Oh yes!! It's for the kids though. We do usually buy a large popcorn and large soda... they are refillable for free! That's a deal! I refuse to pay such high prices for candy!!

I vote YES and I think it is Morally Wrong to charge me 8 bucks to see a movie ( which by the way I can own for 15 bucks in 3 months) and then 3 Plus dollars for some soda and 5 bucks for Popcorn!!!!! So For 2 people that is at a minimum ( no candy ) 32 Dollars!!!
What a rip off!!!
So yes I bring a napsack and some candy and soda and I buy the Pocorn>
When I take my son to the movies, I just plan to spend about $50.
The two theatres we go to the most have way more than just popcorn and candy. We can also get pizza, Nathan's hotdogs, burgers, fries, elephant ears, chicken tenders, cheese sticks...
I have, but not all the time. Even so, I'll still buy something else at the concession stand like popcorn or a Coke.
Actually, the concession stand is where the movie theatre makes the bulk of its money. I heard one time that the theatres only share maybe 10% of the admission during the first week or so and their share goes up the longer the movie is in the theatres.
The only thing I bring is a bottle of water. I don't really eat when I go to the movies, not even popcorn usually. Ocassionally I'll buy my kids popcorn, but never the candy. They know better and don't even ask for it. I'm not interested in taking out a second mortgage so my kid can eat junk in the movie theatre.
I do, but it's not about the money. It's about the Sno-Caps! My theater doesn't sell them, which I think is morally wrong because no one should have to eat popcorn without Sno-Caps!
