What are some good ';date night'; ideas for married couples costing only $200?

Although I'm not married, what I've seen where I am (Metro Detroit area) is that couples seem to go to the casinos locally. I would think that an inexpensive dinner, then a few hours at the casino would be enjoyable. Especially on weekends when there's often free entertainment and so on. Seems a good way to unwind and socialize, plus maybe even walk out with more than the $200!What are some good ';date night'; ideas for married couples costing only $200?
We are having a Mardi Gras themed dinner with a nice place setting and festive centerpiece. The women are wearing Mardi Gras masks and men beads. We will have Mardi Gras music in the background.


Other options:


I don't know where you live but, you can have a candle light picnic on the lake, park or backyard. Attend a jazz concert in the park. Go to a mystery dinner theatre. Have a fondue couples party - blind fold your mate and feed them a variety of items with chocolate and/or cheese on it. Play board games, eat junk food and consume drink fun (find a cool recipe).What are some good ';date night'; ideas for married couples costing only $200?
With 200 dollars, you can do alot.


Just depends on what kinda date your


thinking about like romantic or fun and outgoing.


For fun and outgoing try looking up a comedy club


or something that the two of you may be interested in.


Romantic could be a poetry reading or a romantic dinner


at a nice restaurant maybe with a nice view of the city.
Find a local gallery that will be hosting an opening with wine and cheese. You can discuss art while sipping on wine.





Take dancing lessons together, then practice your moves at a local bar or restaurant that hosts a weekly Salsa or Tango night.





If you have some favorite recipes, have a night where you cook dinner together. Or get a one-on-one lesson with a local chef and learn how to prepare a new dish.





Go to the theatre to see a play or opera together. Go shopping before for a new dress.





Go shopping together for sexy new lingerie, then check out a sex store to get something naughty for later that night. Don't forget the chocolate syrup...Redi-whip is good too.
If you can stay out all night, how about renting a nice motel room, and have a nice dinner, maybe go dancing and then a romantic evening at the hotel.
