Have your tools prepped in advance for your project so you won’t have to stop in the middle of your fun to run to the store. Knocking two birds out with one stone, turn your tunes on and just spend quality time with your babe.

Rent an Airbnb

In case you didn’t know, Airbnb is an online marketplace and homestay network enabling people to list or rent short-term lodging in residential properties, with the cost of the accommodation set by the property owner.

Download the app in the apple store and choose where you’d like to stay and…. viola, your new home awaits. Airbnb is affordable, and can adjust to your financial needs while still having the time of your life. If you want to have a staycation or visit a city nearby for Valentine’s Day, consider Airbnb before a hotel!

Volunteer

Local pet shelters are always looking for volunteers to help with feeding and taking care of pets, contact your nearest shelter and see how you and your honey can help for the day. You may just walk away from the shelter as new parents to a puppy or kitty!
