Let’s Stay In: Have Date Night at Home with Exede

Going out for a night on the town with your significant other can be expensive. Between the cost of parking, dinner at a nice restaurant and tickets to the show, it can turn into quite the pricey evening.

Instead of shelling out the big bucks, opt for date night at home with the help of satellite internet from Exede! Still wondering how it’s possible for you and your honey to have a fantastic night without ever leaving home? Let’s take a look:

Dinner and drinks: Endless possibilities
When it comes to dinner, there’s simply nothing better than a home-cooked meal. Impress that special someone and show off your culinary prowess with help from your reliable Exede internet service. There are more than a handful of websites that offer recipes for delicious dinners and tempting cocktails – the Food Network, Allrecipes and the food and drink section of Pinterest are among our favorites.

This is also ideal for those that might not be the world’s greatest chef – select an easy-to-follow, step-by-step recipe that includes pictures or even a short video. This foolproof strategy will ensure you and your partner can enjoy a delicious meal without the restaurant’s high price tag.

Skip the movies
Going to the movies is another date night staple, which can get a little expensive. It’s much cheaper for the two of you to select a flick from the comfort of your own couch. Best of all, there’s no need to get dressed up – you can even take relaxation to the next level by making it a pajama party! And with Exede’s internet and DIRECTV services, you have an array of available choices for entertainment.

Exede customers can bundle their services with DIRECTV for a low monthly cost for an entire year. For a full 12 months, you have access to a number of movie channels, as well as your favorite TV shows and sporting events. This makes date night easy – simply select a movie from the guide, sit back and enjoy the show.

Your Exede internet service gives you even more choice when it comes to movies with streaming services like Netflix, HBO Go and other platforms. These websites allow you to stream content directly to your device. Although streaming services can eat up quite a bit of data, there are a few ways to keep you from going over your allotted amount. Using a lower resolution, for example, can help save on data. Check our tips here.

Exede also makes it easy for you to check on your available data – simply visit my.exede.net to view your usage. This way, if you’re nearing the end of your billing period and you still have a few extra gigs of data, you can stream without worrying about exceeding your limit. In addition, Exede’s unique Free Zone – available with Exede Classic, Evolution or Essential plans – gives you a free pass when it comes to data use. Depending on your plan, the Free Zone allows for unmetered internet access from midnight to 5 a.m. or  3 a.m. to 8 a.m. – perfect for night owls.
