    Doing fun things together is so important and it’s FUN. I live on the Florida coast and even just going out to the beach in the evening and getting ice cream and walking is enjoyable and inexpensive. 🙂

  11. Natalie Brown says

    at

    I like that the video shows people doing things that don’t cost a fortune and involve some exercise. Just talking, walking, or going to a museum is quality time.

  12. Ronda says

    I have actually thought it was important to date your spouse! It is important to take time for each other and make each other a priority.

  19. Shannon F says

    We have a dollar show theatre around us. We love to catch a show, go for a romantic walk, and make a dinner together! Cheap and super romantic!

    at

    My husband works out of state as a Lineman, so he is only home on weekends or every other weekend. After the kids go to bed we have Skype dates and when he’s home on the weekend, we stay up after the kids go to sleep to get alone time! We don’t get to go ‘out’ on many dates because he wants to spend time with the kids when he’s home, but we make our alone time special 🙂

    We love going night fishing at the river!! It’s free, and soooo much fun!! Bonfires, drinks, and fishing.. nothing better 😉

  42. Jill Myrick says

    My husband and I have a bi-weekly date night. It gives us time together without any other distractions and keeps us strong as a couple.
    I think that every couple should have a date night. It gives you time to connect and renew your love for each other.

  43. Jill Myrick says

    One of the things that we enjoy doing the most is packing a picnic and spending time out by our local lake together.

    We like to rent movies and make nice dinners for each other.

  45. Linda Kwolek says

    at

    The video brought back memories. We have empty nest as of the last 3 months. Before we used to belong to a bowling league. I think we need to start dating again now that our kids are taking care of themselves.

  46. Linda Kwolek says

    at

    Movies have been the norm lately. Popcorn or a pizza.

  47. Laurie Emerson says

  48. Laurie Emerson says

    I make dates with my husband a priority by having one Saturday a month a just us night. Sometimes we go to the movies or stay at home alone and listen to some light jazz by candlelight.

  49. Michelle Brooks says

    at

    We like to get out AT LEAST once a month. Even if it’s only McDonalds cheeseburgers…it’s a date!

  50. Nicole Sender says

    at

    I think the video was spot on and said a lot in a short amount of time.

  51. Nicole Sender says

    at

    Forgot to add that to make dates with a spouse: we set time aside at least once a week to relax and touch base.

  52. Nicole Sender says

    at

    Our low cost date is to go out for lunch instead of a dinner.

  53. heather sullivan says

    at

    Have my sister watch the kids and rent a movie and make a dinner together spend time with out kids for a night and a free baby sitter!

  54. Carissa Joslyn says

    at

    Good ideas and keeps the excitement going. I’ve been single for years, and my kids are one of the % that don’t know their dads in their lives. They left me when i was pregnant. BUT ones in prison now, and the other is now a drug dealer. soooo they’re better off. That being said, I don’t date anymore. i don’t trust people, my oldest son has minor brain damage and he’s hard to handle. id never be able to trust someone with him, not to hurt him. last time i went on a date was 3+ years ago.

  55. Carissa Joslyn says

    at

    for a low cost date.. I’ve never been on a “date” that they didnt make me pay, but Just go to taco bell, buy me two chulupas, and lets watch netflix and ill be a happy camper 🙂

  56. kathy f says

    at

    My best low cost date is a picnic in the park or a redbox and popcorn at home.

  57. Georgia Beckman says

    at

    I thought the video showed some very realistic ways to connect with our spouse at little moments that we can grab. We have raised 4 children & never set up date nights. We should have. We are in the process of adopting 3 of our granddaughters. At 50 years old, it’s certainly not what we were expecting at this stage in our lives, but God is sending his message loud & clear that He will be here with us. I think we’ll be setting up date nights now!

  58. Georgia Beckman says

    at

    One of our favorite things to do to “get away” occasionally, would be to go to Barnes & Noble after a meal out. On the weekends they stay open (or used) until midnight. So we’d go peruse books, pick out our favorite magazines, find a comfy chair & read through the magazines & just enjoy some quiet time together.

  59. Candie L says

    at

    My husband and I just celebrated our 15th anniversary. We go on date night once a month.Thank you

  60. Candie L says

    at

    An expensive way to find time together, is just to go for a walks on nature hikes. Thank you

  61. Dawn Monroe says

    I think a great cheap date would be beer and more s by a campfire.

    A free or low cost date is walking on the beach together and then enjoying a cup of coffee.

  65. wen budro says

    I got a lot out of the video. It had some good reminders about how important it is to stay connected and to make time for each other.

  66. Leigh Anne Borders says

    at

    My husband and I make time by scheduling it and not backing out!

  67. Leigh Anne Borders says

    at

    For date nights that are inexpensive we got to our local park and hike and picnic.

  68. Maria B says

    at

    I like getting a meal at Chilis for meal deal and going to movies using my college id.

  69. Gena P says

    at

    nice video! ya, we make sure that no matter how busy and how many plans we have we always make time to do lunch, or have dinner together

  70. Gena P says

    at

    Our cheap date nights are watching Dateline, a movie thats on demand and make a fun dinner at home!

  71. Megan Parsons says

    Favorite free date is a picnic and then watching the stars!

  72. Deanna Middendorf says

    at

    After being married to the love of my life for almost 27 years and being together for 31 years we sometimes get busy but this video is a reminder to keep that love life going. We do have dates and I love each and every one. With the grandkids and the kids still very active in our lives we need to keep things fresh. I think after watching that video I’ll ask him out on a date right now.

  73. Deanna Middendorf says

    at

    Free low cost dates are usually at a park with a little picnic and a walk. We have to eat anyway, might as well make a date of it.

  74. Tina W says

    at

    We rent a few Redbox movies and set up a picnic on the living room floor. We pretend we’re at the drive-in like when we were young!

  75. Trisha McKee says

    at

    I love the video. We ensure we get a date night by remembering that it strengthens our communication and bond and is a necessary treat.

  76. Tandi Cortez-Rios says

    at

    A cheap date for my husband and I include take-out and watching DVRd Days of Our Lives. We record a week at a time and watch them together.

  77. Trisha McKee says

    at

    Our favorite free date is fishing! Every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday night, fishing.

  78. Missy Marie says

    at

    A bon fire is the perfect setting for date night.

  79. Tandi Cortez-Rios says

    at

    I love the video. It reminds me that we need to let the world disappear for just a second and focus on just us. With 3 kids, we really have had a real date in years.

  80. Tamra Phelps says

    at

    The video is nice. It has some pretty good ideas. They couldn’t hurt, lol.

  81. Tamra Phelps says

    at

    I don’t have a spouse, so I don’t have to ‘keep love alive,’ lol. But I think a great low-cost date is simply going on a walk through town or a park.

  82. AEKZ2 says

    at

    Dinner at home and watching a DVD is an inexpensive way to have date night.

  83. Yona Williams says

    at

    We both love movies, so we do a lot of movie nights – both inside with DVDs and at the theater.

  84. Yona Williams says

    at

    Luckily, we don’t have an issue carving out time for one another – having schedules that allow for quality is also a plus.

  85. Sand says

    at

    I think it’s very important to re-connect with your spouse.

  86. Sand says

    at

    I like dinner and a movie or picnics.
