Hello,

I started this blog just for the hell of it after reading a few blogs from fellow cyclist friends of mine. Their blogs got me interested in what I might have to say and how often I might say it. These posts will not be strictly about cycling, that was just a title for the blog that came to mind as I was filling out the necessary info......I might change it later. Some of my interests that might get written about on this blog are in no particular order....Cycling, Photography, Food, Working Out ( as opposed to cycling), movies, & trips that I have taken or might take in the future.
Thanks for checking in. If I write something you don't agree with, that's okay. These are my thoughts, not yours.

CHEAP AT THE MOVIES

SAVE SOME MONEY

    I went to the movies yesterday and managed to spend less than $10. Trust me that is no easy feat. Even if you go to the bargain matinee in the afternoon.

Movie ticket                  $7.75
Popcorn                        $0.75 ( Local Casino gives away free small popcorn on Wednesday, upgrade for $0.75
Water                           $0.49 ( Arrowhead water at Albertson's -vs- $5.75 for a Large Soda)
Candy                           $0.01 ( Who knows it was 2 pieces of hard candy I brought along in my pocket to quell
                                                 that sweet tooth -vs- $3.75 for a box of butterfinger bites that is actually less
                                                 candy than 1 candy bar at 7-11)

Total Cost                      $9.00

I can actually remember when that whole day might cost me as little as $1-2 when I was a kid living on an Air Force base. I don't go to an evening movie unless I have a freeby ticket to get in. I also have a discount card for another brand of theaters that gets you the occasional free movie ticket, or soda and discount candy and popcorn on midweek days
