Cheap Date

currency

Our ‘entertainment budget’ is ….drum roll…. 10 euros a month.  Now, this month, that converts to $6.99. Not much for going ‘out on the town’ or the typical dinner & a movie. So here is what we do:

We take that 10 euros a month and put it in the savings with the hopes that we can take a real vacation.You know the kind I mean… sitting next to a pool, a cool drink and a good book or seeing some sights we’ve been wanting to see.

One of the things we do is; pop in a tape (yep… VHS… hey it still works) of dance lessons we bought about 5 years ago and we’re lately learning how to waltz. We’re trying to prepare for the next church wedding in October when they always have a waltz and we can never join in on that one (our church friends have a lot of fun!). Now, I’ll admit, we do it badly (very); we step on each others feet, laugh more than dance, but it’s free and it’s something we can do together. We’d like to do it weekly but we have  lot of guests so it’s not always possible.

If we lived in the USA, we’d love to have ‘library dates’… boy, we miss the ENGLISH library! library

What do you do for a cheap date?
