How the math works
Spent = what you paid for items already bought. Still to pay = planned cost of the rest. Left = budget − (spent + still to pay). Example: a $275 budget with $72 spent and $180 still planned leaves $23. A $50 a month fund gives $600 a year; 12 planned dates of $565 leave $35.
How much do people spend on Valentine's Day?
It varies a lot. Pick your own number first and fit gifts, dinner and extras into it, not the other way around.
What is a date night fund?
A fixed amount you set aside every month for dates. Planning the 12 dates of the year shows if the fund is enough or if some months need a free idea.
What are cheap date night ideas?
A sunset walk with a picnic, a board game night, cooking a new recipe together or a free concert in the park cost little or nothing.
Organizing tool, not financial advice. Examples use made-up numbers.
