How I did it: Every time my novio and I would get paid, we would make a limit, like, $25 that we were allowed to spend on movies. Having been without cable or internet for just over a year (that's what we get for being poor college students), we were already watching the same movies over and over, and then realized that instead of going out to buy the newest movies just out for $25 anyway, we could go to Walmart and buy five $5 movies that had been out for a while. Yes, there are some that you've never heard of, and ones that you should never buy, but sometimes, you really catch some great movies that you forgot about and miss seeing, and some movies that you're willing to try $5 on for the first time. I don't really mean to sell Walmart, but that's just worked for us and our budget.

Lessons & tips: keep your eyes and ears open for movie sales. i think you can even go into video rental stores, and you don't need a membership to buy movies on sale.

Resources: Walmart. Internet.
