Steps

  1. Go on a Date if You Don't Have a Lot of Money Step 1 Version 2.jpg
    1
    Plan how you'll get to your date location. Instead of using public transport, try walking or riding your bikes. If the location is very far away, take a car or bus instead of a taxi. Note that some buses offer discounts at different times of the day. Weekends are usually when bus fares are very expensive. If you are going to consume any alcohol, taking a car is not your best choice.

    Go to places within walking distances. It's great to walk somewhere. Make your date feel protected if they don't walk to places too much, or, let your date act tough by pretending you need protection.

    Stay at home, watch a movie, order in. You can do this if you're in high school - there's more of a chance you'll get some action if you only date for sexual favours, but remember No means No.
