Americans are expected to shell out nearly $19 billion, averaging more than $142 per consumer (NRF), while the recent trend for buying smart tech for your Valentine could push these predictions towards $20 billion.  "Traditional Valentine's Day gifts will always be a top choice, but the last couple of years have shown increased tech deals being offered by retailers during these holiday sales events," stated FatWallet spokesperson, Brent Shelton. "FatWallet members will take full advantage of stores offering increased cash back and bonus gift cards to make iphones, iPads and other electronics more affordable gifts for their loved ones."

As wireless tech trends higher on Valentine's wish lists, top stores are responding with seasonal electronics deals on cell phones, tablets, wireless headphones and even laptops and HDTVs. One of the most popular offers on FatWallet, as of Monday, features Best Buy offering new iPhone 6 deals for $0 down for qualified buyers. "Our sister company, Ebates, just released a survey that reports 4 in 10 say smartphones are their Valentine's gift of choice this year," continued Shelton. "This goes hand in hand with recent February shopping trends and pricing on electronics, creating the perfect storm for shoppers to find great savings on tech products during Valentine's sales."
