If you’re on a budget, BYOB is essential. Now a SoFlo theater is participating in the campaign, but exchange the bottle for a bucket. Cinemark Theaters wants you to bring your own bucket and fill it with popcorn. You get enough popcorn to make it to the end credits. And the rest of the week.
Can you really have too much popcorn? The salty, buttery treat is a must-have at the movies.
Now Cinemark Theaters wants to make sure you get your fill!
Julia McCartha: “We’re so excited to bring back our bring-your-own-bucket event to celebrate National Popcorn Day. On January 18 and 19, people can bring any container they want, as long as it’s clean, and get up to 400 ounces of popcorn for just $5.”
That’s right: any container under 400 ounces, and that’s for every person!
Julia McCartha: “It concerns two of our XL popcorns.”
Deco stopped by Cinemark Paradise 24 in Davie and checked one off the bucket list.
Guest: “I can eat this, no problem.”
Guest: “It’s a hell of a lot of popcorn, man, I hope the movie is long enough!
When it comes to containers, creativity is key.
Julia McCartha: “We have everything from the really cool movie-themed collectible buckets that we sell in our theaters. We’ve also seen things like a wheelbarrow, a bedside table and a chest.”
We wanted to test the theory, so we scoured the office for popcorn bucket perfection.
Shireen: “Okay, what about this?”
Julia McCartha: “Yes.”
Shireen: “And what about this?”
Julia McCartha: “Yes.”
Shireen: “What about this?”
Julia McCartha: “Absolutely.”
There is one way to go over the 400 ounce limit: if you bring a hardware bucket from Lowe’s, they fill it to the brim.
Julia McCartha: “So if you have one of those great Lowe’s five-gallon buckets, you can bring it in and it will be filled to the brim with popcorn.”
Netflix and Prime are great, but nothing beats watching a movie on the big screen and eating popcorn from the biggest bucket you can find!
Bring-your-own-bucket takes place this Sunday and Monday at Cinemark locations. And get this, you don’t even have to buy a movie ticket! Just walk in with your wheelbarrow and fill up the tank.
