It's Friday and you have no interest in seeing the new G.I. Joe movie. (Me either!)

But sitting in the house is not an option either because the weather is going to be so nice, no storms (don't quote me -- I am not Larry Sprinkle) are brewing on the horizon. You need something to do and you don't want to spend a lot of money on it.

I feel your pain. But a nice date doesn't have to be expensive. It can even be free -- so to speak. The venue is free but you have to spring for dinner.

Head to Freedom Park tonight with your love (date, booty call or whatever) and a picnic basket filled with treats that you both like. If your plan is to get some sweet lip while you're at the park, leave the onions and the pickles at home.

Pack some water or something sparkling and take a walk around the park while feeding each other. The park closes at dusk, so if you time things right, you'll be burning more calories in bed before midnight.
