PSA: Dating is making you skint

Whether they’re good, bad, somewhere in between or downright awful, dates cost money. But did you know exactly how much? According to research by Plusnet,* we spend £68.46 per date – and with the average single person going on one date a week, that’s adding up to more than £3.5k per year. Yep. Almost four grand on awkward small talk. Want to drop your dating budget? Opt for walks, museums or free talks, and save your cash until you’ve figured out if they’re worth the investment.
