Just how badly off are you?
You could do romantic home-cooked meals. Each of you can make a part of the meal, light candles, dim the lights, play some good music. Then settle down and watch a movie, you can get redbox films for $1 a night. Keep it just one night.
Depending on where you live, you can go out and have a picnic...or a romantic walk in the park. When DH and I were in So Cal we would walk on the beach at night....or sit up on the hilly areas of the city looking down at the rest of the city. *sigh*
I don't know if there are any free attractions where you live...museums...that type of stuff.

Indoor picnics
Lover's game (from adult stores)
Get a hotel room, set it up like Paris or just a very romantic setting and surprise him with it...It's not Paris but at least it gets you out of the house...Prelude to all of this could be dinner. And this is dessert. Twerk it.

I love board games, bike riding, summer free concerts in the park, museum,free or inexpensive wine tasting around the city, cultural festivals (sample free food and drink), movies before 5pm, love letter's via snail mail (they are the best), flea markets. Read the free entertainment paper if you city has one. In Pittsburgh we have the "City Paper".
I usually listen to the yt folks I work with to see what they are doing, that is how I find out about fun free stuff. They have some undergroung pipeline of free activities I swear. The ex and I actually made beer. It was horrible, but we had so much fun.
A indoor naked picnic always makes a man smile. Don't worry about your body, I am plus sized and I have never been turned down. Naked and Woman together is enough.

DH and I can talk for hours. We don't really need to be entertained. Are you at that point in your relationship yet?
Buy some alcohol, make some fun drinks together, and rent the funniest movies you can find. The alcohol and the comedy is a great combination.
Play scrabble. It takes hours, it's fun, and can be quite intimate.
Exercise together. Working out at a gym together is fun, as well as running outside or going for a long walk. Have a dog? Take him with you. A dog always provides a good laugh cause they do some stupid things.
Go to www.epicurious.com and pick one of their menus, go shopping together for everything you need to create the meal, and then cook it together while sipping wine.
Just like a book club, pick up 2 of the same books, agree to read the same number of chapters, and then spend an evening discussing it.
Work on a project together. Like planting a garden, painting a room, etc.
Give each other massages.

I agree w/ the stuff that has already been mentioned. My husband & I can just talk for hours. We also watch movies that we have at home & we play Scrabble (healthynhappy, you are right. It does last for hours). We sometimes go to Target First Saturdays at the Brooklyn Museum. It's fun and free.
Depending on where you live, you can search for free poetry readings & art exhibit openings. There is also lots of free stuff at the Schomburg Museum, if you're in NYC.

Take a long drive somewhere and make stops along the way. Talk, stop at a bakery or cafe, hold hands, talk about your hopes and dreams for and with one another,.......then slowly head back!
Nothing is more romantic then connecting with one another. Love really doesn't cost much when you think about it!

I love intimate picnics by the lake, or on the living room floor.
Make up a treasure hunt for him at home that leads to a romantic dinner.
You can borrow movies from the library.
Get dolled up and dance for him.
Get in the car together and just drive. No specific destination needed.
Long walks in the neighborhood, downtown or somewhere scenic in your city.
Check out newspapers for classes you can take together, or what neighborhood events are taking place.
Leave sexy notes for him to find.
Naughty text messages
Sybaris or a romantic bed and breakfast
Board games
Wine tastings
Matinee movies in a very exclusive part of town, then walk through the neighborhood afterward
My city has a lot of improv plays that are fun and cheap
There is massage school in my city that always has rates and specials going on
