5 Inexpensive Date Ideas

In This Article:


Take a walk to the nearest city or nature area

To start off, this one is free. Taking a walk to your nearest big city or nature area can be really relaxing, just to talk and catch up with whoever you're spending a date with. There are many things to see and do on the way as well. You can stop at local stores or get a coffee for the road. The fresh air will do ya good.

Ice Cream shop

There are local ice cream shops in every city. It would cost less than $10 for both people, and who doesn't love an ice cream cone on a warm spring day?! Sit outside and catch up with your friends, family, or significant other and enjoy the nice weather while it lasts.

Beach

If it's really warm in your town, head to the beach! This is fun if you go with a big group of people and bring music and snacks, and hang out all day. It's also fun to go with your significant other and relax and spend quality time together. Or, you could walk along the beach at night and watch the sunset!

$5 Movie Tuesday/Thursdays

Who doesn't love a movie day?! Spend those rainy/cold Tuesdays and Thursdays indoors, at the movie theater! There are always good movies coming out and it's fun to go to a movie theater every once and awhile. The movie theaters near me also have the recliner chairs; those are a game changer!

Binge a Netflix series

Who doesn't LOVE a free date, in bed, with snacks...... I don't know anyone! Make some popcorn, get your favorite ice cream, and binge a new TV series on Netflix, or even better, a movie series. I've been loving Gossip Girl and The Office. This date is underrated!


I hope you try out some of those date ideas and enjoy the spring weather!

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
