For all you movie lovers, the *HOT* Groupon movie tickets deal is back! Today only, the Groupon Seattle Online Deal is valid for 6 Movie Tickets for just $30 ($60 value) thru WeeklyCinema!! WeeklyCinema partners with Fandango which means their tickets are valid at lots of cinema screens nationwide!

Fine print: Limit 1 per person. Must redeem Groupon at WeeklyCinema.com by 12/11/10. Tickets must be redeemed via Fandango within 90 days of Groupon redemption. Can be used in one visit or multiple visits; can be used for any regular movie up to $10 (not including IMAX and 3-D flicks).

Are you ready to get in on this deal?
*Go here and login or sign up for a Groupon Account (if you haven’t already)
*Under “Visit More Cities” (top of site) find Seattle
*Click on it (since this is an online offer, it doesn’t matter that you don’t live in the area)
* Click on the Online Deal in the right sidebar
*Click on “Buy” and complete your order
*Online Vouchers will show up in your account under “My Stuff” and then “My Groupons”

**To redeem your tickets, just head on over to Weekly Cinema, click on the special link at the top left corner of the site that says “Did you buy a 6-pack on a deal site?”, enter your unique voucher code, and then your tickets will be saved on Weekly Cinema until you’d like to redeem them.

(Thanks, Stephanie!)

    This is actually showing up as a 4 hour French cooking class in Seattle – not for tickets… bummer this is a great deal

      Did you look off to the right hand side? It should be listed there, too.

  2. Meirav

    I think it’s not as good a dela as before, because the value of the ticket is only up to 10$ (so for example we would have to add the 1$ for each adult for an evening show + 1$ fandango fee for each ticket)

    Marianne-

    The movie ticket offer is not the main Seattle offer today. Look over in the right sidebar of the Seattle Groupon page and you’ll see an Online Deal that states “$30 for Six Movie Tickets from Weekly Cinema (Up to $60 Value)”. Hope this helps!

  5. geraldine

    didn’t see it under seattle 🙁

  6. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Has the groupon offer ever included 3D movies? Darn, I didn’t get the one that included 3d movies a while back (was it groupon or something else?) and now I want to get it… I might sit tight to see if another one pops up some time.

  7. Elizabeth

    Movie prices around here start at 12.50 does that mean I would have to pay the difference if I purchase this deal?

  8. heather

    Everyone needs to be aware that this site “Weekly Cinema” is a horrible company to work with.
    First they make it extremely difficult to get your movie codes so you can redeem them. I have tried for 4 days now there site has been down forever and I just noticed they have changed the rules for package deals from Groupon and Tippr you must call to redeem your codes on the phone not online and they are only open 10:00 -5:00 PST.
    BUT wait I am calling now and their message says that they are closed at 12:02 Eastern Time WTF………..

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      I agree. My husband and I were planning on a nice halloween movie. I went to print the tickets off on OCT 31st at 800pm and the stupid site was down. WARNING YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ACESS THE SITE AT ALL TIMES!!! 🙁 So, I’m very disapointed in this. AND their customer service is NO help..they told me sorry the site was down, but if I was purchasing through them the site is up and working. What bull. Plus you have to go through 100000 different things to redeem them. No thanks, not doing this again.

  9. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I agree – be VERY careful buying this deal…Check and ensure that your theatre is listed on the fandango website as Online Ticketable…if your theatre is listed but says Online Ticketing Not Available, you WON’T be able to use these tickets/coupons at your theatre.

  10. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    It also expires Dec 18th so it wouldn’t make a very good Christmas gift anyway. Bummer.

  11. heather

    Oops my time is off an hour anyway I just called Groupon and Customer Service did say that there have been lots of complaints about “Weekly Cinema”

  12. Julie

    Question…Does the fact that it expires in December mean that I just have to input the code into the Weekly Cinema website before December or does that mean that I have to use the tickets before the expiration date? I would love to get this if it means that I will have like six months or something before I have to use all six coupons. I don’t know if there will be enough movies I want to see at the theater within the next month! Could someone please clarify this for me? Oh, oh, oh, also is it really going to cost me a dollar to do my transaction online with fandango? Thanks for your help! Trying to spend my money wisely!

    • heather

      I think once you redeem them you have 3 months I just redeemed 10 into codes to use on Movie tickets .com and the exp.is Feb 2

  13. Greta Lords

    I totally agree with all the complaints. I’ve tried to redeem my tickets on movietickets.com but it never works. i guess i paid 5 dollars for nothing, because it never works.

  14. Megan♥

    Didn’t the last promo that ran go up to $14/ticket? $10 won’t cover a regular movie here. 🙁

  15. heather

    Ok guys I got thru to Weekly Cinema the customer service lady was very nice and friendly she said they were having tech problems right now and they hope to have the online redemption up soon. Now I will say I think its still a good deal just buy the deal and redeem the codes as soon as possible just not feeling much confidence in this company. It seems that they are trying hard I just wonder if they have gotten in over their heads with Tippr and Groupon.

    As per Greta I was able to redeem 2 tickets on Fandango I now have 10 that I put onto Movie tickets so Believe me if they don’t redeem I HAVE the time to complain and take care of it.

    As for Erika you could buy them as a Xmas gift and just redeem the codes and you could present them in a cute way as a gift. I just redeemed 10 codes and I have till FEB 2 to use them so I just might give away a few codes for Xmas. Depends how many great movies come out. 😉

  16. heather

    Greta
    here is the customer service # 1-866-241-0510
    they are open 10:00-5:00pst
    I called when it was 10:00 their time (I am est) and got through in 5 min.
    5$ shall never go to waste……

    Hope that helps.

  17. Stephanie

    I see cooking classes, Zumba lessons and dry cleaning. From these comments I’m kinda glad I can’t find it lol

  18. Bekah

    I’ve bought the Tippr deal twice and everything went very smooth for me. No complaints here.

  19. Ashley

    Me too! I bought two sets on Living Social and have redeemed one and I did it about 20 mins before we left the house headed to the movies. Everything was great! I did get the ones that go up to $14 and they were ok for 3D too… so these are really not so great… most movies are coming out in 3D now. At least the kid ones that we usually go see 🙂

    The ones on Tippr were also redeemable through 12/31 and needed to be used by 3/30. I haven’t had any issues with the site yet. Fingers crossed.

  22. stacy

    I was charged for these on my credit card last deal, but they are not my Groupon? I’d be a little skeptical.

    You can go through ebates.com you can sweeten this deal and get 3% back. I have bought these deals several times and have had no problem.

  25. Debby

    I did the Groupon and Tipper Deal and thought it was pretty easy. You purchase the tickets. through Groupon or Tipper and the next day you log in and get the codes. You then put these codes into weekly cinema and they sit there until you use them at fandango.com. I did this many times without any problems.

    Had 5 tickets left and went to print them through fandango this weekend and only 2 worked. Said the other 3 codes had already been redeemed. That is not possible as I didnt not use them. I carefully printed the codes and crossed each one out at I used it. Not sure what to do now.

  26. Lynn

    I tried to redeem vouchers I had gotted from the Tippr deal on Monday. First the website was down. I tried customer service waited on hold for 36mins right when they opened. Had to hang up to go the movies and pay full price. Later that evening thought I would call again it took 26 minutes to get through. The lady was very nice. I had inquired about the website being down. She stated that since I was not a member the website would not work for me and I would always have to call to redeem the vouchers. She activated my code and they will hopefully work next time I am ready to go the movies. Just make sure you redeem vouchers in advance.

    I purchased these and was charged but they never added them to my groupon account….did this happen to anyone else?
