Free Saturday Night Movie Series
Is anyone actually paying full price to watch movies this summer 2010 with all the free and cheap movie deals we’ve posted?
Here’s another one for free Saturday night movies at Christ The King Anglican Church, followed by dessert, beverages, and a discussion, if you want to stay on.
Or just go for the movies:
- July 24: In the Heat of the Night
- August 7: Babette’s Feast
- August 21: Tender Mercies
- September 4: Sullivan’s Travels
Movies start at 6:30 pm – just show up.
The movie evenings are entirely free (we’re told by the church that they don’t even request a donation) and if you want, you can stay on for dessert and coffee and tea after the movie, along with a discussion led by a movie industry pro. The discussion may include the moral of the movie, ethics, how the movie is made, and seeing as this is at a church, may naturally include some conversation on the film from a religious perspective.
If you don’t want to stay on for the talk, it’s fine to leave straight after the movie, no strings attached.
Christ The King Anglican Church is located at 5300 2nd Street NW.

Free Redbox Movies till June 30
Rent two movies at Redbox and get another one night’s movie rental completely free – you can use this rent-two-movies-get-one-free promo code offer as many times as you like till June 30. Bring on the film fest…
Here’s how the Redbox free night’s movie rental deal works:
- Rent two regular price movies from any Redbox kiosk in ONE transaction
- After paying with your card, enter your email address when prompted at the checkout
- Within 72 hours, they’ll email you a code to use for a free one-night DVD rental
- The code is valid for 7 days
That’s it! You can take up the offer as many times as you wish during June 2010, as long as you rent two movies in a SINGLE transaction – don’t get ‘em out separately or it’s no deal.
Also, you can only earn one free rental a day, so if you rent four movies at once, you still only get a code for ONE free movie. What I’m saying here, people, is rent Redbox movies two at a time, on different days, for maximum freebiosity!
Blu-ray and DVD movie rentals both qualify you for the promotion (not games) – the promo code you’ll get is only for movie DVDs (not Blu-ray, sorry!)
And remember, use the promo code within 7 days of receipt, and it’s valid for one night’s free rental, so make sure you return your movie on time to avoid additional charges.
The Redbox rent-two-movies-get-one-free offer is not available online, only at Redbox kiosks. Find the nearest Albuquerque Redbox. Then get the popcorn in….
