Nobody in a relationship wants to hear “What do you want to do tonight?” That question always leads to a back-and-forth of half-baked ideas until you’re both tired and eventually settle for another night in front of the TV. If you’re looking to spice things up with your significant other, this date jar is the perfect way to try something different. Simply decorate your jar and take turns filling it up with fun and exciting date ideas. Next time date night rolls around, pick an idea out of the jar and treat yourselves to a new experience.
