If you’re like half of the country, you’re probably watching every penny you have due to the unstable economy. But, just because you’re on a budget doesn’t mean you and your sweetheart can’t enjoy a romantic Valentine’s Day. In fact, watching your wallet is a great reason to be even more creative and spontaneous this year on the national day of love! For ultimate romance and fun this Valentine’s Day, grab your man and enjoy one of these budget-friendly options of celebration for cheap Valentine’s Day activities.

Romance In The Kitchen

Who says every Valentine’s Day should be spent in an expensive restaurant? While going to a fancy diner is fun, creating your own meal with your man in the kitchen can get your blood pumping…in a good way! Try to plan on spending Valentine’s Day in the kitchen, cooking with your mate. You can create a lovely and romantic dinner together, even if neither of you are master chefs. Choose something simple like spaghetti and salad, if you’re feeling a little inadequate when thinking of standing over the stove. The process of creating a meal together will remind you of your connection with each other and create sultry steam, perfect for after dinner fun!

Picnic At The Park

One of the most romantic things couples can do together is picnic in the park. If you’re a little short on funds this Valentine’s Day, pack a few salads, bread and a bottle of wine and head to your local park. Spend hours with your sweetheart, laying on a soft blanket in the grass and munching on the goodies you toted along. Sure, it’s inexpensive but the memories you create will be priceless!

Budget-Friendly Gifts

While you may be tempted to create a one-of-a-kind mixed CD for your love this year, to save money…don’t! Instead, think of other ways you can show your affection without spending a bundle. Consider creating your own coupon booklet to present to your man. Create your own “love coupons” for various acts of affection (hugs, back massages and more). You can make it as naughty or nice as you’d like! Your man will adore having the option to use the coupons in the future and you’ll spend less than $5 creating this fun gift!

Love doesn’t always call for elaborate expressions—enjoy these cheap Valentine’s Day activities with your man!
