Tuesday cheapy movie night at Regal

I don't know why theaters have specials when they do such a lousy job of promoting them. Tuesday is bargain day at many Regal Cinemas. $5 for the movie and $2 for a small popcorn, which you can upgrade for just a buck or two, depending how far you want to go. You do need a Regal loyalty card, but that is free and takes just a few seconds to open. If you are going for the bargain, be advised that special movies are not always included, so best to find out first.

Really would like to go to "less new" movies.

The snow is supposed to pile up again, so the husband and I got out for a movie while we could. The husband is a movie fanatic, meaning we usually see movies right when they come out. (Do NOT even ask me about how we managed to get married on the weekend of a major movie opening...geesh!).
While we didn't pay full price for anything at tonight's performance of "Inherent Vice," it was certainly MUCH more than a discount show. Let's see, we had a free ticket from our Regal Cinema's membership, a discounted AAA admission ticket ($8) and a free Regal Cinema's membership small pop that we upgraded to a large ($3, I think) so that's $11 for a movie and pop. If we went to the local discount cinema, we could get a movie, pop and popcorn for $10 for both of us. If only the husband could show a little self restraint. Sigh. Delayed gratification just isn't his style. Except for home improvements. He's all about delaying home improvements.
