    I always smuggle food into movies. As a woman, it's pretty easy to do with a purse. If i do get the popcorn, I share it with someone.

    I eat before I go. I don't like to eat in the dark. It makes me feel like I should feel ashamed.

    I am all for drinking martini's at the movies in a reclining chair. That sounds like a lot of fun. (better than doing it at home)

    Usually, I tell the guys I don't want popcorn and then eat all theirs. They hate that. LOL If I'm thinking before I leave the house I'll grab a mint balance bar.

    I only really go to the drive in

    but if I am going to a regular theater I just bring in whatever food I want in my purse or I do not bring any food at all

    I go all out, get a small popcorn WITH butter and candy. My hunny buys the nachos and hotdog combo every time we go! lol. I dont smuggle stuff into the theatre, though it is expensive as hell - I dont want to worry about picking up food before going in. I just go to enjoy myself and not give a crap about money, or calories.

    When I was younger, I would smuggle in a smoothie from planet smoothie. Lol...there was one right next to the movies and I made sure to bring a tall purse. :)



    Now, my husband and I just get a popcorn and share or I get sour patch kids.

    I smuggle all my goodies to the movies (huge bags of chips, candy, chocolate, soda, slurpies, etc)
    Once my friends and I brought gyros and tacos. LOL.
    Now, the only thing I smuggle is a large bottle of water. -sigh-

    we bring my big purse and have those one serving popcorns already popped, liquorish and water bottles when I go to the movies. its tempting to eat everything with butter on it once you walk into the place but I feel more in control when I have my stuff already in my bag. :drinker: of course that was up north, now that I am in floriduh I am not sure about going to a movie theatre there might be some weird old man trying to shoot at us. uggg

    I tend to stick to pretzel bites or large soft pretzels they offer from pretzel maker at our local theater. Little high on the sodium count, but so worth it.

    I smuggle in all beverages in my purse and under my sweater. I like the pretzels, popcorn, candy and cheese pizza. I'll share... just as long as you don't wanna **** up my popcorn with butter and a whole lot of popcorn seasoning. I came to eat the popcorn not the condiments!

    We go frequently (2 young kids) and I bring the sumo diaper bag full of treats! Sippy cups for kids with a giant waterbottle for refills. tupperware containers for dividing popcorn (they refuse to share!) hand wipes, stuffy animals (one usually falls asleep) and a change of pants for my son who insists peeing his pants is worth NOT missing part of the movie (he is only 3 lol)
    I may bring a diet pop of somekind, but i rarely get popcorn or candy- its just too hard to measure and keep track of consumption for me.
