As some of you
may know I am at university which means I am a student, therefore I don’t have
much money at all. However, there are plenty of things you can do with that
special someone for little money and still have fun. Some people may think
going out and doing things will always cost money so continue to stay in and
just watch tv most nights. Don’t get me wrong I love sitting with someone doing
nothing, watching things and generally can find it relaxing. Though sometimes
it is good to mix it up and get out of the house for a bit.
1.
Trip to the beach
I love the
beach so much and being there I can find it so relaxing, strolling across the
beach bare footed with someone special is something I love to do. Once you’re
you don’t have to spend any money, just enjoy each other’s company in a new
environment.
2.
A picnic
You can take
your favourite food anywhere with a blanket and go sit on the beach, a field,
the park or anywhere which is a perfect couple of hours to get to know someone
or just nap.
3. Cute little Walk
3. Cute little Walk
Fresh air, fun
and getting to know each other, not to mention its free.
4.
Star gazing
A little bit
cheesy, but grab a blanket and go lie down somewhere and just look up and stare
at the stars. Appreciate what you have and how amazing something is so far
away, take a snack and just chill.
5.
Baking
Once you get
into it and decide on something delicious to make, it can take up a whole
afternoon just having fun making something whether its successful or not.
Buying cheap ingredients to make a cake or something isn’t much at all and then
you have it in the cupboard for a rainy day.
6.
Homemade Dinner
You don’t have
to do the making together, just cook your other half a three-course meal and
you can stick to something easy if you don’t feel confident at cooking. The
thought and effort will go such a long day and hopefully they will really
appreciate it.
7.
Pudding
Seem to be
sticking to the food theme quite a bit, nonetheless everyone eats so anyone can
enjoy it. If you’ve got a bit of a sweet tooth this is perfect, just treat
yourself with a really tasty pudding. Even better on a cold day or night,
tucked under a duvet all warm and snuggly, listening to music just eating
something yummy.
8.
Cinema
Getting out the
house to see something new, not even having to speak to each other much if
you’re tired from a long day yet still spending time together.
9.
Camp for a Night
This depends if
you don’t mind sleeping in a tent, as it is not for everyone. Going to a cheap
campsite for a night or even in a field or the garden. Getting away from
technology to just spend time with each other cuddling. Make a fire, have a few
marshmallows, bring all your own food and it will defiantly keep to the budget.
10.
Bowling
Going bowling
whether you take it seriously or don’t can be more fun than you think as long
as you try to enjoy yourself. Doesn’t cost too much so perfect for a cute
little date.
11.
Museum Trip
So many museums
are free, going and learning new things together whilst enjoying new culture.
12.
Art Gallery
Similarly, many
art galleries are free, it’s not for everyone but worth giving it a try by
having a quick look around, especially as it’s free.
13.
Ice Skating
Going somewhere
to mess about a little, especially if you’re not very good it can be very
funny. Something to do to keep active as it can be quite tiring, if you want to
spend a little more.
14.
Wine Night
Instead of just
watching tv together or going out to drink which does add up cost wise. Just
buy some wine or alcohol you enjoy and everything will start becoming pretty
funny after a while. Even get a board game out which is so much fun with
alcohol and certainly isn’t that competitive as your drunk.
15.
Workout Class
Go to the local
gym and do a class together, you’ll feel good after from all the endorphins,
generally a healthy thing to do together and is more motivating to go together.
Doesn’t have to be full on or make you want to die after its over if you don’t
normally workout, I’ve just been to a yoga or meditation class with someone
which I found enjoyable.
16.
Couples Dinner Party
At the moment,
I don’t think I am mature enough to put on a whole dinner party, however people
I know will and it is a great idea. Making all the food with your other half,
many people enjoy making new food and recipes and even better to share with
other people. Sharing the night with some friends where you can play games all
night and just have a little bit of fun.
17.
Making a Cosy Den
Doesn’t always
have to be classy or a lot of effort put it. Grab all your fairy lights and
place them all around the living room and light some candles. Put all your
duvets and cosy blankets on the sofa, if you want to get some sheets and pin
them up to make a bit of a den to get extra cosy. Buy loads of snacks, get into
your comfy clothes and have a Netflix binge or watch films or night.
18.
Going out for Dinner
Plan a night to
go out for dinner, dress up a little and make some effort for each other.
Depending on your budget there is Wagamamas, Nandos, YoSushi and Ask if you
don’t plan to spend too much. Then if you want to spend a little more Jamie’s
Italian, Giraffe, Bella Italia and Byron.
19.
Site Seeing/Being a Tourist
Get a cheap
train or bus ticket to the next city or somewhere new and go and explore. Just
have a look around and get lost in a new place, there will be plenty of things
to see providing its somewhere nice or near a harbour, then grab a cheap lunch
at a café.
Last
but not least as it is one of my favourites..
20.
Pamper Night
Have a relaxed
night in, get together all your face products, pluck each other’s eyebrows. Do
face masks, run an amazing bath with candles, bath bombs, salts and radox. Show
him how to moisturise, exfoliate and convince him to give you a shoulder
massage. Put fresh sheets on your bed and put on new pyjamas, getting all
snuggly and the whole night will just give you the best feeling.
