Anybody who buys roses for St. Valentine’s Day tomorrow knows that it is one of the busiest days of the year for florists. If you have any doubt, you can observe the power of supply and demand on the price of a dozen roses. And candy stores and card shops are equally happy to see St. Valentine’s Day arrive. But, private detectives???
According to this story at StartupJournal it appears to be the case:
Art League…had been trying for weeks to catch a client’s husband cheating, but it wasn’t until Feb. 14 that the evidence surfaced. After tailing the man to an office parking lot, Mr. League spied him placing a card on another car before driving away. Mr. League swiped the card — which was festooned with hearts and professed true love — and surreptitiously videotaped the woman who later showed up frantically looking for it. He presented the card and the video to his client, and the case was closed.
“It’s a good holiday for business,” Mr. League says. The Greensboro, N.C., gumshoe has already scheduled five infidelity investigations for Tuesday, and plans to add two part-time sleuths to his staff of four to handle the demand.
