A 1 lb box of 2-inch deck screws is sufficient to screw down ONE 3/8 inch 4×8 piece of plywood.
Screws around the perimeter = 3 inches apart
Screws through the middle = 6 inches apart
So- if you have 10 boards to screw down, buy more than 3 boxes of screws.

I’m with Cathy. I thought it was a honeymoon reference.
Good luck with the floor too.
BTW, did anyone suggest that you countersink and puddy over the screw heads?
