How to get 2 for 1 cinema tickets all year for just £1.01 with Meerkat Movies...

Today I’m going to tell you exactly how you can get 2 for 1 cinema tickets for a year with Meerkat Movies.

Before I start though, I know I’ve told you this before and I know this is an old money-saving hack but it’s a good one so I thought it deserved its own post this year as I renew mine rather than tucking it away in a five frugal things post as I did last time.

Basically, if you weren’t aware then Meerkat Movies is something you can benefit from when you compare and buy a qualifying product from Compare the Market. You can then get 2 for 1 cinema tickets every Tuesday or Wednesday for a whole year which, based on prices for the cinema these days, could be a HUGE saving for you. There’s even been an improvement to the Meerkat Movies offer since I last renewed – you can get 2 for 1 in lots of restaurants too which means you can have a half-price date night. 😉

I thought I’d tell you just how easy it is to sign up to Meerkat Movies today and give you a bit of a step by step guide as to what I did to purchase a qualifying product and then set up your Rewards account. For me, it took less than ten minutes from start to finish and that’s taking into account the fact that I was taking screenshots to share with you.

How to get 2 for 1 cinema tickets all year for just £1.01 with Meerkat Movies

1. Compare Prices

I went for travel insurance and selected the option for UK cover for one day for just one person which took me about twenty seconds. I then was presented with the cheapest options:

The three cheapest options were £1.01 (based on the date I checked – 9 June 2019) so I just picked the top one and selected ‘More Details’ at which point I was directed to the Coverwise site. It took me about a minute to fill in my details and purchase the policy although that’s because I wasn’t checking the details of the cover – it’s just the cheapest price I was looking at for the purposes of getting this deal. Usually, I’d never buy a policy without reading into it a bit more.

2. Claim your Reward

I immediately went back to the Compare The Market site and logged into my account to see if my purchase had tracked already and I got this message…

I clicked on ‘Claim your reward’ and had to enter my policy number and who I bought the cover from and then clicked to submit. I think this stage can take up to 48 hours from what I read but the meerkats must have been working hard when I submitted mine as it was literally instant.

All of the terms and conditions are at the bottom of the pages at this point in the FAQ section but it honestly is super simple.

3. Download the app

The only way to get your Meerkat Movies codes each week is through the app so download the app for your phone and log in using the same details you use to log in on Compare the Market.

4. Enjoy

I love a good trip to the cinema but I don’t think I’d go if it was full price – knowing I’m there on a two for one deal makes it much more enjoyable. 😉
