Orange 241

Cara_xx

my partner and I went to Odeon last night to watch a 3D film using our Orange Wednesday code, but when we got to the till, we were charged £2 for the second ticket, instead of getting it for free!

Is this a widespread new thing or does it depend on the cinema??

It sounds a bit like false advertising to me - its peddled as '2 for 1' when in fact it is 'buy one, get one for £2' !!!

Make that £2+the ridiculous price of a single ticket at the main cinemas these days +£2 3D surcharge on the original ticket

And lord help you if you fancy some food or drink while watching the film...
