Dating on a budget?

So being a college student and low on funds, I'm trying to figure out ideas for dates that require little to no spending in the bay area. I'm sure most people have been in this boat before, so hopefully you guys can kindly offer some good suggestions.

TIA

Really depends on the girl. Is she the type that likes nature/scenery or more of the clubbing/mall shopping/lots of make up type?

If it's the latter, i can't help, but if ur girl likes to just hang out and chill, movies at home are great. picnic at the park, if u have a dog, go to the beach and play. you can also go for a scenic drive .

if you guys go out alot (eating, movies, etc...), most gals would be down for splitting pay, i mean, if it's a serious enough relationship

but as for your low budget dating thing. many places you can go for free. just SF alone you can spend few days there without paying anything but gas. but gas, food, and parking are something to consider. there is also santa cruz and monteray (sp?).
