Send A Free Telegram via Cowboys & Aliens!

You’re probably too young to remember telegrams; little messages sent over radio and telephone lines through morse code. You’ve probably heard of them or learned about them in school. Well, Universal Studios and TelegramStop.com have teamed up to allow you to send telegrams to friends for free! Find out how after the jump!

TelegramStop.com is a site that allows you to send old style telegrams all over the world. It usually costs $5.95 to send one, but during the special promotion you can send one for absolutely free* by using the special promo code CA2011. Just go to the special Cowboys &; Aliens promotion site to type out your message! Afterwards, you can choose to have it sent now or at a later date, which is pretty cool. I sent a couple that were supposedly arriving from 1885 (can you guess which movie I’m referencing?).

*You are allowed to send up to five telegrams for free.

The telegram will take about 4-8 days to arrive at its destination. Who will you send one to?

Cowboys & Aliens hits theaters and IMAX July 29th.
