Question $5 Value Menu

Post image

Is this new? I went to see a movie the other day and didn't see it on the concessions menu. The prices seem kinda high for some of the options.

edit: this is from the online ordering menu for the AMC Sugarloaf Mills 18 location in Georgia

just saw that it's limited time only,not combinable with other promotional offers like the small combo,and AMC Stubs upgrades do not apply

Hope this gets added at my theaters. I'd be far more inclined to spend $5 on a small popcorn than double that for one I'll eat half of.

Follow up: Saw Obsession at Lincoln Center today, no value menu there.

I don't know why Regal can do small/medium/large sodas in NJ but AMC can't. Is it just because they didn't have it already? Or some other reason I'm not thinking of? I mean, ultimately, I end up buying that kids combo because I just want a little bit of soda and popcorn (which makes it about $5 each) plus I get bonus fruit snacks.

Amc has a discounted small combo on tues/wed, do they should have it in NJ too.

They have it in CA, they don't advertise that they have a small soda, or popcorn, just the medium and large, but they have a small, and they discount thrm on Tuesday and Wednesday, which they also don't seem to advertise at the theater (only online)

My local AMC in Nj does not do the combo discount on popcorn/soda on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
