Dinner & A Movie

We had a very nice date for cheep!

We had a kid free night (swapped babysitting-no charge!). So we decided to try the new burrito place, Big City Burrito, and go to the dollar theater for Marley & Me (bring a tissue!).

Coupon for B1G1 free burrito from Valpak, plus it was Friday night which is buy a burrito get a drink free, so we got two drinks free (I'm pretty sure the deals are not intended to work in conjunction with each other-our cashier may have just been nice).

Breakdown:

-Babysitting: Free (swapped with a friend)

-Big City Burrito: $5.28 for two burritos and two drinks

-Movie: $2

Tissues: Just kidding(sort of)

Total Cost: $7.28

p.s. for those reading, we do not have the worst dollar theater in
the world, we went a couple of months ago.

Sitter Swapping- Free Baby Sitter

Step 1 in creating Cheep Dates- (if you have children)

SITTER SWAPPING.

Cut your dates by 50%

Find a few friends that would also want free babysitting. Have them watch your kids on Friday and you watch thiers on Saturday. Need an all day date or over nighter? Just watch your friends' kids all day and you've earned it.

Sitter Swapping Benefits:

-FREE

-Your kids get to hang out with friends

-Don't have to search for a good babysitter

(mom's make the best sitters)

-If your date runs long you just owe more time not more money

If you can't Swap at least team up.

Split the cost of a Sitter with another couple. If you normally pay $3/hr for 2 kids, add another 2 kids and pay $5 an hour ($2.50/hr for each family) depending on your sitter some will take extra kids for only $1 more.

There's also Grandma's House..... love you mom!
