Summer movies for free or cheap 2015

I just love today's tip. It's that time of year again! Summer is coming, many kids will be out of school soon, and many theater chains are getting ready fun Summer special offerings for as little as $1 or less!

Grab a pencil (or your phone) and make notes in your calendar. Remember to get to the theaters early because for many of these special offerings, it’s first come, first serve seating (All the details listed below are subject to change, so be sure to check the theaters' websites to stay updated, thanks!):
