10 Ways to Be a Romantic Without Breaking the Bank by Josie Riviera

Valentine's Day is a fun, romantic holiday. Let's look at 10 ways to be a romantic without breaking the bank:

1.  Pack a picnic

2.  Give chocolates

3.  Write a poem, or read poetry together

4.  Leave a love note for your spouse or significant other.

5.  Send a love email.

6.  Go on a date and pretend it’s your first. Get dressed up, and don’t forget flowers. Make reservations at your favorite restaurant.

7.  Feed each other a favorite food…grapes immediately comes to mind. :)

8.  Slow dance to your favorite romantic music…I love “Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers

9.  Watch a romantic movie together. (Casablanca, anyone?)

10. Say “I love you.”
