Welcome to BigScreenBiz.com

Hey Burneyfalls,
Where did you get your 170 oz plastic tubs? We used to get movie art tubs from PMG out of Kansas City, but were recently told they would no longer be selling these. Haven't been able to find another source. Please tell.
Thanks!

I ordered them from CinemaScene. Their email addresses are below. Problem is they did not get here for the opening and will not be here until Tuesday.

we have 32oz for $1.25, 85oz for $2.25, 130oz for $3.00 and the Indiana Jones 170 oz tub for $4.00. We've been selling them all very well.

we ordered the Indy tubs about a month ago and have had them for three weeks. Sold most of the case already. I'll be looking for the next one soon.

That seems weird to me. You can buy 48 oz (2 smalls) for less than your 46 oz.

Wow..now that the Aussie dollar is almost the same as USA..ours seems soo expensive..and yet..compared to other aussie cinemas, ours is cheaper than the city places..are those prices concidered expensive in USA or cheap??

ours are
BIB drinks
Small $3
Medium $4
Large $4.50
any size refill for $2
Water, juice, milk $3


Popcorn

Small $3.50
Medium $4.50
Large $6.50
no refills

we often sell out of corn..so the prices can't be too scarey i guess

Don't want to seem rude, but why would you allow this to happen? Not enough room for seed storage, or do you pop in advance... or???

Our poppers can run all night, if necessary, so I don't understand why anyone would regularly sell out.

Please explain!

We raised our popcorn and pop prices January of this year; it was our first popcorn and pop increase since we took over the theater in 2000. Our new prices are as follows:

Popcorn:

46oz - $1.75
85oz - $2.50
130oz - $3.75

Drinks:

Pop
12oz - $1.00
16oz - $1.25
22oz - $1.75
32oz - $2.50

20oz H20 - $1.00

16oz slush puppies - $1.50

Refills - $0.50

Jack, I guess I used the wrong word there..... we make our corn just before a show (its usually still popping when the first people are coming in) and we switch it on to make more when its getting low, but sometimes people will get several large or mediums when its low and we actually will run out and we can have the machine empty for a minute or two while more is being made..our popper is on almost constantly too..but sometimes people just get more than you expect!! if it does run out and the show is about to begin, we will bring it in to them so they don't miss the start.

OK... I understand that.

We have that happen here, too. Sometimes, they'll buy you out faster than you can get the popper warmed back up!

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Jack
