I have been an AMC Stubs member for several years. My wife and I are semi retired and go to watch about every movie that comes out at our local AMC theater. We spend alot of money there buying all the concession stuff etc. One thing we always did though was we buy the annual popcorn bucket at the beginning of each year. It started out about 15 to 20 dollars 5 years ago. It was a plastic bucket and you could bring it in and get a bucket of popcorn for about 5. Normally a large popcorn is about 11 dollars so it was a good deal especially as much as we went. Now tonight Jan 3rd we just went to the AMC and found something out that has just ruined it for me with them. They have now gotten rid of the plastic popcorn bucket. They have substituted it for another so called popcorn deal. You now have to pay basically 30 dollars and (if ) your an AMC stubs member they put that info on your account and you can buy popcorn for half price. This is what disturbs me about this. First they are now charging more money for the previous deal. Next you get no nice bucket with a lid to put your popcorn in and take home if you dont eat it all and 3rd they aren't offering the deal to anyone but AMC Stubs members. Now yes I am a Stubs member so I can buy the deal but now what about the thousand or millions of people that would normally buy the bucket deal every year to save a little money but now if you don't pay for that 25 dollar monthly AMC Stubs deal you can't get the popcorn deal. It. Is a way to try and corerce more people in paying for the Stubs memberships but guess what. Its not gonna happen. People's not gonna pay 25 dollars each month for a Stubs membership per person to get a little discount on their popcorn. Not gonna happen. Also one of the employees told me themselves that lots of people would buy the popcorn bucket deals for family members for Christmas and birthday gifts but guess what. Can't do that now unless you pay 25 dollars a month for a Stubs membership. Leave it up to a bunch of stupid ass corporate people to screw up a good thing. I hope this back fires so much for them. These companies can't leave well enough alone.
