Seven affordable Date Ideas!

It's 4th of July weekend! Perhaps you have a 1st date planned and don't know where to take them?! Maybe you just want to go on a date with your significant other?!
But! You live within your means so can't afford dinner and a movie and the idea of another night watching tv on the couch isn't going to make for a great "date." I am here to (try to) help!

Here are seven inexpensive date ideas!!!

#7. DO SOMETHING HISTORIC; museums, memorials, city tours... obviously this one works best on a person interested in history! But it's 4th of July weekend, why not check one out?!

#6. GET WET; a beach, a pool, a slip n slide if you are young at heart, and make a day of it! Bring a cooler with water and snacks, bring suntan lotion, and just relax!

#5. OUTDOOR CONCERT; just about every city has someone performing this weekend and it's probably free. Grab some chairs, blankets, and relax listening to the music.

#4. HIT UP A ROOFTOP BAR; for the 4th this is so cool! watching fireworks from a rooftop?!Go to bar if you can spend a little or make it private if you have your own roof top. (However, make sure the roof you are on is supposed to support people! And is not slanted!)

#3. HOST A BAR-B-Q; For a group date atmosphere. You provide the space and maybe some snacks but make it pot luck or just say bring your own drinks and thing to grill. You are with friends, having fun, but didn't have to pay for all the food.

#2. BONFIRE; This could go along with the bar-b-q or be private. I'll be hanging with my hubby tonight doing this! Fire permit, chairs, bottle of wine, and the romantic atmosphere of a bonfire.
Ahhhh, summer.

#1. PICNIC; A little cliche maybe, but it is romantic and more affordable than going out! Plus you can customize it to what you like. You can have a picnic in the woods, at a beach, in a field, at a waterfall, etc... (just bring your bug spray too!)

Well I hope that helped! Please feel free to share any of your own ideas!
Love and Smiles!
