Last Minute Valentine on Budget

 valentine-on-budget.jpgYou do not have to break the budget to get your beloved one a smile. Here are some quick ideas for Valentine’s Day:  

  • A lot of people decorate using flowers which cost more than $25 for 4 flowers; with this bad economy you may want to change to red tissue and shredded paper/wrapper. You can find it at your local store for 99 cents each.     
  •  As for the cake couple slices or pieces would be great.   valentine-cake-1.jpg
  • Going to a restaurant might be a good idea if you already had a reservation, they will be so booked this Saturday.     
  • Gift cards works like magic, but try something unique like getting her/him a gif card for message, or spa ;-)        
  • Romantic movie with a scoop of ice cream instead of popcorn would be a good thought.
  • Remember you can always have a great romantic movie for free, check your local library.
  •  Write a note and put it on his/her car windshield or in an unsuspected place.

Remember it is the thought that counts after all.

Have a great romantic weekend ! last-minute-valentine.jpg

    Instead of going out, I baked a cake from scratch and colored the home made icing pink. I even paid it forward and took another pink cake to a friend of mine, so that made it fun. Anyway, for zero out of pocket expense, we had a great treat.
