Tried to save $12 on popcorn last month and ended up eating lukewarm kernels with a spoon
Last month I decided I was done paying $9 for a small popcorn at my local theater in Reno, so I smuggled in a bag of kernels and popped them in my microwave before we left. I dumped them into a ziplock, stuffed it in my jacket, and 20 minutes into the movie the butter I added turned into this greasy mush. My girlfriend refused to touch it so I sat there eating soggy popcorn with a plastic spoon I found in the car while she bought her own bucket. Has anyone else tried to beat the snack prices and totally lost?
