So gone is January and we say "hello" to our new friend this month February! The month of groundhogs seeing or not seeing their shadows, chocolates and overpriced stuffed animals. That's right the count down is on to Valentine's Day. It is pretty fitting then that today I announce our new contest for February!
We want you to post your BEST "money saving ideas for valentine's day" on our facebook page. Give us some great ideas to share with all our fellow facebookers and tweeters on how to save a few bucks during one of the most expensive holidays of the year. What can you win? Well, you have a chance to take home a $100 gift certificate to a Dauphin Area restaurant, you can treat your special someone to a great dinner with this prize!
I am interested to see what tips are out there! I shared mine today on facebook: cook dinner for yourselves, its way cheaper to buy your ingredients than it is to cram yourselves in a busy restaurant on the actual day of Valentine's. Just think a lobster tail is about $9.99 and potatoes a 5 lb bag for $6.00. Add some french bread for $1.00, a bagged salad $2.99 and a bottle of mid-range wine $15.00...what do you get?
You get a great meal for about $46.00 and some change- if you don't know how to cook, google can become your best friend! Plus you get a wonderful evening at home, together without waiting 20 minutes for your reservation! Pop in a movie or play a fun board game after and continue your night together!
I hope you post- and we'll help you wine and dine if you win!
