So in Economics the saying goes "There's no such thing as a free lunch" - we always end up paying for something that's 'free' in the end. If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.
However, here in Kalamazoo, there is something that is getting puh-rettty close. We have a few movie theaters that are battling against each other. A new bigger, badder one has just opened downtown. They opened with a cheaper price than the long-standing theater .. who then decided to lower their price ... and lower it some more - so now, it is ... drumroll please ... THREE DOLLARS!! However, the newer theater decided to give out 'FREE' popcorn and pop - wooo-wee huh!! I haven't been there, but that is suuure enough to get me to go there (oh yes this of course is aimed at college students so you have to show your student ID). But folks, the competition is just getting hotter - now the 'older' theater is giving out free popcorn, too! So three bucks, free popcorn (you would probably end up buying a drink for a couple bucks) OR five bucks, free popcorn and pop - but parking is a major pain at this Downtown theater. The decision is yours ... if you live in Kalamazoo ... and MAN I want to go see a movie now.
