I mentioned it last year, and now that it’s summertime 2010, I’ll say it again: Free movies. So, call around, or Google your city, and find out whether or not theaters in your area are sponsoring a free movie festival over the out-of-school months. Our theater is showing Hotel for Dogs, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Monsters vs. Aliens, and more. No charge whatsoever — unless you want snacks and drinks — and two movies are shown each week, over the span of two days! We love it, and we think you will, too.
