Eating At The Theater by Ogaga4Luv(m): 11:39pm On Feb 20, 2009 |
My Little rant on food at the Movies, it has become so crazy what you pay for Popcorn and a coke at the movies anymore. For instance last night someone I know paid over 5,000 franc for a chawama and a drink. I myself have paid that much for popcorn and a drink. Here recently I have noticed more and more people sneaking food in. I think that is such a great Idea. Pretty soon a coke will cost 1,200 franc and forget bout the popcorn. I know this where the theater makes their money, but the Literal raping of its customers has got to stop sooner or later. If they are going to charge that, then have better food. Maybe have an under_grand rd somewhere in the theater, or some other fast food company. Anyway, these are my thoughts. I am interested in hearing what everyone else has to say on this matter, One_Love ,naija!! |

~Tell me about it!!I aint exactly bothered about buying any food if am not w/ my son but w/ kids you just have to do the kiddie options. . . Might as well eat out on the money that goes into Popcorn,Dorito's & Drink!!

actually we areint force to buy some food,but the major thing here is when Show start you wont like any distarction. . .what they sell at the Theatre in Abidjan are Drink ,Chawama ,porpcorn e.t.c i love aeting before show,but something during show hours your find out your belly wont stop asking for more foods,and these are the main reason some people are sneaking out to buy some food during show,some people can get annoyed since sone maybe disturbing their attentions.,Wow! alot of experience @ the movies!! |

~Funny I like eating while watching the movie,even at home when i do home movies,i have my popcorn,coke . . other munchies . .there are other food outlets within a couple of minute's walk from the cinema so i suppose some people choose to either eat afterwards,sneak in their muchies or buy the food at the Cinema! |
