Valentine’s Day is about romance and love and someone special. But it doesn’t have to be about spending a lot of money. I mean, Christmas just passed. My birthday is the day after Christmas. My husband’s birthday is Febraury 25th. Our anniversary is February 18th. So Valentine’s Day falls in a very busy (and expensive!) time.
Here are a few tips for making it special while spending next to nothing.
- Handmade valentine’s cards are always a good choice…and not just handmade by the kids. :) Get creative and make your hunny a handmade card.
- Create personal, candy wrappers to put around each family members favorite candy bar (think the paper wrapper around a Hershey’s Bar). A favorite candy bar is a simple, inexpensive but thoughtful gift.
- “Coupons” are a great gift and not the ones we talk about on the blogs all day. But homemade coupons. These can be of the romantic nature or family-friendly. ;) Coupons for one day with no chores for the kids. One day of uninterrupted football for dad. One day that mom doesn’t have to spend in the kitchen coupons! :) The possibilites are endless…
- Valentine’s dinners and dates don’t have to be expensive. Popcorn and a movie in your living room can be a suitable date night!
