Ms. Ho My Phuong, who has been selling Valentine gifts for the past 3 years on Ho Tung Mau Street, Vinh City, said that her stall opened on February 12, but because it coincided with the Lunar New Year, there were fewer customers than in previous years. According to Ms. Phuong, like previous years, the number of customers peaked on the evening of February 13. On the evening of February 13 last year, her stall was open until 11 p.m. to serve customers' needs. Photo: Chu Thanh

Not only chocolate, accompanying gifts such as bears and flowers are also the choice of many young people. Ms. Mai Anh, owner of a teddy bear shop on Nguyen Van Cu Street, said that usually the shop closes on the 27th and 28th of Tet to give employees a day off. However, this year because Valentine's Day falls on the 29th of Tet, the shop is open until the end of the day. Depending on the size, each bear in the shop costs from a few hundred to a million VND.
