Do you like movies?

Reader: Oh yes

And do you like free things?

Reader: Oh hell yes

What if I said you could enjoy an experience that combines the two?

Reader: You mean like a movie about a cheapskate? Wow, that sounds interesting!

Uh, ok that’s not exactly what I meant.

Reader: You mean there’s no such movie? Now, I’m disappointed. 

But you can watch movies for free till November!

Reader: Are any of them about a cheapskate?

Well, no.

Reader: Then I’m not interested.

OK, aside from this strange reader, I’m sure many of you here would be over the moon with Golden Village’s latest promotion.

Children Under 12 Can Watch Movies For Free At Golden Village Cinemas Till 20 Nov 2020

If you’re over the age of 12, I’d like to invite you to get the hell out of here, because I have absolutely nothing for you.

But if you’re a child under 12 (as opposed to an adult under 12), you should be excited because you can watch movies for free at Golden Village Cinemas (GV) till 20 November this year!

According to GV, the cinema company is giving out free tickets to children under 12 years old with every purchase of two standard adult tickets.

Young Reader: Wait, so I have to go with my parents? Lame.

Life likes to dangle happiness before snatching it away from us, young one. You’ll see. Take what you can get.
