Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to break the budget.
Here are two options:
Cook at home. This week is a good one at the grocery for steak. (Kroger began a sale today featuring Ribeye steaks and beef tenderloin.) Splurging on foods that you love and cooking at home can save tons of money, and is a great opportunity to make some cool memories under your own roof.
Go out … another time. We are lucky this year that Valentine’s Day is on Friday. That leaves Saturday and Sunday to go out and eat, if you wish. Many Valentine’s Day menus have only select items and they come at a premium price. Go on Saturday or Sunday … get a bigger bang for your buck!
€¦ and remember, there’s no cents in paying full price! Use those coupons or a gift card that you got for Christmas!
