Grab a bottle of the Santa Rita Sauvignon Blanc for $9.99;  it’s fruity, floral and available @ Everything Wine.

First Date Score

$35 buys you a blank canvas so that you and your suitor can get your Van Gough on. When the paint dries, you have an original piece to hang over the fireplace! Check out Raw Canvas for more details.
