I am a movie geek! I love being able to see the latest movies as soon as they hit the theater but we all know how expensive movie tickets have gotten. It can easily cost $30 for two people to go see a movie, and that isn’t including concessions!

I put together a few tips that I use so that I can see the latest movies for free! I am talking about the new releases, not having to hit up Redbox on your way home.
I saw about 10 movies in the theater last year, all with movie tickets that I got for free. It does take a little effort but if you are a movie lover, it is well worth it.
Free Screenings
I saw a couple of the latest movies for free by using Gofobo. Before a new movie is released, they will hold free screenings to the public to help get more publicity.
There are several sites that you can look at for these free screenings but I have had the most success with Gofobo. It is free to sign up.
You can sign up for their email list so that you get notifications whenever there is a new screening in your area. You have to sign up quickly for the screening because they only allow so many people to sign up.
This is a hit or miss kind of thing. I live in a large city so I have been to a few of these, they seem to have more screenings in larger cities. The only problem is that you have to get to the theater really early so that you can get a seat. They allow more people to sign up for a screening than they have seats available because some people won’t show up.
Rebates
Half of the movies I saw last year for free were with tickets I got through doing rebates. I did a full post on how I got free movie tickets through rebates, so you can read that for all the info.
Basically, you find products that offer free movie ticket rebates and submit your receipt online. It is really easy to do and you get a code in your email that you can redeem for a specific movie.
This is a great option if the rebates are on items you were going to be buying anyway!
Swagbucks
Another way you can see the latest movies for free is by signing up for Swagbucks. It is free to join and you can earn points for doing online searches, watching short videos, taking short surveys, and more.
You can redeem the points that you earn for gift cards. They offer gift cards to AMC theaters, Regal theaters, and Fandango. They even offer payout through Paypal.
This is one of my favorite ways to earn gift cards because it’s so simple to earn points. I usually earn a gift card every month.
Surveys
This is another option to earn free gift cards. Some of the survey sites don’t offer gift cards to theaters directly but you can still redeem your points for Visa gift cards or Paypal that you can then spend at the theater of your choice.
The survey sites that I have personally used and had success with are: Global Test Market, Harris Poll, Inbox Dollars, My Survey, Toluna, and Vindale Research
I like doing these while I watch TV. They don’t take long at all and you can do as little or as many as you like.
By using any or all of these methods, you should be seeing the latest movies for free in no time. If you have any other ways that you have (legally) been able to see movies for free let us know!
I am always looking for more ways to save!
