4 romantic but cheap things to do this Valentines….You can never go wrong…

And it’s finally here…Valentines day… a day loved and loathed in equal measure.

Most guys are currently in a dilemma right as they try and think about what excuses to come up with to evade spending on this dreadful day…And look at it, you are just coming from a recession in January only to be slapped with this drastic expense which happens to come at the middle of the month when you’ve finished paying all your debts and you’ve been left with nothing.

You surely need a way out and I might just have a solution for you….

First things first, log into allrecipes.com and look for a simple recipe beside Spaghetti and minced meat….I can guarantee you can get something which won’t even require you to spend more than 1500 and the meal will simply be spectacular. Out of the box and simply romantic, no girl can resist that.

If she insists on going out, then I know just the right place…the railway museum. Just pass through Chicken inn, buy a 3 piecer and large fries and head there…you only get to pay like 200 bob to enter. And trust me she’ll have the best time of her life kissing, cuddling and eating in the old trains…and not forgetting the photos which will simply blow her away.

But maybe you are just completely skint and you are out of options…then I suggest you watch a romantic movie. And ShowMax has loads of those in their catalogue. Actually they just released their February catalogue and it’s simply amazing. They include:
