     Consumers will be digging deeper into their pockets to buy flowers, gift cards and choco lates on
Valentine's Day with average spending expected to rise eight percent over last year to nearly $200.
     And along with their expanding wallets,4 million Americans are expected to propose marriage or
receive a proposal on Feb 14.
     "We've seen a consistent trend of consumers saying they will spend more,from holiday shopping to
2012 travel plans,and spending plans for Feb 14 are no exception,"said Sonali Chakravorti,vice president at American Express.
     In its latest spending and savings tracker,American Express questioned 2,000 adults across the United States to gauge(测量,估计)how much and on what consumers will be spending their money on Cupid's(爱神)big day.
     Nearly half of people said they intend to celebrate at a favori te restaurant, seven percent more than
last year. Flowers are still the most popular gift for a Valentine,followed hy gift cards,jewelry and
electronics.
     Among couples getting betrothed(汀婚),30 percent said they wou]d propose during a weekend
getaway or vacation. To seal the deal,48 percent of people think an engagement ring costing between
$1,000 to $5,000 would be appropriatc but 22 percent said up to $2,000 for jewelry would be more
realistic,while five percent thought nothing of spending$10,000 or more on a ring.
     Although nearly 40 percent of women think whoever asked for the date should pay for it,14 Dercent
said the bill should be split,but most unmarried men said they would cover the cost of the date.
      Finances can be a delieate subject,so half of people don't talk about money until they have been
together six months and 20 percent of married coupies did not refer to the subject until after they have
tied the knot.
     After marriage money matters can be a cause of disagreements,although the poll showed arguments
over household budgets,spending on the children and everyday purchases have declined since last year.
