As I was trying to remember how much an adult movie ticket is at the Warren, I started reminiscing. You know, Tony and I met our senior year of high school while working at the Shawnee Movies 6, in 1992...gees that was a long, LONG time ago.
Yes, I go to the movies almost every weekend. But honestly, I don't pay a whole lot of attention to the ticket price. I'm not sure if it is because I know it is going to be expensive and I am in denial or I just don't care....I'm seeing the movie no matter how much it costs me. Either way, when I called the Warren this morning to get the exact price....I was shocked!
I shouldn't have been shocked...but I WAS!
So, back to 1992...when Tony and I were working at the theatre...I remember it only costing....And thinking that it was too expensive...of course, I was operating on a budget of like nothing/week income, so $4.25 was a lot then. (BTW...it is complete coincidence that the quarter picture I found is of a 1992 quarter...but I think that is pretty dang cool.)
Anyways...I am amazed at how expensive things have gotten. Don't even get me started on a gallon of gasoline...

Yes, I agree. Movie night is a large expense. We tend to stream a lot of netflix movies through our Wii for our family movie nights which tend to be every Friday evening. It is much cheaper and I get to wear my pajamas which makes it very enjoyable. :)
I remember being able to fill up my car in high school with only $7...where did those days GO?!?!?!
