It's Frugal Friday!
Last weekend my hubby and I were looking for something fun to do. We had a little extra pocket money and wanted to go somewhere. What kind of fun could we have as a family that wouldn't be too pricey?
My hubby is crazy over movies and loves going to the theater, but that can add up fast! $10 a ticket (plus a visit to the concession stand) was more than we wanted to spend. Then it hit us! We have always wanted to go to an old drive-in movies to check out the old-time fun our parents had always raved about. A quick visit to Drive-ins.com showed that in our entire state only one was still open. It was a half hour away! The tickets were just $8 per adult and kids were $3. We could bring our own snacks and beverages, too. So much cheaper than the movie theater. And here's the kicker...
Those prices were for a DOUBLE FEATURE. Yep, 2 movies! What a deal! Next time your family is bored check out a drive-in for some old-fashioned family fun.

Sounds like fun! we have one about 45 minutes away that we keep saying we are going to, but never do. We need to just load up the kids(and food!) and go!
