I've been out of the singles scene for awhile and I'd like to know how much one spend for a date. How much would a date with dinner and a movie maybe some clubbing with drinks and for those who get lucky to take it to another level. My wife and I were like singles again for almost 2 weeks in Manila. And boy, it was expensive especially since he wants to go all out by splurging on everything. we haven't gone out like this because of our kids in years so he thought it was worth it. We are planning on going home to PI and of course partying there and I don't know how much I should budget for food and entertainment since I haven't been there in more than a decade.

Well, Though the budget depends upon so many parameters, like wealth, monthly income, your habits, place whwr you are date, number of persons, number of days you want to be dating per year and so on....... I will suggest you one and very correct way to budget this perticular enjoyment in life as an amount equal to the fifteen days income of the family should be spared for yearly dating. Should avoid costly lodging and food, select medium rated restaurents & lodging, spend more on food Enjoyment. don't spend anything on drinks, shoping and movies at all, this you could do some time latter, or even never too.

Well it depends where you go. Fast food for two would be about 150-300 now Nicer restaurants expect to pay at least 300 per person up to 2,000 for a couple. Clubbing... there are okay places that you will spend 1,000 for 2 or up to 5,000. Motels, 300up for short time LOL Good restaurants to try: Man Hann at SM North and Megamall They also have Manang at Megamall Yellow Cab Pizza
