Cheap Date!

At the end of January, Todd and I decided to go to lunch and a movie as a cheap date.  We love cheap dates, but this one probably took the cake.

We decided we wanted to go see the new Narnia movie.  Well, it wasn’t exactly “new,” but it was at the dollar theater (which is usually $1.50/person.)  When we got there, we found out that the tickets were only $1/each! 

We brought pop and a bag of popcorn from home in a purse and snacked while watching the movie.

Afterwards, we went to the Olive Garden for the all you can eat soup & salad (our favorite.)  The bill for lunch: $14…and we had a gift card from my grandmother.  So, we paid nothing for lunch.  The gift card is for $50, so we have enough money to go out 2 more times and get the soup and salad. 

I absolutely love cheap dates.  We had a great time talking at dinner about places we’ve been and where we want to travel.  It was just an all-around good time. 

What do you do for cheap dates?
