Even though I think Valentine's Day is a silly holiday, I still like to put together something cute to do with my boyfriend. Of course, I'd like to plan some extravagant outing for us with fancy meals and lavish presents, but let's be real -- I'm a broke college student. Over the years, we've come up with a few romantic ideas that won't break the bank!
1. Go on a hike.
Hiking is awesome, as well as free! It's a great way to experience nature and spend quality time with your love.
2. Cook dinner together.
I love cooking for my boyfriend, but we have a great time cooking together! We even split the cost of the ingredients so that its more affordable.
3. Go on a picnic.
It really doesn't get much cuter than this. You can even prepare your meal together then go on a picnic!
4. Stay in, pick a movie, and cuddle.
Cuddling and watching movies is one of my all time favorite date nights to begin with, so using it as part of my Valentine's Day plans works even better. Plus, it's free!
5. Set up a scavenger hunt.
This idea is super adorable and clever! You can decide how much you want to spend on the last clue!
Valentine's Day is always an excuse for my man and me to do something fun. And we don't have to be rich to do so!
