A Thrifty Movie Night

The following is a guest post.
We love to watch movies and that includes new ones, however as a family it costs roughly $35 just to get tickets. This doesn’t include food and drinks. By the end of the movie we may have spent a whopping $60, but this only happens on a rare occasion. We’ve […]

What a waste of money - or is it

Before DH and I had kids, we used to go to the movies all the time.  But then again, the movies used to be cheaper.  So now the New Batman movie, The Dark Knight, comes out Friday night.  I really want to see it.  I was so sad when I heard that Heath Ledger had […]

Jumpin’ Jack Flash anyone?

OK, I am a movie buff and I am totally stumped!  It’s driving me crazy.  Does anybody know what movie has a main character dancing to Jumpin’ Jack Flash and looking pretty silly doing it?  I can see it plain as day in my mind.  I think it’s a late 80’s early 90’s movie but […]

Kids-In-Mind Keeps Parents Informed

 
 
       
I just found out about a site called Kids-In-Mind.  This site gives parents the skinny on what’s going on in a movie.  Each movie receives a rating of 1-10 in the areas of sex, violence, and profanity.  Very detailed information is given, including which profane words were used, what the actors were wearing, if there is […]

Top 10 movies for date night.

Recently I shared some great tips on how to go see a new movie on the thrifty side.  My DH and I used to go see an average of 3-4 movies a month at the theater.  That was pre-diapers and baby sitters.  HAHA!  Now, we tend to rent movies and pray we return them on […]

Movies on a budget. Tips for seeing a movie for cheap.

I love date night.  I just don’t like to shell out a bunch of money.  Most people have family that can help out with babysitting, so they don’t have to pay.  We don’t.  The blessing in our life is that we have a couple of teenagers that love watching our daughter.  We pay them in […]

Interested in some great entertainment on a reasonable budget?

Now that DH and I have K, our vacations will probably be drastically different. No more trips to the beach that require last nights on the beach and last mornings sleeping in. Now, I’m guessing it includes sand castles and floaties in the ocean. The only thing we have to figure out […]
