Growing up I remember piling into the van, jeep, and assortment of cars throughout the years with my family and heading to a good movie. If you are looking for something to do with friends, family, or a significant other an automatic idea (to me anyways) is to do just that. These days it's an easy 10.50$ in the Midwest just for one ticket and once you add popcorn or any other sort of treats- you're beyond most 'casual' date or outing pay range.
Keep in mind that summer nights are great to be out in and if you are looking for a pocket saving way to view some new flix search around for your local area Drive In! For instance in the Minneapolis area there are a few, the same goes for the St. Louis metro. It might be a bit of a drive out of the city or to another town but they are guaranteed to start at dusk and most play THREE films. More often than not you can get 3 films for the price of one-if not cheaper!
Some other perks to this great little outing are the ability to bring your own coolers, snacks, and all the fixings to get cozy with the people with you. The early films usually play kid friendly flicks while the later play a range from family friendly to adult only. Additionally you can pile up to save on gas, double date, or bring multiple cars for a more convenient hangout with a large group. Between the movies activities range from grilling to drinking to blaring music that someone brought on an old school boom box or tricked out car.
Take a blast from the past, get your money's worth, and enjoy a great summer night out on a budget with this great idea!
