during the summer, our movie theaters do free kids movies on certain days of the week. all the movie theaters in our area do them on different days and play different movies. the movies are ones that are already out for home viewing but little kids just want the experience of the movies and if they haven’t seen them then it is still new.

If you can wait a couple of months, you can see just run movies at a discount theatre cheap cheap cheap. I go to one that has a $2 Tuesday.

Check with your employer!! Mine offers “group tickets” that can be purchased through HR and they simply take the money out of your check. I get 2 movie tickets with no restrictions on when you can go or which movies you can see, plus 2 snack vouchers good for small popcorn and small soda pop for $21.50.
We make up for “movie weeks” by working the odd 1/2 hour stretches of overtime that come available here and there.
Sometimes, we get the tickets free as performance incentives, too!

I microwave popcorn, a bag or two, and toss in my backpack prior to heading out to a matinee. A quik stop at the 99 cent store for some necco wafers or m&m can be had for a low price. Dont forget to toss a drink or two in you pack too. Works great.

I haven’t gone to the theater in years! $40.00 for two people is way too much for me! Last time I went to the movies it cost exactly that for a family of four and I balked at the expense! We usually get movies free from the library! I have seen many excellent movies and haven’t had to pay a penny! I am also enjoying the many shows on PBS they have some great movies as well! The snacks I get at a discount store so we don’t go broke watching a movie!

check the matinee. My local theater has $4.50 or $5.00 matinee, and usually the theater will have very few people in it.

These are great ideas. I know that the cable company Optimum Online also offers free tickets to the movies on Tuesday nights if you participate in their Triple Rewards package, which is using Optimum for cable, phone and internet. If you do the research and it turns out to be a better deal than what you currently have, free Tuesday night movies is a nice bonus. Of course, if it’s not a good deal for you, the free movie doesn’t really make it worth your while.
