Cost of going to the movies

Post by Hughie »

Here in Oz it costs about $9 Aus to see a movie. If you are over sixty and have a seniors card (usually just a matter of applying) then you can get in for $7 you can get a further rebate to $6 if you are registered customers which we are - there is about 41 pence to the Aussie dollar.

It was very annoying for the wife when she took our three year old grandaughter to the movies recently. She had to pay $9 for her and only $6 for herself. :roll: ... Hughie

Hi Hughie

Not much different here in NJ. There's a standard set price of $9.50. Certain days have 'Senior Discount' tickets..usually Wednesday...Anyway, thanks tae my new friend, 'Google", :roll: I found something that might be of interest ...Various opinions about the reason for a uniform cost of going to the movies.
