I have evolved enough as a blogger that I now simply delete e-mails which expect me to share, for free, promotional information with all of my readers. Charities excepted, but not always.
However the cinema-lover in me just had to let you know about Cineplex’s new program called Family Favourites.
A different family movie will be offered exclusively at participating Cineplex theatres each Saturday morning at 11 a.m. (local time). Family Favourites will be offered at a discounted admission price of $2.50 for all ages. A portion of all ticket sales will be donated to the Starlight Children’s Foundation. (See, a charity is involved, which also softened my resolve).
The movies are classics, not new releases (think Jumanji, Shrek, ET, Babe, Madagascar and The Neverending Story) but are still a great and economical way to get out of the house and enjoy an old favourite as a family.
More information, including participating locations and a listing of which movies will be shown each Saturday, can be found at the Family Favourites website.
Love the prices! Starlight also donates amazing kits to the ER for families when a child is admitted. They have things like crayons and colouring books, but also deodorant, mouth wash…very practical things. It is a great charity to support!
