Dollar Store Date

I'm back today with a recap of Wednesday's date. While I was trying to decide on dinner I found some coupons for Arby's. One of the coupons was a "dinner for 2 for $8.99". Perfect! This needed to be a cheap date. Afterwards we would play a little shopping game at Dollar Tree where everything is $1. So I set about making the Dollar Store Shopping Cards and envelopes for the money. Here's what I came up with.





I gave each of us $3.25 for the Dollar Store and $5.00 for dinner. Hubby didn't think we could eat at Arby's for $5.00 each, so I proved him wrong. He didn't leave hungry!



After Arby's we headed to Dollar Tree for our shopping spree. We had 15 minutes to purchase 3 items. It was fun but hard to think quickly and find an item. Once we finished shopping we headed home and gave each other the gifts with an explanation of why we picked it. So much fun!




Who to give credit to for the date? I've seen this date listed on several sites. I based mine off of this one from 1000 Date Ideas

Besides the Dollar Store Shopping Card (shown above), I created an envelope.
