Valentine’s Day is just a few days away and with so many couples time-strapped because of working from home and also having to home school children, many have forgotten about the loved up day and they may find themselves dishing out more money on last minute purchases and paying the Love Tax.
Airtasker, which connects people who need work done with people who want work, has compared the cost of various items including flowers, chocolate and gift hampers specifically for Valentine’s Day and found on average consumers will be paying around £40 Valentine’s Day ‘tax’ in inflated costs in light of the holiday – which is one serious ‘love tax’.*
Here to help Brits plan more efficiently (save them time) and connect them with a person who can work to their budget and requirements, Airtasker can aid in anything from contact-free gift delivery to planning a virtual date. Better yet going to a local click & collect florist to grab flowers or running into a local supermarket to collect the makings of a dinner (and of course a box of chocolates). We’re all time deprived these days so every bit of time saving can help us even with the smallest of tasks.
