For the Love of Saving

We’ve all heard it, “IF THEY WANTED TO THEY WOULD” and while that is partially true, this Valentine’s Day, we want you to be that partner who makes their significant other feel special without breaking the bank! 

Here are four ways that will surely win your partner’s heart!

Plan a Romantic Dinner at Home:

Time to put all the cooking skills your mamá taught you to use! Cooking dinner at home can be a great way to save money while also enjoying a romantic evening together. Cooking together can be a fun bonding experience, especially if you didn’t forget to set the mood with candlelight and a special table setting.

Plus the best part about this is that you can get creative with your menu and add a little Sazón. YUM! 

Go for Experience Over Material Things:

Instead of buying material gifts that will end up in the trash, consider planning a special experience for your significant other. Whether it’s a picnic in the park, a cooking class, or a scenic hike, experiences that are often free or at a very low cost can create lasting memories and provide an opportunity for quality time together.

Remember, it doesn’t cost much to make unos taquitos de frijol with a little bubbly on the side. What matters is the intention!

Shop Smart and save:

If your partner’s love language is “Gifts” we understand that getting them something physical is important to them. That’s when shopping smart will be your lifeline. 

For example, rather than getting a bouquet of flowers that can cost you an arm and a leg on valentine’s day, consider buying a potted plant that your significant other can keep for a longer period of time. This can be a unique and affordable option that still shows your love and appreciation. Plus can even become a shared activity to care for it and see it grow. ¡Que cute!

Want a Weekend Getaway? 

If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, consider opting for a camping trip instead of a more expensive vacation. Camping can be a fun and budget-friendly option that provides an opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors and spend quality time together. Airbnb who? We don’t know her.

Gift a Financial Planning Session:

Now if you have some money to spend and are looking for a unique and meaningful gift, consider booking a financial planning session for yourself and your significant other. This can help you both get on the same page with your finances and create a plan for a brighter financial future. Who doesn’t want a financially stable partner!?

It can also be a great way to start the year off on the right foot and set yourself up for long-term financial success. If that’s not love, then we don’t know what is!
