Another cent plops into the jar, but our January savings didn’t amount to half of what we thought they would. It looks like we’ll have to re-plan our Valentine’s Day…
Most of us are counting the pennies as the official day of loving approaches, but we don’t want to scrimp on the sentiment. Have you ever heard the expression, “It’s the thought that counts?”
Exactly. We’re here to help you plan one of your most romantic, exciting Valentine’s Days yet and you won’t be breaking the bank.
1. Create An Atmosphere
Your living room/dining room will be the chosen place of seduction tonight. Light a few candles and dim the lights. Place a few flowers on the table and set the table for two. Throw a few classic love tunes on in the back. You’ll have a five-star restaurant atmosphere created within moments…
2. This Is Gift
Another panic-stricken moment… but we have a solution for you. If you’re cash-strapped this Valentine’s, why not consider the “voucher” idea? This involves you writing down a few “I Owe You” slips for your other half. A week’s worth of housework? A guilt-free day out with the lads? A few not-so-subtle gestures of love?!
3. Mmm, Delicious
Don’t worry about the penny-scrimping when it comes to your meal. Pop in to your local Centra (there are 460 stores nationwide) and pick up a Centra Table For Two Evening Meal Main And Side Meal for just €6. And there’s a free dessert thrown into the bargain too between Monday, February 11th and Saturday, February 23rd.
Choose from a range of seven main courses, five sides and three desserts including chicken breast with mozzarella and bacon, tender steak, garlic potatoes, honey roasted root vegetables and white chocolate and raspberry dessert shots. There’s a menu’s worth to choose from…

4. And, Relax…
So now it’s just to crack open a bottle of wine, experience the romance with your other half and enjoy…
