According to a new survey by the wholesale trade printing company 4over, New Jersey topped the list of Valentine’s day procrastinators. I know when it comes to buying any kind of gift I like to wait because I’m concerned I might find something better. Sometimes I just don’t know what to buy, so I am surely a contributor to Jersey’s ranking. One of the reasons we received this honor was that Jersey has the most Google searches for last minute Valentine’s Day gift ideas.
So here’s the top 5 states with people who will be shopping at a gas station on February 14th…
#5 Virginia
Isn’t Virginia for lovers? Maybe not.
