Want to have a special night with the love of your life, but you’re watching your budget? I know how that is; my partner and I save every penny because plane tickets aren’t cheap.

Try out these 3 quick date ideas for a fun long distance date that won’t break the bank!

1. Movie Night!

Movie nights are a great quick and easy way to spend some time together. You can pick up some popcorn and candy at the dollarstore to add to the experience, and if you’re feeling really adventurous you can set a theme for the evening. None of this has to cost much money, and you and your partner can enjoy hours of entertainment for the cost of a Netflix subscription.

2. Letter Writing Night

Break out some paper and some gel pens and write a classic corny love note to your dear one. It’s fun, romantic, and a great way to mix up your evening. Put on some music and you can write secret messages to each other. Include inside jokes, a sachet of your favorite tea, some stickers, or a photograph to give them a smile on the other side. This date just costs the price of a stamp, and I think more couples should send each other snail mail to let each other know they care.

3. Workout together

I know working out seems like more of a chore than a date; but doing some stretches together is a great change from the regular video call on the couch. Try watching a YouTube video together and following along with an instructor. There’s always the option to make a game out of it and challenge each other to see who can hold a wall-sit the longest. Getting moving together is a free way to feel closer together and get in a bit of exercise!
