Valentines Day vs Valentines week

As the v-day approaches all major stores are having big discounts, newspaper is full of advertisements for parties to be held at hotels, pubs and discs..
The other day on second or third page of TOI there was a full page archies ad informing about the valentines week..with each day being given a different name.. like rose day, teddy day, hugs day, kiss day........
It seemed so funny! These companies are marketing and playing with feelings..
They set such high expectations...Imagine giving or receiving gifts or cards everyday according to the day prescribed...
I am not if I am able to cleary state my point of view here..
But do we really need such over hype on things like this???i agree v-day does have a significance..but a v-week.............
Surely that sounded a new, higly over rated concept to me!!
