Need a lift for Valentine's day?

This year's Valentine's Day will see Viagra offered over the counter for the very first time.

Boots has announced that the trial scheme will be introduced to three branches in Manchester, allowing men to purchase the anti-impotence drug without a prescription from the doctor.

According to the Sexual Dysfunction Association, ten per cent of men in the UK will have recurring erection problems at some point during their lifetime.

Despite this, the revolutionary drug has previously only been available to those willing to see a doctor for a prescription. The new offering from Boots will allow men to check in for a private consultation with a pharmacist who will examine the individual's medical history. Tests will be conducted to ascertain blood pressure, glucose levels and cholesterol before four Viagra pills are sold for £50.

All men between the ages of 30 and 65 who are suffering from erectile dysfunction will qualify for the new service, which could pave the way for similar arrangements elsewhere in the UK.

So instead of chocolates in a box, you can put your d*ck in a box for your sweety.
