Ten Great Cheap Dates


Park Date:

Pack up a healthy picnic, grab a soft blanket, and set out for your favorite area park--YOUR park. Bring extra bread for the ducks.

The Adventure Sport Date:

Mountain biking, rollerskating, Ice skating, rock climbing (you can even do that indoors, you know), rowing in the park, whatever….learn to work together as a team. Or one of you may end up playing ER nurse to the other. Even better.


The Disco Flashback Date:

Escape from 2009 for the night, go back in time, and take your date disco-bowling. Bust out the old polyester.


The Sports Night Date:

Bring your date to an area sports bar. Make sure it’s on the night of a great game—you may only get one chance to do this one.


Art Gallery or Museum Date:

Not as boring as it sounds. C’mon, broaden your horizons.


The Drive-in Movie Date:

Change things up and take your date to a drive-in movie theater. Not recommended for nights below 40F. Also defintiely not recommended for nights above 80F.


Romantic Drive and View Date:

Take a romantic drive to the most beautiful view in your city. For Houstonians, that would be….


The Kiss-the-Chef Date:

Heat things up while you cook your own entrees. And make sure you're whippin' up your best dish--definitely not the time to be experimenting.


The Karaoke Date:

Try this one at your own risk. Music of certain 70’s cheeseball crooners are strictly off limits. Caution: karaoke has ended many a relationship. Know what you're getting into.


Design-Your-Own Date:

Give some thought to a very special and personal date. Create your date around your loved one’s favorite interests. You can still go cheap—because on this one, it truly is the thought that counts! BIG potential brownie points.
