Do you take(sneak) food into the movies?
I always do, I dont pay though ridiculous prices. I can buy the same candy for a $1 a box at the store and bring a water bottle.I use to put popcorn in a baggie when the kids were smaller...

I'll sometimes buy popcorn there, but always take my own bottled water.
When I go to the Drive In (yes, we still have one!
) I take my own popcorn and drinks.

When I go with my friend, she prints off a coupon for popcorn and pop at a really good price. But, even so, I buy may buy movie popcorn because for me, there's nothing like it. If I'm in the mood for candy that night, then I buy it elsewhere. I just cannot see paying that exorbitant price for candy!!

I always bring paper lunch bags with me, so we don't have to share the tub of popcorn. I let my son bring a sweet treat if we have something in the house. We rarely do go to the movies due to the cost.
What is funny is that we have a small mall near here, with a budget movie theater. The mall also has a Dollar Tree. And right in front of Dollar Tree, they have a stand that has a sign that says "movie theater candy" and it is the boxes that are the same you would get at the theater!We had us, we had him, now we have everything.

I buy popcorn and pop there but buy candy to take in. I love the taste of the popcorn and only get it once or twice a year. If I don't go and my kids do they buy the refillabe tub and bring it home to me.

I'd rather the drive in than a regular movie theater tbh.. I can't sit in a movie theater for long. I can't handle it with my restless everything syndrome and if I want to talk to whoever is next to me with out feeling like an ahole I can lol

what makes everyone feel that they are "sneaking" food into the the theaters? After all, it is a free country isn't it?
