Is there a limit? If I buy 6 boxes of cereal with codes, can I get 3 movie tickets for my 3 kids to go to a movie for free?

No there is not a limit.

The codes expire 60 days after you enter them, but the fine print says you don’t have to enter them until Dec. 6th 2013! That is a great deal.

Does the box say anything about movie pass on the front or back of box?

YES, you will see it ON the outside of the box. It’s big enough to see easily.

The pictures above do not show the boxes with the codes inside.

Once you get your movie cash, go to fandango.online, and use them to buy $10 fandango gift cards. (The numbers and pin work as though credit cards.) The , you have a never-expiring gift card

Thanks so much for the tip. My theater never can enter all the numbers correctly and I always have a hassle at te box office.

Reply
Steph October 15, 2012 at 8:24 pm MST

Have you done this recently? I ask this because I went on Fandango, and it looks like the minimum gift card amount you can purchase now is $15 and the maximum value of the free e-movie cash ticket is $12. When I put the numbers in, it declined it because the free movie ticket value ($12) is less than the gift card price ($12). Maybe they caught on or maybe I’m overlooking something. Help!

Cheri November 5, 2012 at 2:38 pm MST

The only place to find $10 Fandango gift certs was if you chose to buy them in bulk. I noticed that this option is gone too, so I can’t find any $10 either.

Whoops…I meant “…is less than the gift card price ($15).”

Kroger has select GM cereals 2 for $5 this week – buy 5 eligible products get $5 off your next purchase – so at most it’s like getting them for $1.50 each.

I used MovieCash a few months ago… the deal with free movie tickets for buying Kotex tampons (weird…). I dont remember any restrictions on the ticket (new releases, etc) and it worked beautifully!

I found the specially marked boxes at Target, they only had Cheerios with the free tickets which was fine with me because I love Cheerios. They were $3.79 for the largest size box that they had and I used a $1 off of 2 coupon. Bought 4 boxes total and came out to just over $12. Definately a great deal for 4 large boxes of Cheerios and 2 free movie tickets for my husband and I. Thanks for the great deal Collin!

Reply
Michelle October 14, 2012 at 10:27 pm MST

Just an FYI, from previous experience. This deal is awesome, but be aware it does take a little bit of time to enter each code and then print each ticket. Last year, I waited to print the codes until we were ready to go to the movies, because once you print them they expire in 30 days, and I didn’t want to print them ahead and have them expire. There were 6 of us going to the movies and it took about 1/2 hour, almost made us late to the movie, lol!

Also, it takes a long time to redeem the ticket at the theater. Each ticket is like a credit card, so they have to enter each one manually into the credit card machine. Not knowing this, I held up the line on a fairly busy night. So, the next time I used them, I printed them hours before and went to the theater during the down time, while all of the movies were playing and no one was buying tickets. When we went back to the theater, we just went past the ticket counter and handed our tickets to the usher, worked like a charm.

Sorry for the long explanation, but I thought it would be helpful information.

Yes there is a big banner across the whole lower portion of the box that says “Free Movie Ticket” or something like that. I have a photo I don’t know if I an post it on here or post my link?

Same thing happened to me with the Schick Razor codes. The codes said they are invalid BEWARE. When I called customer service they are giving me the runaround and told me to do is just wait till it onlinees in the email.

Susan November 18, 2012 at 7:35 am MST

I found them at CVS, and Walmart. The boxes are very easy to identify. It is written write across the front in a blue box with a film freel and says FREE in big letters followed by movie ticket underneath. These are going to be very hard to do with a sale since it is the huge boxes. I got the Cheerios in the 18oz box. None of the sale seem to work with them. They are 3.59 at Walmart and 4.99 at CVS. Bummer. Last time they did this deal it wasnt the huge boxes.

I am so glad someone said the date was 2013 cause I thought it was 2012 and the promo was almost over!

It does take time to enter, and redeem at the box office. Looke around at your stores, I found it on Reses Puffs at our Walmart and Cocoa Puffs at our Wamnart grocery. Then on Cheerios at our other Walmart. It is a higher price than I like to pay for cereal, but with the movie ticket onlineing for free, makes it much better! Good luck finding them.

We accidentally recycled one of the boxes before checking to see if the code we copied was correct. Just tried entering it and unfortunately it didn’t work. We have one working code and just need one more, if anyone has an extra code they aren’t going to use we’d really appreciate having another so we can treat our little ones to a holiday movie. Please email us at [email protected].

Thanks, Merry Christmas!

What’s great about my local theaters is that they count the e-movie cash toward their local rewards program. So, check to see if your theater has a rewards program and you can continue to get savings etc. Also, if you’ve already bought your boxes and haven’t opened them (and by some chance not used the general mills coupon), you can take your boxes back, get a refund re-buy them and still use the coupon.

Reply
James T. February 5, 2013 at 1:28 am MST

Also, while you are saving on the movie(s) don’t forget to clip the box tops for eduction off the top and send them to a local school of your choice. You might as well donate to education as you’re saving. If you don’t want to use the box tops send them to me and I’ll get them to the right place (I’m having follow ups to this message go to my e-mail). But, please don’t let them go to waste.
