Cheap, creative dates around the city

Save these dates

The economic recession isn't exactly romantic. You simply can't afford dinner and drinks at an upscale restaurant with your sweetie every weekend. So, why not impress your S.O. with creativity and resourcefulness?

All of our date suggestions are designed to be light on your wallet.* Most of them involve an activity or learning opportunity and they all stray from the standard dinner-and-a-movie date formula. My, don't you look smart.
