I love going to the movies, and one of the best parts of the experience is the concession stand goodies (although the prices aren't that fantastic these days). What goodies do you usually get when you go to the movies?
For me, I've gotta have popcorn. That's the number one thing, popcorn with butter. I also love the nachos and pretzel bites with cheese and a nice big bottle of water. If I'm in the mood for someting sweet, I usually get either charleston chews or twix.

While munching away the popcorns at the theatre, a sudden sense of guil crawl over me. :( The extra pounds that I gained from the popcorns will mean another extra size on my trousers! :P
These days, I'll just keep to bottle water and that's about it.
I guess no food but hot drinks will be a better for me now.

We usually have a soda, spree's or Jr. Mints when we used to go. We haven't gone in ages because it's expensive to take a family to the movies and sneaking in food wouldn't even be worth wild if you can't afford the tickets even.

I'm not a popcorn-guy at the movies. But when I go with my kids, they always have popcorn so I always have a bit. I would normally go for one salty, one sweet, and drink. The salty would vary between a bag of chips or a hotdog if I'm hungry, then the sweet would normally be a peanut M&M, and then a big diet coke.
But I agree with you that the price isn't that appealling so I don't do it often. Or sometimes I would sneak in these food to save a little.

Would you believe me if I told you that I haven't had any food while watching a movie in the movie theater since 1983! But when I did , it was popcorn, plain popcorn. Back then I didn't have butter on my popcorn. And back then , we would get there early , go get the popcorn and drinks , get a good seat and eat the popcorn Before the film! When the prices went through the roof, I just stopped buying it. In the meantime , I got a microwave and I could have popcorn at home! so I now have movie popcorn at home and nothing at the theater.

When i go to the movies i bring a big purse with me to sneek in some candy and a bottle of soda there for im not wasting my money on buying drinks and candy in the movies because they are so expensive and i can go to the dollar store before going tothe movies to get candy and a soda so i try to do that before going and of course to save money too.
If i do want popcorn i do get it because its the best at the movies and with extra butter of course too so its really good. Thats usually the only thing i buy when i go to the movies though.

I prefer popcorn and even the ice creams and some fruit pulpy these can make us enough time pass throught the film.I don't think these are hike prices we can get these in a general and normal prices. So my dear friends while going to film don't take oily food it may spoil our stomach as we don't know with what oil they are cooking.Enjoy all the time.

I always choose for popcorn in butter or sour cream
or sometimes cheese. I also like nachos sometimes.
Then we'll buy sodas.
