The 5 Days of Valentine’s Day (Day 2): Totally Cheap And Unconventional Date Ideas

First, by the word cheap, I don’t mean cheap, as in some sort of candy-necklace bikini or a whipped cream teddy. You all should know me better than that!

With such rough times in the economy – and no sign of things improving any time soon – I advise all of you lovebirds out there to take advantage of the money crunch by doing some unconventional and cheap in price for Valentine’s Day. And lucky for you, I’m here to give you some ideas.

What are YOU doing for Valentine’s Day? Shoot me a note — I’d love to hear about it.

xoxo,
Mel

Tangled-Up Twister: The perks of this one should be rather obvious: lots of giggles and flirtatious moves! Or even create your own rules! A twist on Twister, perhaps!

Sweet (And A Little Sexy) Scrabble: Why not make up your own rules for the game. You can only make words that describe the other person (read: IN A NICE WAY!).

Love Notes Around The House: Each of you take Post-It notes and write reasons why you love the other person. Then, hide them all around the house and watch each other smile (and sigh!) as you find each one. You never know – you might not find some of those notes until well into the spring (or, conveniently, when you two are in the midst of a fight).

An Old-Fashioned Kids’ Valentine’s Celebration: Remember in elementary school when you used to make your fellow students Valentines and stick a piece of candy on it. If you ‘liked’ the person, you probably put a Hershey’s Kiss on it or was even so bold as to write the word LOVE on said card.

Trade Candy Hearts: Who thought one little candy heart could say it all? BE MINE. I LOVE YOU. It could just be the best Valentine’s Day gift you’ve ever received from your mute boyfriend.

    That post-it note idea is really cute. I think I’ll do that this year!
