Hate 2 for 1 deals

Just for reference, on a £7 ticket for a blockbuster movie, the cinema may get as little as 35p - they need the popcorn and drinks revenue to pay staff wages, rates, electricity, etc., so they want extra popcorn munchers through the doors!!

We went to a restaurant last year as a group when the menu was 2 for 1.
There were an odd number of us (15) and they completely refused to allow us to order the free 16th meal.:mad:

I hate 2 for 1 deals. Last time was when I married the wife and got the !!!!!!! mother-in-law as well. Never again.

also then makes things hard when theres an uneven number of you. ill often go out in a group of three, and theres load of restaurants near us which do "two-for-ten" offers, and theyre always the restaurants where you pay on order, so harder to split the bill
although the guy thats out with us will often eat a massive steak which isnt on the offer anyway, so problem solved!!

This always confuses me as my local cinema charges £2.50 Mon-Thur and £3.50 at weekends, however new the film. They don't charge stupid money for drinks and snacks either, so they must be making profit somewhere???
