It’s not what you might expect, but it’s sort of amazing.
My latest way of saving money is to “rent” movies from the library, where they are 100 percent free. I make up a reserve list just like I do with books and simply go get them whenever my movies are in. My husband and I have had two movie date nights now for free. Even the gas can’t be counted, since we go to the rec center, which is attached to the library, all of the time anyway and pick up our movies and books on the way.
Last night we watched the movie Drive, starring Ryan Gosling, and let me tell you something—it was not what we expected at all. If you watched the trailers, you might have expected a fast, hot, Fast and the Furious type movie. I don’t watch those movies, but I’ll watch anything with Gosling in it. So far he hasn’t let me down and has yet to choose a crap movie to be in, and funnily enough, I trust his judgment.
