Open up a separate savings account for the sole purpose of using the funds for romantic trips and getaways with your Favorite Person. Have as little as $5 or as much as say, $50 diverted from each paycheck into your Love Fund automatically. This way, you are less likely to miss it (since it comes out before you see it) and you may be surprised at how steadily it adds up to a useful sum for fun! Think of your Love Fund as an investment in future enjoyable and valuable memories.

(TIP: Online savings accounts render the best interest rates when compared to standard brick & mortar savings accounts, typically at several percentage points more. You can learn more at Flexo’s blog on personal finance.
