Life is expensive, and [like me] many of us live on a paycheck to paycheck basis. But basically, no matter how broke you are, you don't have to compromise or give up on spending romantic nights with your partner that you love so much.

During times of poverty, you may find yourself needing to make some cutbacks - meaning those lux outdoor dates at your favourite cocktail bar might have to be culled. This doesn't mean that you need to stop having date night with bae though. There's many creative ideas to be explored when it comes to keeping the romance alive - without the need for expensive meals and cocktails! Let’s check out some perfect indoor date ideas to do instead.


Games Night

There is nothing quite like that feeling of your fella's butt at Scrabble. Or Fifa. Or Black Jack. No matter the game, everyone's a winner when you set out a cheese board and a couple of bottles of wine. The competition, turning off your electronics, and leaving the smartphones behind makes for a great games night. The one to one interaction and time spent just together? That’s more priceless than any time spent outside the house.

Indoor Camping

Pop up the tent and get your camp on. Light some fake candles to make a fire, turn off the lights and roll out a double sleeping bag to cosy-up together in. If you have one, get out in the garden and fall asleep under the actual stars. We're talking deep, campfire conversations - maybe with a few spooky stories to ensure some cuddles later. 

Turn Off The WiFi

Pretend the electricity has gone out. Do you remember being a kid and panicking when the lights went out? No internet, no TV, nothing with power? Make up your own games and have conversations without referring to the internet when you do. Get creative.

Binge Watch Session

When you’re stuck in the half-season point with your favourite TV shows, you usually have to wait until they come out on TV here. Do you remember when The Walking Dead broke for the season after Negan and Lucille? Well, in the UK we had to wait for more -, but in America, they got it before we did. So, why not invest in a good VPN with advice from TroyPoint? You’ll be able to watch whatever show you want, from wherever you sit - anywhere in the world. Binge-watching with snacks? Yeah, that’s a great date night!

Taster Party

You don't need to have a big group of people to have a fancy taster night. Pick a theme and layout your options. If you choose vodka, find all the flavours of miniatures and line them up to taste. If it’s ice cream, do the same! You can choose any theme you like - which actually sounds like a proper laugh to me.
