Is it wrong to sneak snacks and drinks into a movie theater?
Is it wrong to sneak snacks and drinks into a movie theater? Dear Abby says it’s dishonest and sets a bad example for kids.
KIM TEDRICK, Fairborn: “I do it all the time, because the food they offer there is not what I want to eat. I don’t want popcorn and hot dogs and nachos.”
ELIZABETH GOINS, Beavercreek: “I don’t think it’s that bad. People do it because the prices are outrageous. You end up paying more for snacks than to see the movie.”
DAVE LANDOM, Bellbrook: “No, because they’re charging such horrible prices for snacks. It’s ridiculous. I think it’s perfectly OK to bring in snacks.”
CHARLOTTE HARRISON, Xenia: “I’ve done it, because their snacks are too expensive. I think it’s a common practice. A family can’t afford it, so they take their own food.”
LAVONE BERRY, Xenia: “A lot of people do take their own snacks, but I don’t. I usually don’t bother with a snack at all during a movie.”
