CHEAPER THE SECOND TIME AROUND

submitted by: Charles Quinn

Though not unique, my wife and I used to (pre-baby) enjoy $10 dates every Tuesday evening. Most cities have a theater that shows “second-run” movies–ones that have been in theaters for about 3-4 months – at a drastically reduced rate. In the popular shopping area of Georgetown (we live in Washington, DC), such a theater exists. Tickets are just $3 each all of the time. We skip the market rate theater popcorn, and get a $2 ice cream cone across the street. The area is just blocks from the Potomac River, and a canal runs through the shopping area, which is very romantic to walk along.
