    $5 for a movie ticket? My local AMC charged me $9.50...for matinee. The concession prices really are extortion but what can you do? Either don't eat or just smuggle stuff in. My ex and I used to do that all the time. Pop our own popcorn, put it in baggies, stuff it in her purse, and that was that.

      I suppose the easy alternative is to do without food for ... almost three hours including travel?

        I usually go to a matinee and eat lunch beforehand. If I get popcorn I have to get a drink and then my bladder is screaming at me 3/4 of the way through the film.

          Or have lunch/dinner before the film.

          We did that the other night. Went to the very nice tavern attached to the cinema, then went and saw John Carter about an hour after that (boyfriend lives maybe 5-10 minutes away from there). Didn't need food, we only bought a slushie each.

            last time i went out i got the kid's pack. for what i wanted it was pretty good really, including the price. maybe 5-6 something tops


            then again i suspect it was similar to a "kid's meal" at a fast food place... where the serving size IS the right size for a single person etc.
