That sucks. I always buy my food at a nearby shop, as it's much cheaper.
My suggestion would be to shove some stuff in a backpack and bring it in that way.

Hell no. Then who would buy the $6 box of Raisinets, or the tiny bag of $5 popcorn? Or the $4 small soda, for that matter?

Wow, that's some serious ripping off. Small drinks are only €2 over here. €1.35 if you buy them in the shop along the way.

Me and the Wife go to the movies.
Tickets: $20
Cokes: $9
Popcorn: $5
Candy: $5
Two people to go to the movies costs $39. I could buy two new releases and a golden oldie for that. Alternately that's two months of a Netflix membership and a spindle of DVR's. Yeah, online piracy is what's killing the movie industry.
I do feel compelled to point out that due to distributors demanding 100 to 125% of box office receipts for a film the only place a theater can make money is the concession stand.

I'm still going to wait until after Christmas.
I've got two kids man. Kids who like popcorn, I'm back to smuggling in smarties.

€9.85 over here. So I think we pay slightly more.
