Date night gifting tips

Give the plan, not just the gift

Put the first date on the calendar when you hand it over. A gift with a date attached gets used.

Mix big and small

Pair one "proper" date with easy nights in. Not every date needs a reservation.

Keep a record

Take a photo on each date. Six months later, that's a scrapbook you didn't plan to make.

Questions people ask

What's a good date night gift for couples?

One that removes the planning: a scratch-off book of date ideas, a game for two, or a build kit for a night in. The gift is really the time together.

What are cheap date night ideas at home?

Build something together, play a quick card game, or answer a question-a-day journal over dinner. Most of the ideas in a scratch-off date book cost little or nothing.
