Let’s face it – summer can be expensive. Even if you’re not sending the kids to an elite camp or planning a long summer trip to explore the Grand Canyon or spend a week at Disneyland, the little things add up. A stop for ice cream here, a trip to the pool there, a visit to a community carnival. However, your trips to the movie theatre can be free this summer! That’s right – no admission fee on special summer kid movies.

 

Check with theatres in your area to see if they offer free shows. Here are some of the movies you can see free in June. True, the movies are usually ones that are already out on video, but it’s always more fun seeing them on the big screen. Get there early, seats fill fast.
