"It's been three hours. She must have had a flat tire or something..."

Valentine’s Day–that brilliantly conceived, manufactured holiday that pressures those in love to financially demonstrate their mutual affection. Many couples are secure enough to keep it low-key, but for those who feel the pressure to shower their companion with high-cost expenditures, let us present a low-cost alternative–Valentine’s dining at White Castle.

As recapped by AOL DailyFinance, lovebirds can share an intimate table covered with a red plastic tablecloth and topped with faux flowers, receive a free dessert and a photo op. So make the required reservations, and treat that special someone to a pile of sliders and onion breath. Your partner will either swoon in your cute creativity or send you packing. Hey, if your date doesn’t appreciate your fine taste in cuisine, they’re not worth your time, anyway.
