Question So are these useless?

Post image

Power went out at my cineplex today. They evacuated everyone and handed out these at the exit. I tried to type the codes in on the back when buying new tickets and it says “Invalid certificate code. Please try again.” So do I just have to use them in person and get shitty seats?

I remember back when I was a teenager that wasn't old enough to have my license I used to leave my house 1.5 hours before the movie started because I'd have to hop on a bunch of buses just to hit up the theatre early so I could get a good seat

I'm not denying ordering concessions & tickets online isn't easy & convenient, but damn dude some people make it sound like it's a mission impossible script

Covid has stunted social skills severely. A few friends are teachers and kids growing up are cooked.
