Spring is the perfect time to go on a date, but with rising inflation, many are restricted by the cost of living. Yet couples still find ways to go on dates, even if their bank statements the following morning make them cringe!
An analysis of five important factors, including a three-course meal for two, a bottle of wine, and cinema tickets, revealed the cheapest cities across the United States for a date. Well, guess what all my single North Carolina friends, there is hope! A North Carolina city made the list as one of the cheapest U.S. cities to go on a date.
The greetings card marketplace, Thortful.com, examined the costs of the following factors in 177 cities across the United States; a three-course meal for two, a bottle of wine, a bottle of beer, two cinema tickets, and a taxi ride. What are the cheapest and most expensive cities?
