Each has its own niche.With friends theater is better, with family sometimes home is better to watch a movie.

I’d always prefer to save a buck and watch a movie at home but I really enjoy going to the movie theater. The experience is so much better in my opinion. I just do my best to avoid the popcorn and soda. Avoiding the junk food is my answer.

We go to the drive-in in the summer, it is $15 for our family of 5 to get in and they show 2 movies, but we usually get movies from the public library; you can’t get any cheaper than free! If it is a new DVD that we can’t wait to see, we will rent it from redbox for $1.

I don't watch TV or movies in the theatre. I go out of my way to find free movies, music, and TV shows online. http://www.rajshri.com has some free Bollywood movies (100% legal) with English Subtitles. I really liked Swades. I watch family guy and american dad on hulu.com too.

Anyways, if you're really cheap, you can find good stuff online that's both free and legal.

Does your community have a dollar theatre? I'm fortunate enough to have one, and I've noticed with the recession that it's parking lot is packed, especially on weekends. Most of the blockbusters (and many of the less popular films) make it to the dollar theatre. That way, you get the experience of seeing it on the big screen. Sure, I'm spending a buck, but the experience is worth it. AND, I turn everything off in the house before I go, so I do save a little electricity. .-= My Frugal Miser´s last blog ..The First Step: Assess Your Situation =-.

Since I’ve been able to get free movie tickets from swagbucks.com, we were able to see all of the summer blockbusters that we wanted to see this year. Movies are a big part of our family, so I made sure to find ways for us to see these for free or cheap. I also get movie gift cards from mypoints, so that takes care of popcorn, IF we want it. I usually make sure we eat a big meal before we go.

If we do miss a good movie, we wait until redbox releases a free movie code and use that to rent.

We attend, as a family, only 1 or 2 movies a year in theaters. The rest we check out from the Library. I am very familiar with our library and have figured out a way to get on the hold list as soon as the library puts it in their system

I think it depends… if I really want to see it, I’ll go right away to the theater, but as a week or two pass I’ll usually forget about the movie all together. Usually, I end up watching most movies on DVD with friends that have Netflix accounts. I can’t do the tv-movie- I’m a chronic channel flipper!

If it’s a movie I want to see I go see it. It is different watching the movie in theaters and it’s the whole experience of it and a night activity.
