    Not that often. But when I was in my early 20s, I had a friend who used to sneak beers in his jacket. He'd get ripped during the movie. He also used to smoke in there. But that was back in the '80s when people were not quite as militant about smoking.

    Even when I ate poorly I quit trusting theater food after a now ex-friend got a job at one and mentioned the horrors of what the "butter" machine looked like when it needed cleaning and the obscene things done with their nachos and other not pre-packaged stuff like hotdogs and the jalapenos that are offered in a cup. Not going in my mouth.

    "Obscene"? Explain, please.

    well if they let me in for free I would buy their food. I think the healthiest thing that theatres have are twizzlers, and those aren't too healthy
    bwahahahaha! me too!

    I don't usually go to the theaters, but when I do and see people with there overpriced theater food I just think-- "SUCKERS!".
    I think this is totally acceptable and A LOT healthier !

    NEVER. I'm now on the phone with national movie theater treat company and reporting you.



    But yeah, always. I never buy movie theater treats, too expensive. Is there another reason to carry huge over-sized purses?

    I go to the movies almost every Tuesday (cheap day, tickets are $5)

    I ALWAYS bring my own drinks, as I do not like soda.....and if I want candy, I will usually bring that from home or the dollar store....if I am having 'dinner' there, I will go to A&W first and grab a burger (no fries), and then I usually buy a popcorn at the movies, as it is SO good, and not too expensive....

    For a while, Tuesdays here were combo cheap night, and you could get, a soda, popcorn and your ticket for $10 even.....I miss that.....

    Greasy popcorn and a flat Coke = $14

    Veggies, hummus, pretzel sticks and a bottle of water = priceless
