The Concessions

This is what I hate.  When I buy a diet coke at the movie theater, I want a small size.  I don't want a large.  A large takes two hands to lift, and thus is not a relaxing beverage drinking experience.  Today I went through the whole deal about wanting a small drink, rejecting two large drink bargain offers.  After all this drink talk, the guy handed me a huge ass drink.  All my careful explaining was for nought, basically.  A small peeve, but a valid one.

Agreed. We ate lunch at Sam's Club today, which was lovely. But the ONLY size drink they offer is a 32 oz. styrofoam cup that you can't even cary with two hands because it is too flimsy. And that's too much liquid for a 7 and 3 year-old.

Speaking as a former theater employee... they are just hoping you are a "secret checker" and if they up-sale to you on popcorn or drinks they get a cash bonus.

So today I went to another movie, but I brought a water bottle with me in my backpack. A lose win situation. I don't get the diet coke with extra ice in a smallish cup. But I have a manageable beverage drinking experience.

Yes, KVS, it was about a year ago that we went on that great trip.
