Movies are Free or Cheap All Summer

Movies are either free or cheap, all summer long

Watching movies in the summer is a family tradition in our house.  So when I heard about the free or cheap (like $1) movies at our local cinema we made it a weekly date with our kids.  School is letting out or will be soon across the country, so wouldn’t it be great to know what free or cheap movies are playing for the whole family?

I searched all the major cinemas companies across the US and it seems that they are pretty much all showing the same movies, not necessarily all the same weeks. I also found that some cinema companies have a printable schedule that lists all the movies but also has a coupon for discounts on popcorn or soda.  What a great savings!

So, no matter where you are traveling this summer it seems that there is some sort of free or cheap movie going on at a theatre near you.

These cinemas are participating in the summer movie program near you
