Nobody is fond of them, but no one really minds either. I also note that our prices are $4.25, about $3.50 US. This seems to be a lot cheaper than the prices in the States. When I was at the San Diego UNICOM, the local movies cost $5.00. It looks as though the advertising we have here makes our tickets cheaper. Does anyone know what else effects ticket prices?
