So all of us men know what it’s like, trying to impress that lady that you’re madly in love with but with the economy you have to do it on a budget. You wonder what I can do on the cheap that can make my date as romantic and impressive as possible.
The thing is you really do not have to worry about what to do on a date because I am going to give you some useful tips and pointers on how to save money and still be romantic!
Skip Going Out to Eat
Make a romantic home dinner.
Going out to eat is always very expensive. You should skip going out to eat wherever possible and try and cook your meal for her at home. Woman love when a man will cook for them, for some reason they find it sexy.
There are many websites online where you can find some great recipes for a complete homemade dinner that you can make for fewer than 20 dollars. If you’re willing you can even learn to make your own romantic foods like cheesecakes and brownies without using pre packaged mixes to make them. Remember if you have not tried to make something before it is best for you to try to make it first before you make it for her. You don’t want to serve her a burnt nasty meal after all!
Do The Movies
Yes, I did say watch some movies – but stay home and watch them. Rent some movies from the store or even go on Hulu.com which has countless free movies to offer and find a good one to watch. There are also much discounted rent by mail companies out there such as Netflix which can offer you some great movies at a very low price.
As far as food goes, consider buying some microwave popcorn and going to the local convenience store to get your favorite movie theater treats. This way you won’t have to worry about sneaking them into the movie theater to save about fifty percent what would have to pay at the movie theater for treats.
Have Fun Outside

Consider having a nice outdoor date with outdoor activities. In the summer consider going to the beach during the sunset, going for a walk under the night sky and then cuddling and looking at the constellations as they pass over your head. In the winter you can consider going sledding together, making a snow man or even some snow angels of your favorite lovely angel that you love.
Go See a School Activity
While this may sound cheesy and juvenile schools offer many great activities these days for the communities. Drama classes put on great plays, bands play some great tunes and choirs have great choral events. If you feel like it you can even go and support the local high schools sporting team when they play as a date. Sometimes bringing back the old days of high schools is a romantic way to reminisce on the days of the past. Plus as an added side effect you’re supporting children as they go through high school.
Go For A Drive
Go for a drive, and listen to your favorite tunes. Many people find a long car trip just to go nowhere and spend time together a great romantic opportunity. At the end of your trip stop and get some chocolate ice cream or another one of your favorite treats.
Give A Good Massage
Massages are not that hard to learn and are not an expensive thing to do. Although it’s not a first date thing when you have been together for quite a long time a massage is a good way to spend some romantic intimate time together and tell that special someone you love them.
You can help set the atmosphere by lighting several candles and dimming the lighting. Soft acoustic music is often a good way to help set the mood as well. You can find several recipes online to make homemade massage oils. Different oils help with different things. Some oils help you relax, some help with muscle tension and stress while others even help set the mood for more intimate activities. Just be sure that when you start giving massages that you are comfortable with each other’s bodies and being intimate.
It Does Not Have To Be Expensive
Remember, spending quality time with a person you love or are courting does not have to be an expensive matter. Most couples just love spending quality time together and you can do that a a high school concert, sledding down a hill in the park or even just hanging around home watching some movies together. Enjoy your quality time together and have fun!
