Movie Theater Prices Don't Have To Be A Horror

By: John Reed Home | Arts-and-Entertainment


The term coming to a theater near you is an exciting phrase for millions of people. Regardless of whether you are a fan of drama, horror, comedy or whatever, Hollywood has a movie that will satisfy.

That being said , going to the movies is an event that one looks forward to. However, doing so can be a relatively expensive outing. Though society has been somewhat conditioned to pay for it without thinking about it. With the cost of a movie ticket hovering between seven and ten dollars. It quickly becomes apparent that a date or family outing that involves a movie can be a costly one.

But again, if you are like me, you make it past the price of the movie ticket only to realize that the ticket price was just the teaser. If you want refreshments with your movie, you are due for a price shock .

Prices for refreshments have soared to unbelievable heights. A box of candy costs three dollars, a bucket of popcorn four dollars and fifty cents, a soda three dollars, hotdog four dollars, a bottle of water two dollars. No, let me say that again a bottle of water two dollars.

When you take a date with you, a single trip to the movies can cost you over thirty dollars. If you take a family of six (meaning 2 parents 4 kids), you might as well re-mortgage your home before you go. Seriously though, dont mortgage your house, but you might need to sell a bit of your jewelry to pull the costs back into range.

If you see all of the blockbusters that come to theaters and purchase snacks, you could spend over 120 dollars per week or per month depending on how many people you take with you. Add gas, dinner and your night out has become a major investment.

Movie theater ticket and food prices are out of control, says Tina Landry. I sneak snacks in if I want them. I know that it is wrong but so are the prices they charge for snacks.

Though many movie-goers grit their teeth and pay extraordinary prices for what they could buy at the store for a fraction of the cost, there are others that simply refuse to be blatantly over charged for their entertainment needs.

Lots of movie-goers are turning to the internet to help finance their insatiable appetites for Hollywoods products. The Movie Theater Toolbar is changing the perception of what is affordable. By allowing movie goers to easily earn money online to feed the entertainment need monster, the Movie Theater Toolbar eliminates the need for movie goers to cringe when they see the prices at movie theaters rising as they have done so consistently in the last few years. Using the Movie Theater Toolbar allows movie to go to or rent as many movies as they want without breaking the bank.

The Movie Theater Toolbar interfaces with TypoBounty dot com, a website where website owners offer cash rewards for web surfers to find and report errors on their website. Errors such as misspelled words, punctuation flaws, missing graphics and many more errors, if found and reported are worth two dollars or more each. Many websites have more than 20 errors.
