Valentine's Day on a McBudget

Since Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, I thought I’d offer some ideas for romancing your special someone. Obviously, things like The Melting Pot, Cartier diamonds, and the ***Lelo Pleasure Object*** are great ideas, but in case you haven’t noticed, we are in a recession. Here are some ideas for a budget-friendly Valentine’s Day that is sure to leave your partner speechless:

Dinner

Start the evening off right. Go to McDonalds and purchase a bunch of McNuggets. Cut them into heart-shapes. Make sure to have a variety of McDonald’s dipping sauces to try. Some locations may charge you extra for the sauce, but it’s worth it. There are people out there who are prone to have a melt-down without sweet ‘n sour sauce, only to find them at the bottom of the bag, and you just do not want to deal with that on V-day. If you absolutely can’t afford the extra sauces, just go in 5 seperate times and tell them you forgot to ask for sauce when you went through the drive-thru “just a minute ago.”

Romance movies: With movie tickets at $10 each, who can afford dinner and a movie anymore?

The Bath Seat

I was standing in line at my Rite Aid pharmacy and saw this. A man behind me in line sees it at the same time and says to his super attractive girlfriend “I could think of a bunch of ways to use that.” I thought to myself, “how clever! This guy really knew how to stretch his budget!” No way is he going to spend $300 on some scary sex swing. And, if he happens to have a grandma or grandpa on Medicare he could probably snag one for FREE!

The Conair Heat Massage Tool

I don’t think further description is necessary. Also available at your local Rite Aid.

Those are just some ideas for creating a special and memorable Valentine’s Day. If you think of something I have left out, please add your suggestions to the comments section.
