10 Amazing Dates That Are Almost Free …
Dating is expensive. I mean, the new clothes and endless drinks with friends analysing what happened all add up, and then you’ve got the cost of the date itself…and no one wants to appear stingy. There are some date ideas which don’t cost very much at all, though, and can be much better fun than the typical meal out or watching a film. Saving money and having fun?! Sign me up!
1. Cook Together

Eating together can be a great date, but a five star meal comes with a 5 star price tag. Unless, of course, you make it yourself! Find a recipe from a top restaurant (I love using copykat.com for this) and make it together. Not only is it great fun, but there is less pressure and it makes the meal much more exciting too. In short, it makes eating together funner, sexier and you’ll get to know each other better. Ace!
2. Have A Game Night

Dig out your favourite two player games, and some snacks, and have a private game night. I love Uno, which is great for breaking the ice, and games like Twister are fantastic fun. Throw your inhabitions out of the window and really have some fun! You’d be surprised how great a date this makes…If I was to recommend a date to anyone, it would be this. Me and my boyfriend have great photographs and memories!
3. Have A Latino Night

Latino themed nights are huge at the moment, but don’t feel you need to spend a fortune to enjoy one. Dress up in latin outfits, rent some latino music and make tacos together. All you need is tomatoes, avocados, meat, cheese and shells. You could even rent a ‘dancing latino’ video and try out some of the moves…or just enjoy the atmosphere and the food. Yummy!

“Latino Night?”
Really?
For starters, that is an incredibly patronizing and stereotypical description of Latin culture. There is ... See more an immense range of different cultures within the category of “Latino,” and many of them do not include tacos in their cultural cuisine nor cheesy American “Latin dance” movies in their cultural heritage (“Dirty Dancing,” for example, has little or nothing to do with the actual Cuban experience).
Also, what to you is a generic “Latin night” is to me my daily experience. I eat Cuban food, listen to Cuban music, and otherwise enjoy and celebrate my culture almost daily. Would you suggest to your Latino readers that they hold an “American night?” The concept as you propose it here is downright silly.
In short, please consider your Hispanic readers and the reality of their cultural experience before posting something so thoughtless.
