine's Day was over-commercialized.

But one in twelve (8 percent) said they loved the occasion because it gives them an excuse to be romantic – and 3 percent even said it was their favorite day of the year.
