Organize a tour, check the available exhibits and shows, and give your boyfriend an experience he’ll remember for life!

City Tours

One of the simplest and most beautiful things you can do for your boyfriend for his birthday is to take him on a city tour! We know what you’re thinking. What’s so special about walking around the city we both know? Well, it’s about you making the experience special! Make sure to do something different and not to repeat the things you do regularly. Take him somewhere you haven’t been yet or do something different in places you’ve already visited. Try different food, drinks, and snacks. In a word, have fun! Set up a plan for all the new things you can try and do in your city and stick to it. That will ensure a new and super fun experience!

Picnics

Don’t go in debt trying to take your boyfriend on a luxurious journey around the world. Sometimes, the simplest things are the best ones! For example, we recommend you to take your loved one on a picnic. It’s not that important where you go. You can make it in nature or in the middle of the city park, it doesn’t matter! All it matters is that you organize everything, bring your boyfriend’s favorite food, drinks, and music, and that’s it. You two will have a perfect, romantic celebration!

Simple Things

If everything listed above doesn’t fit your needs, take a look at these everyday activity suggestions. You’ll surely find something interesting!

Breakfast in Bed

Breakfast in bed is one of the most creative ways to celebrate your boyfriend’s birthday with no money. It’s also very simple and doesn’t require too much time and effort. All you need to do is to get up early, make a unique meal, and serve it! You can make anything your boyfriend likes, eggs, French toast, pancakes, cereals, etc. Your boyfriend will appreciate the effort and fully enjoy his morning! Just don’t forget to decorate the plate to make things more romantic.

Dinner

You just can’t go wrong with cooking a meal for your boyfriend. We recommend a romantic dinner! No, you don’t need lots of cash to prepare it. You can go with simple dishes. They are just as tasty as fancy meals, and we’re sure your boyfriend won’t even notice the difference! He’ll be so thrilled you spend some time preparing a romantic dinner for him that he won’t even pay attention to anything else. Remember, love and effort are the things that count, not how much money you spent on someone’s birthday.

Love Notes

If you two are romantics, don’t miss writing love notes and letters to your boyfriend. You can use famous quotes or your own words of love and appreciation. We recommend leaving them all around in his apartment so he can explore them all day long. Of course, you can wrap the notes together and give them as one gift or organize a scavenger hunt. The choice is all yours, just remember that you have options!

Spa Night

Spa night is one of our favorite ideas on how to celebrate a birthday with no money. If you don’t have the means to take your boyfriend to the spa, organize one at home! Give him a massage, let him relax and ease the stress from everyday duties. He’ll be grateful and love you for it!

Coupons

If you can’t decide what to do for your boyfriend on his birthday, let him choose! Make coupons for your boyfriend and write activities on them (e.g. watch a movie, play a game, give a massage, etc.). Your boyfriend gets to choose what he wants to do and when. It’s one of the most generous things you can do for him on his birthday!
