Cook Together
That’s right. Try not to call for a pizza or curry. It can be tempting, but the act of cooking together can be very romantic. You’ll have a great time together, and both enjoy what you’ve made afterward. Sip on some wine as you go and have fun.

Rent or Buy a Special Movie
If you are movie lovers and don’t think a date night at home would be the same without watching one, then alright. But, we say rent or buy one that you both really want to see. Or see an old classic that you love.
Keep enjoying each other for the rest of your lives together
Scrolling through online streaming sites can be fun to see what’s on. However, it’s also very easy to spend well over an hour selecting what you want to watch. So, we think it’s best to have it planned.
Reminisce
Do you ever still think about the old days? Or, when you first met? Some of us get so caught up in the moment we don’t really think about things like that. But, it can be lovely once in a while. Get out some old photos and let them bring back memories of things that have been. It can be a super special feeling.
So, Stay In
These are just a few ideas, and there are plenty more. Come up with your own. Whatever you do, don’t let staying in or trying to save be a reason for you not to have fun. Keep enjoying each other for the rest of your lives together without having to empty the piggy bank.
