The Movies

Ahh...movie theatre popcorn, is there anything better?? Well I went to a movie this afternoon and before we left, we decided we did not need any food. There is a wonderful Chinese buffet in the same building as the cinema and Kenny REALLY wanted to go there. We are trying to save money though, so we both said NO!

As we were standing in line to buy our tickets, the smells were wafting around us. We walked past the concession stand and then noticed a sign saying any 8 items for 7 pounds. Well Kenny could not believe the deal and had to get it! Needless to say we did end up getting food - Nachos, popcorn, a hot dog, chips, a pop, water, a kitkat bar, and a mini ice cream pot all for 7 quid! I kept telling him I couldn't eat much because I didn't have many points, but he assured me he was quite hungry.

I got to choose what I wanted. I had the popcorn (no butter, no seasoning) and a bottle of water. I guess it wasn't that bad. When I got home I figured out the points and found my popcorn was actually only 3points. Not so bad at all! I guess I will be able to give in to my Movie popcorn addiction after all. It also kept me from picking at his more fattening chocolate, nacho and ice cream treats!
