Family movie night at home is a fun and frugal method of entertainment. But when was the last time you actually enjoyed a quality family movie on network television?
Sure, you could run to the nearest Redbox or rely on Netflix, but it would be nice to know that on a Friday night you can simply turn on the TV to enjoy a quality movie with the whole family. Walmart and P&G have teamed up to fill this need for a family-friendly made-for-TV movie. Yes, you read that right. Walmart is now in the movie business. Their first production airs this Friday night, April 16th on NBC at 8/7 central.
Secrets of the Mountain is all about bringing back family movie night. Although I have not yet seen the film in its entirety, several of my fellow Walmart Moms recently screened a sneak peek and were pleasantly surprised by the action-packed, wholesome storyline.
Check out this quick trailer and hear what a few of the moms had to say about it:
Grab your popcorn and the whole family for some frugal fun this Friday night. You can also win a bundle pack of the movie and soundtrack (produced by Randy Jackson) right here!
Enter to Win:
1 “Secrets of the Mountain” Prize Bundle from P&G and Walmart

If I know we are going to have a movie night a little in advance I will make Peanut Butter Banana Pops. After peeling and slicing the banana down the center I make a “sandwich” using peanut butter. My daughter also likes to add chocolate chips or jelly to hers. Place the popcicle stick in between the two halves then freeze. A Quite and yummy snack that won’t leave grease stains on the couch.

Usually, movie night involves pizza on paper plates on the living room floor! It’s just not the same if you “sit” on the couch (lol).
One of my ultimate movie snacks is a LARGE plate of Doritos covered w/ taco sauce and LOTS of shredded cheese, pop it in the microwave to melt the cheese…
….it play and gather round the plate…DELICIOUS!!!! not figure friendly but definitely worth it 🙂
Popcorn is the classic at our house.

Still a relatively new reader, but I sure appreciate all you do and how hard you work to help us be good stewards of all that is entrusted to us by Him. Thank you! A movie isn’t a movie without popcorn, is it? Crystal Light is a great choice to wash it down (no caffeine or few calories).
I like to eat cheerios with a few chocolate chips. Just enough chocolate for my sweet tooth.

I love popcorn during a movie!
I like to eat a big bowl of cereal. 🙂
favorite snack is buttered popcorn!!!
My family just loves the traditional popcorn. However after microwaving it, I add melted “real” butter on it! Tastes even better than move theater popcorn. We enjoy this with soda.
