When going to the movies, have you ever been CAUGHT bringing in your own snacks?

No, and I'm pretty flagrant about having large pockets going into the theater, not sure they mind that much.

I have not. I make popcorn on the stove top with coconut oil + sea salt and put it in a large ziploc bag stashed in my purse. I refuse to pay for nasty hydrogenated oil popcorn, even if it WERE reasonably priced.

No. I don't even think people at movie theaters care unless you make it painfully obvious.

No, though I do this regularly.

I bring my own food/drink 100% of the time! Never had an issue (probably since I'm a girl and they never look in your purse). Actually if I couldn't bring any I would be even less likely to go to movies....my tummy does NOT agree with the type of food served at the theaters!

no and honestly if they did i wouldnt care im allergic to corn so popcorn is not an option for me and things like hot dogs and fries are so over priced it should be illegal

Contributor: GONE! GONE!
I've never been caught ever and I've even brought in things like brownies.

If a guy should bring snacks in a "paper bag", I guess the ticket-taker only needs to question the patron! I may need to try it once. I figure they would only ask that you leave the snacks behind. This being said, this Poll question indicates that so far no one has been asked NOT to throw snacks away.

I just wonder if the theater has a "policy" prevent patrons from bringing in their own snacks/food into the establishment?

I don't do that anymore but when I did I never was caught. However, way back in my college days, I was at an off campus movie theater and saw one of my professors caught for drinking from a tall boy can of beer he'd brought in.

Well, I guess selling beer may be prohibited in movie theaters. Good try!!!

Those college days I mentioned were back in the 1980's, now it depends...
Not that long ago we discovered iPic, a rather upscale theater in our area that offers a full bar and a nice restaurant menu. So when we've been there we have had cocktails in the theater, ordered from the waiter rather than brought in under my coat.

Never been caught, but don't often bring my own unless it's sometimes discreet that fits in my purse.

Definitely not. I'm sneaky deaky, just like my username (plus I have a massive purse and they never ask to search it).

Nope. I figure someone making minimum wage doesn't really give a shit. I take my own snacks all the time.

Never been caught. The highschoolers working there aren't paid to care.
