These days the costs of going to the movies can easily be greater than the cost of a meal. You pay for your movie tickets at the Box Office, you then walk inside and are then immediately temped with an array of snacks and drinks. 3 dollar candy bars and 5 dollar cokes are not uncommon. And it appears that the size of a small coke has been increased to make the movie goers more content. Not sure what is wrong with a drink half that size for half the price, other than it does not make that much money. The average cost for popcorn that is purchased at the movie theaters is $4.75, that’s the cost of an inexpensive meal.

Of course the movie cinemas are not the only ones getting in on the money making seen. You can get Netflix online with a monthly cost of $4.99 for 2 DVD’s a month, you can go to Block Buster and rent movies for 4 dollars each, or you might try RedBox at your local McDonalds, Seven Eleven,
Walmart, Albertsons, or Walgreens for a DOLLAR a day. You could watch 4 Redbox movies for $4 during the course of a single day from the comfort of your own home, with meals, snacks, drinks with plenty of elbow room and a bathroom that does not have a long line. With the money savings of going to the theaters, you could actually purchase a Large flat screen TV and a home theater sound system in short time. Whatever your choice, have a good time and enjoy your movies!
