Family Movie Fun You Can Afford

By Harvey Warner


It's always fun for families to get together for a good movie, at the theater or even at home. Hollywood has taken strides to become more family friendly, so families have lots of titles to choose from.

It's easy enough to go online and research any movie available on the market. You can't base your choice entirely on the rating, but you should get a basic idea whether the movie is suitable for your family or not from it. You might wonder sometimes how a movie got a PG rating.

Movies, like most everything else in life, are not as affordable as they used to be. In most cities, the cost of tickets for adults ranges anywhere in between $7 and $10, and children's tickets go for only about $2 less. Students can use a valid school ID to receive a discount.

Ticket prices vary depending on what time you go to the theater. The majority of theater offer lower prices on matinees. These movies are shown earlier than 5PM.

Some theaters offer super value deals on certain days, and make the matinee price available all day long. Most theaters honor super value days on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, times that are usually slower for the business. Unfortunately, there still is no discount at the concession counter no matter what time you go.

It's always possible to find a dollar movie theater, or in the least one that sells tickets for less. They show the same films as other movie theater but they show them a few weeks later than the other theaters. It's not big deal to wait a few weeks for a good savings.

You might have to forfeit expected comforts such as theater sitting, but you will probably get a discount also on food items and drinks. Discount theaters usually open in old theaters, so they might not be as luxurious as some of the new ones.

Some cities still offer drive-in theaters, which can be a lot of fun for the whole family. Discounts are available for whole carloads getting in at one time, and sometimes even on first-run movies. Many families really enjoy drive-ins, because they feel free to bring their own food and can even sit outside the car on a lounge chair if they so desire. Bring your own lounge chair and feel free to get out of the car.

Drive-In movies are gaining popularity in pools and parks. Some pools and parks make free movies and popcorn available to families. Families are enjoying the benefit of watching the movie while they are in the water or while lounging poolside.

Have a movie night at home for the family. Go a little farther than just renting a movie, and create a movie theater atmosphere. Pop some popcorn for the aroma and darken the room. With a DVD, you're in control and can schedule an intermission for bathroom breaks and snacks of pickles, candy and ice cream in addition to the popcorn.

To save money on movie DVDs join a movie club and get your movies by mail. They will mail you one as soon as you return the other. Some families really like the process of selecting movies together. Movies are a great way to escape and provide the family an affordable night together.
