AMC's New Bundle Makes Going to the Movies Actually Worth It
By Cassandra Yorgey,

Going to the movie theater is more than just a movie — it's an experience. It's a way to share the magic of a story on the big screen between friends, families, and loved ones without the constant interruptions of home.
But while we've all cherished memories of seeing that one movie, rising ticket prices and concession stand costs have made a night at the movies more unattainable than ever.
Plus, nothing can compete with streaming your favorite flicks at home — or can it?
Lately, movie theaters have struggled to balance affordability and providing a luxury experience for movie-goers (it sometimes feels like you need to pick up a side hustle just to buy a ticket!), but AMC has been at the forefront of discerning what customers value and what is keeping them away.
Read on to find out how to get a great deal to share that experience with another and enjoy the thrill of the theater again.
AMC is offering two movie tickets, two drinks, and popcorn to share for just $25 right now. The deal is available through Giftory, a company focused on selling gift packages that encompass experiences rather than material objects.
Their experiences cover everything from skydiving to spa packages, and right now, their AMC movie deal is the perfect way to escape the summer heat and see a new release with someone special.
The AMC bundle is $50 through Giftory, but using the promo code AMC25 will cut the cost in half — for a total of just $25 for an awesome night out for two.
The bundled package requires customers to redeem the voucher through Giftory to receive AMC tickets via email, and some locations will have a small additional fee and taxes, so be sure to follow the directions carefully when purchasing this hot discount bundle.
Catch the Regal Summer Movies Express and snag kids' movie tickets for just $1. Summer vacation is the perfect time to take the kids or grandkids out of the midday heat for a cool movie break, and on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 11 a.m., family movie tickets are only $1.
This promotion also offers a $5 Snack Pack with a junior drink, popcorn, fruit snacks, and an optional $3 upgrade to include Dippin' Dots.
3. Cinemark
Discount Tuesdays is a promotion Cinemark offers to keep ticket prices affordable. The cost may vary by location, but it includes nearly all showings — including 3D and IMAX.
The deal excludes special engagements and new releases that are opening on the day.
Movie theaters have to realign their offerings to account for the ease and accessibility of streaming movies at home, ensuring they provide what customers want.
For many, that's simply being able to afford to go to the movies again without having to get out of debt afterward.
Despite a 46% drop in movie ticket sales from 2002 to 2023, it does seem that people still miss going to the movies. Theaters working to provide an affordable experience are seeing customers return to their seats.
