My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years. We don't have very much money to go out on dates since we both work and go to school. I love love love seafood. I have since I was a little girl. A seafood date or two would do us both some good. Who knows, maybe it will convince him to finally pop the question!

Hi! I would like to win this give away for my husband. He is serving in the USMC and has been deployed since last July. He is coming home in January and we will have one week to catch up before I give birth to our second baby girl. He took me to the Marine Room on our second date five years ago. I think it would be a wonderful surprise for him since he is the one who always has to do all the planing. Wish you all aver Merry Christmas and a New Year full with Heath and happiness . Agnes

My family just moved here to Santee in Oct n we haven't had the chance to enjoy San Diego's finest restaurants. We are from PA so of course we are on a very tight budget with just starting work here n how expensive things are. Please consider us so we can enjoy a date nite out without our kiddos thanx.
