Lemme guess, going out on a date is a lot cheaper in the US than it is in
The Netherlands.

For comparison, a three-course meal and a few drinks in a reasonably good
restaurant will easily set you back NLG 50 per person. A ticket to a movie
theatre goes for about NLG 16 a piece.

So, dinner & movie for two will easily cost you some NLG 125-150. How much
would a similar date cost me in the US?
