Don't rent movies. Try borrowing movies from friends and family. Libaries have a good selection of movies that are OK for kids too.

Our cable has "On Demand" and you can pick through lots of movies to watch and they're free. If you have cable, check into that.

many movie rental places rents the movies out for 2 overnights or more. Why not trade movies with a friend? You both could see lots of movies that way for very little cost.

Rather than spending the money to go to the movies, our family goes to our local store and rents movies. A big savings!

If you are close to 1 or 2 of your nearest neighbours you clould have a movie weekend. We use to do this all the time. I week one family wld rent and 4-5 movies and we wld watch them a walk them back and forth to each others houses, the next week someone else wld be the renter. That way we all got to see the movies in the comfort of our own homes.. Very economical too.

I have freinds that borrow movies from me, as I have a very big collection. I not only have VHS but DVD. All my friends have to do is ask to borrow them. The only condition is that if they are lost, damaged, or otherwise unusable that they have to buy or get another one.

Only had it happen to one DVD which someone kept because they wanted the movie (not my friend but a roommate).

We save money on movie rentals by going to our local library and checking them out. You also get to keep them longer without worrying about late fees.
