Bargain Dates

Just because you've got no money doesn't mean you can't be romantic - you just need to use your initiative. Here's some hints on bargain dates from the likes of Kyte, Love Ends Disaster! and My American Heart.

Kyte
"I took my girlfriend to see Bodger & Badger at the student union."

Love Ends Disaster!
Oakes: "Take them to a Love Ends Disaster! gig. It’s excellent value for money and you are guaranteed to get laid. We don’t offer a money back guarantee."

My American Heart
Jesse: "I always thought renting a movie and snuggling at home was the best. Girls love that."
Larry: "Take her to a gazebo, dressed nice, with a boombox (requires batteries!) with a mix tape of your guy's favourite songs and take-out Chinese food. Don’t forget the blanket!"

Post War Years
"Henry recently took his girlfriend out to McDonalds. Just try to be a bit classier than that."

Rogue Wave
Zach: "Museums are inexpensive, quiet, and erotic."

The Chiara L's
Emma: "A piggyback race/ride around your local park? Water pistols at dawn showdown? Yes, as you can see I'm a born romantic..."
Jonny: "In Leeds we are only 20 minutes from some of the best beauty spots going, so you can get a £4 cheap return to Ilkley, go to the moor, your date will be all emotional with the breathtaking views, stop off to the Cow And Calf pub next to it, have a casual drink and chat so you get to know each other better, then have have a romantic stroll back down the moor to the station. You will be exhilarated,
slightly merry and slightly out of breath - all great things for a date and for the more adventurous of you moors always have plenty of "peaceful & quiet" spots too."

The Envy Corps
"When in England my honey loves a bit of Greggs in her tummy! Cheese and onion pasty is perfect pre-makeout food."

The King Blues
"City farms are found in the least expected of places and you get to play with chickens and stuff. Most people find it gross, but I dig it. Or you could always go and play with the toys in Hamley’s."

Tom Baxter
"Go for a walk around the park. It’s nice and it doesn’t cost a thing."

Winona
"Really cheap? Get on a bus travel to somewhere green or with a river and a bridge walk along it slowly. Pick a wild flower, have plastic cups and share a drink on a park bench and watch the world go by."
