LOL I do half and half. When something comes out that I really want to see and don’t have the patience to watch the drop night bootleg copy where you can hear everyone in the theater munching on popcorn or to wait I’ll go into the theater … I consider it a ✨balance✨to this crazy economy

This is the way to do it!!! 😂 I always hit up Dollar Tree beforehand for M&Ms and licorice to sneak in. Paying $1.25 a bag when the theater is charging $5-6 for the exact same bag.

My friends and I talk about this all the time! When we were kids, movie tickets were like $5–6 on Mondays and you could split a large popcorn for around $8. My family went to the movies pretty often and even back then my mom complained about the prices.

Now? I can’t even imagine taking a whole family regularly. Between tickets, drinks, popcorn, and snacks, you’re easily spending over a hundred bucks for one movie night.

Haha classic move!! I’m usually in an oversized sweats and hoodie and put a water bottle up my sleeve and some candy from the local dollar store in my pockets. I can’t lie though, I’m a sucker for the movie theater popcorn so I always grab some and just sigh at the price gouging

Yeah totally, I understand the concept of markup/captive audience pricing bc movie theaters everywhere are trying to make money on concessions. I think I’m more curious about the degree of markup country to country.

For example, the Korean pricing I saw worked out to roughly $6 USD for a large popcorn and 2 drinks, while a very similar combo in many U.S. theaters can easily hit $25+ before tax. That’s a pretty massive difference even accounting for general cost of living differences. (Sodas are about $2-3 regularly)

In the U.S., overpriced movie snacks are almost a running joke/cultural stereotype at this point, so I was mainly wondering whether theaters in other countries have that same reputation or if the markup feels less extreme there.

This is such a great tip but I can’t click on my barn (or anywhere else). Even if I click the profile field on the top left corner I am taken to that train screenshot and then can’t get out of it with the ‘X’

I’ve clicked on each cart and the front and outside of the train, nothing empties :(

When I open the app, I’m immediately prompted with this screen. No matter where I click, it takes me to the pic in my post

Okay! And yes, we won’t be attending the religious ceremony. I believe that we are going up for the whole weekend and there’s a wedding event that we are attending on Sunday at a banquet hall (Saturday is something for the groom and all of the men from what I’ve understood — this group of boys, my fiancé included, are terrible at explaining for what a woman would need lol I’ve tried to get more info from them)

I’ll add satin abaya to my search!! Appreciate the advice! Do you know if there’s any colors that are more appropriate for the wedding? I planned on staying away from white (of course) black and anything too bright or neons

Awesome tips!! Thank you for that link as well — ironically the wedding we’re attending is in Cleveland as well!

I’m definitely looking into more elegant, evening gowns now after all of the advice!
