I'm a coupon junkie, not in the extreme couponing sense, but I hate buying anything without a coupon. That includes any forms of entertainment. Thanks to Groupon, LivingSocial, Moolala, and others getting great deals is easy. Almost too easy. After you purchase a deal, you get an expiration date as well.
I got a great fandango deal (I've previously used it so when it came back I got it again) for two fandango movie tickets for $9. Pretty hard to beat that price, the cash value is $21-$25, so I purchased several of them.
Then I realized on Monday that they expire on Friday (today). Cliff and I ordered tickets for two movies tonight, and 1 on Sunday afternoon (I had three expiring codes).
Baby went off to Mamaw's house and we headed to our movie date.
First up: Colombiana
I really wasn't expecting to like this one at all. Figured I could sleep through it, but as it turns out I actually really enjoyed it. She's quite the bad ass.
Then we watched Cowboys & Aliens.
What an absurd mix! However, with the cast line up I knew it wouldn't disappoint. Awesome movie! Well, the aliens were really freaky for my taste, but the well thought out story was paired with stellar acting. And secretly, I'm a sucker for anything with Olivia Wilde.
My movie taste might suck, but our $46 dollar entertainment was actually only $18 and I was pleased to spend every penny.
Two movies in one night kinda felt like being a teenager again.... except my body was so much more tired and sore afterwards.
