They say that the economy is picking up, but the fact remains that a lot of us are still struggling. Many of us are still struggling hard to get by after being laid off from our jobs. Looking on the bright side, you've got more spare time to spend with your partner. But on the other hand, you don't have the cash to do much with that time.
Having said that, you do not have to let a lack of money keep you from having fun - or even from dating! There are plenty of ways to date on the cheap without looking cheap.
Finding a unique yet inexpensive date will give you the chance to spend time with your partner or with a new crush that you're just getting to know. And the best thing? You may find these five low-cost date alternatives are a lot more fun than the standard dinner and movie!
1. Take A Trip To The Museum
Check out your local museums; you may be surprised to find that they have free admission at certain times.
Visiting the Art Museum is a great way to get to know someone and compare your likes and dislikes with each other, and in the process, understand each other better.
2. Hanging Out At The Local Park
If you like to get a little exercise, there are always a variety of activities to take part in at your nearby park. Rollerblading or cycling are fun activities for everyone; Alternatively, you may just want to hang out on a blanket with a picnic and maybe throw a Frisbee around.
3. Dinner And Movie At Home
With the current technology that's available for home theater systems, watching a DVD at home can actually be a better experience than going to the cinema. Even better, you get to snuggle under a blanket on the couch with some homemade kettle corn.
4. Go For A Walk
This is a great weekend idea, especially if you live near an interesting part of town. You can walk around exploring your neighborhood or visit a local art fair. You know those couples you see walking along window shopping and holding hands? Be one of them!
5. Go to One of Those Parties You Always Turn Down
Between all your work friends and college buddies, odds are that someone you know will be throwing a party or cookout this weekend. For the price of a covered dish and a bottle of wine, you've got a whole day or evening of fun! Plus, your friends get to meet him, too!
