NBC News--A new report says consumers aren't quite ready to shell out the big bucks for their loved ones this year.

The 2013 Valentine's spending survey shows only a slight increase in expected sales this year with the average person planning to spend just over $130.  Last year, Americans spent $126.  Overall spending on Valentine's Day will reach approximately 18 billion dollars.

Both traditional and non-traditional gifts will be popular again this year.
