Men might find themselves in trouble if they give their lover this economy brand Valentine's card - it costs just 7p.

The cut price, recession-beating love token from Asda even features the supermarket's Smart Price logo on the cover in a heart.



Cheekily, the message inside reads My love for you is priceless!



On the front are the words Be My Valentine and the card even features Asda's famous green colours.



The cheap card is available in the supermarket's 300 stores and for 7p they will even throw in a red envelope.



Anyone who wants to hedge their bets for February 14th can send six of the cards for the cost of a first-class stamp.



The cards have soared in popularity on the money saving internet forums, www.hotukdeals.com, hiting a staggering 2,262 degrees on the website's 'temperature gauge'.

Question: What do you think about this card?
 
Come on, how expensive could a valentine card be? If you buy at the right time probably not much. Not like they're asking you for a kidney.

I'm not into commercialism, money is an expression of love, etc. But if you really cared you would spend a couple dollars for a decent, quality card.
 
If a guy gave me this then he better not let the door hit him in his arse on his way out! I'd rather have a card that a guy made for me himself and I bet it would look a heck of a lot better than this cheap card!
 
Blimey that is a bit cheap

besides we have lots of Tesco's around here not Asda's. Wonder if they do a 7p card

What a cheap looking card. I bet I won't give my girlfriend or secret admirer that card especially when it has Asda's logo on it

Wish I could be a fly on the wall when a receiver of this card opens it!

I don't understand the concept of a valentine's card to begin with. How's that in any way not a cheap, unoriginal gift? =/ I don't think I've ever heard someone irl who gave their partner a card for valentine.
