FREE Movies!

By -
It is no secret - going out to the movies now has become tougher for a lot of families as the prices have jumped on tickets and at the concession stands!

One way around that is by getting FREE tickets to advance screenings. Keep in mind one thing - usually it is only for major cities. You will NOT find screenings for every movie that hits the theaters but may get lucky for a great "Date Night".
  • Gofobo - You simply enter your zip code and how far you would travel then select a movie to see if there are free movie tickets available near you. Be sure to register so they can contact you if a new screening becomes available in your area!
  • WildAboutMovies - (drives me nuts - it has a ton of ads!)
  • SeeItFirst - This is where you can find free movie tickets for Disney movie screenings!
  • GetScreening - This site lets you search by both movie or city/state.  

  • AdvanceScreenings - Select a movie and see if any free movie tickets are available for the screening in your area.
  • FatWallet- This is a forum thread on movie screenings that are available around the country and how to get them.

    • Usually, you get the tickets in your email, and simply print them off to take to the theaters. You NEED to get there early as the ticket does NOT automatically mean you are "in" - they over book!

    It's important to sign up for everyone's mailing lists, follow them through social media, and check all websites regularly to make sure if there are free movie tickets available for a screening that you get them before they are all given out.

    If you DID NOT get a ticket - Many people who show up to these screenings frequently have extra passes in their possession, or may only be using one of the two admissions on the pass. Several people attend screenings this way. Simply start at the front of the line and work your way back, asking the people lined up if they have extras. Please be kind and don't pester anyone, if they ignore you or are rude, simply move on.
    Many screenings are promoted/sponsored by a radio station. The radio station's representatives frequently have extra passes available upon request. Just look for the young interns hanging around outside or in the theater's lobby wearing t-shirts with a radio station's call sign.

    Good luck!

    I know this sounds strange -- and yummy at the same time, LOL You need to know the family history to "get it". We are part German, part English, part Irish and part Tennessee Hillbilly. Seriously. Did you ever see that black and white movie of Gary Cooper's called Sergeant York? Yes, my family comes from the Dyer/Yorks -- same family. Some of the "family recipes" are too far out there for even me to try... But this is a pot luck favorite. SUPER Easy and SUPER Easy to make healthier. We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs
