    every time....it's the main reason I carry a large purse, so I can have a bottle of water and snacks with me at all times!

    I don't even care about having snacks at the theater, but my husband always wants me to carry my big purse so I can take his snacks. There's really no sneaking at my local theater though. People walk in with bags of food and even take-out plates.

    I bring popcorn with me as well as protein bars. My wife has a huge purse and we bring two of the smart pop single serving bags.
  • i do! but it's their own fault for not providing healthy snacks!

    I never let my wife carry the snacks in her purse. I don't want my snacks getting chummy with feminine hygiene products.

    I do. I refuse to pay the crazy prices the movie theater charges. And I really don't like their popcorn anyway, so I bring one in my bag (light salt no butter) and bottle of water

    I sneak snacks everywhere where they're not allowed! I even sneaked a whole tub of popcorn chicken (back in my unhealthy days) into a skating rink and they didn't notice! :laugh:

    me. i am not spending as much as the ticket over again just to get a sprite and a small popcorn. besides that, they have NO healthy options. so yeah, i'll take in a bottle of water and a bag of pre-portioned snacks.
  • yep.

    gotta start carrying a purse to bring air popped popcorn..but i usually just bring gum and a water bottle (if i wanna risk getting up during the movie)

    Yup. In a big giant purse.

    Y'all know why they charge so much, right? The theater itself gets very little of the ticket price. The concessions keep the doors open. I had a buddy that was a theater manager. He'd let us in free if we'd buy a ticket's worth of concessions to help him out.

    Agree with it or not, that's why they're so expensive.
