Now I don't feel the least bit guilty bringing in my own goodies.

Even when my daughter worked at a theater in high school and we got in free.<br />The most outrageous thing I ever smuggled into a movie was, along with two of my cousins, we each smuggled in a portion of strawberry shortcake and put it together in the theater.

::...it's so expensive to see a movie nowadays.<br /><br />::::sigh::::<br /><br />When I went to movies with the now teen, we'd always go to the last movie before 6pm because that was the bargain matinee. He and his girlfriend go to that one, usually, unless I have free tickets...lol...<br /><br /><br />I'd bring along bottles of pop, but we ALWAYS have to buy POPCORN!!<br /><br />Always buy the HUGE bag to share, lots of butter and then a FREE refill before we leave! <br /><br />He still brings me popcorn after a movie...lol...laurienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-42361952334721422962010-11-16T18:20:21.166-06:002010-11-16T18:20:21.166-06:00No, I don't sneak stuff in to the theater. Bu...No, I don't sneak stuff in to the theater. But we don't buy popcorn, etc. very often. For certain movies, we will. And this one is one of those. But we aren't going to get to see it for several days, we usually are in the theater the first Sunday one of the HP movies is out, but we are just impossibly busy this time.

(I mean, they already let us in for free, and they have to pay the staff.)<br /><br />I read some kind of trade article about movie theaters once. It explained how the whole thing works - the way the theaters get the movie (how much they have to pay), etc. The jist of it was that concessions are the ONLY money maker. (In fact, if a theater has paid $100,000 for a movie and they only earn $75,000 in ticket sales they actually lose that $25,000.) It was interesting. Too bad I dont have a link to it!Sarah and Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618358656098944111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-68798668289124691922010-11-16T12:35:32.529-06:002010-11-16T12:35:32.529-06:00So jealous.

Ugh. Oh, and I totally buy my candy at Big Lots before we go in.
