The season of love is finally here and we all can’t wait to share it with our better halves.
Since the pandemic broke, dates have been minimal and it’s only fair that this year you try and make Valentine’s Day special.
Although you might want to spend a whole lot on your partner this year, your budget may not allow it but that is no reason not to have fun.
Here are some ways you can spoil your partner this Valentines on a budget:
Cook their favourite mealGoing out for meals may be fun but nothing beats cooking your partner’s favourite meal and spending some time together.
While you wait as the food cooks, you can play some board games or watch a movie, maybe even talk about the next step in your relationship.
Plan a movie marathonThis year’s Valentine’s Day falls on a weekend and what better way to spend it than by binge watching with your partner?
Watching movies may seem like a cliché but it one of the easiest ways to improve your relationship with your partner or break the ice in case you are starting a new one.
Plan a picnicIf you are into outdoor activities then going for a picnic would do this year, considering it is a weekend, you have enough time to prepare, hike and rest.
Nature has a way of taking you away from the hustle and bustle of the city and relaxing.
StaycationsWhile your ideal getaway would be at the coastal shores, staycations also work the same magic.
Considering the pandemic, a staycation would be more convenient and budget friendly this year, so long as you both have fun.
Have a spa dayWhat would beat a day of pampering and free massages? If you can go to a real spa the better but if that’s not an option, make your home a spa for the day.
Get some scented oils and candles, wine and clean sheets and give your partner an experience they will never forget.
Tip: It is never about how much you spend on your partner; it is the love you pour into an activity you do together that really matters.
