At Gofobo, we like to celebrate Halloween a little differently. Instead of free candy, knock on our front website for a little treat because we are giving away free movie merchandises! These wicked prizes may not fit in your candy bag and we also advise you not to try to eat it, but we promise that it’s not a trick!
This month’s round of sweepstakes will allow you to add a whole variety of movie DVDs to your growing collection. For our comic fans, you won’t want to miss our DEADPOOL in 4k Ultra HD Blu Ray prize! Though he isn’t the conventional hero, this movie is a popular pick amongst our members. On the polar opposite end of the hero spectrum is brave Frodo in THE LORD OF THE RINGS set. And for all the characters in between, DRAWN TOGETHER, television’s first “animated reality show,” throws together eight cartoon archetypes, including a party-hearty superhero, a naive princess prone to singing, and a sexually ambiguous anime hero, in a house where cameras are on them all the time. If you are collector of classic movies, also keep your eyes on the Dreamgirls prize! A handful of winners will get to bring home a Blu-ray copy of DREAMGIRLS and one special grand prize winner will also receive the DREAMGIRLS book signed by author Bill Condon. Of course, we are also celebrating PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES as it makes an on-time arrival for its 30th anniversary too!

1. Join rewards program.
Most big movie theater chains, like Regal Cinemas and AMC Theatres, have offer point-based loyalty programs. Members can earn free concession size upgrades, free refills, discounted tickets and even free pre-screenings. For those who are regulars at the movie theater, it is a good idea to invest in these reward membership programs. You can also sign up for newsletters and become an email subscriber to still receive some discounts as an alternative option.
2. Go in the morning or early afternoon
Matinee pricing is more cost-effective than evening showings. You may be able to purchase a ticket for less than $10 at certain screenings! In addition to saving money, theaters are often less crowded during this time of day providing you a quieter environment with plenty of seats to choose from.
3. Bring your ID with you.
When purchasing your tickets, you can shave off a few dollars off of the regular adult ticket by bringing an ID card with you. Most theaters have senior and student discounts that also apply towards concessions and snack items, providing that you can show an appropriate identification.
4. The very middle row isn’t always the best seats.
Sit two-thirds of the way back in the center of the row. It’s the sweet spot where you will hear the full effect of the sound and audio. This is also here audio engineers level out the sound, making it the ideal place to sit in the theaters.
5. Buy a large and share.
While each kid may want their own bag of popcorn, it is cheaper to buy the biggest size and split between everyone. This cost-effective trip will give you happy kids in the end.
