15 Fun, Cheap Outdoor Dates For You And Your Significant Other
Whether you're an outdoorsy couple or not, you'll love these cheap outdoor date ideas.
Most dates are so simple all you need is (maybe) a few bucks, you and your lover, and how can you say no to fun activites as easy and cheap as that?
Drive-In Movies
Pack up the car with blankets and snacks, lay down and watch that movie you both have been dying to see. Drive-in movies not only give you a little change of scenery if you're used to watching movies at the theatre or home but in themselves make for a cute, nostalgic post.
If you didn't post about the date on snapchat or Instagram, did it ever actually happen?
Campfire
Building a campfire for two is basically free and a perfect way for you to spend time together. At the most, you only pay for marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers ($3 at dollar tree!!!) Who doesn't love s' mores and sitting around a warm campfire goofing around?
Go Hiking
just do it
Attend An Amature Sports Game
Even if you aren't a big sports fan, tickets and beer and usually pretty cheap. Entertainment + Drinks, can't beat that
Karaoke Night
Grab your boo and hit up a bar or club for karaoke night, even if you aren't good singers it's always fun to goof around and sing your soul out with the one you love.
Stargazing

Zoo
