Let’s talk about wine.

We love wine. Dry red wine is our jam. We try to drink as much of it as we can. But having wine at a restaurant or bar can add up, especially since with 2 of us, we are drinking at least one bottle… otherwise, what’s the point?

For this reason, we buy wine by the case. Now, this is not about being cheap (well, it kinda is). but our goal is to date often, at least twice a week. With dinner, drinks, and activities, a single date can easily be $100… multiply that by twice a week and 4 weeks a month… get real. Ain’t nobody got time for that. We are tired of the consumer mindset, forking our money over. We are being smart about dating and saving our money for the good stuff.

Now back to the program! Splash Wines cases are, on average, $6-$9 per bottle, so it’s a win!

Incorporating your own wine into date night.

• Start a date off with a glass or two. Literally, as soon as you walk through the door, pop the top and get the party started.
• DIY Dates (meals at home, or picnics) are a no brainer, just keep the wine glasses filled all night
• If you start the date by going to an early dinner or event, save the wine until you get home for a nightcap.
• ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS bring wine with you in case there is an opportunity to sneak it in (movie theaters are great for this), or feel free to pop the top and take a sip in the car before you walk into your destination.
