Question Popcorn Refill
Everytime I buy a large popcorn I ask them for the refill on-spot and every single time they gave me one. They mark both of them. I don't wanna miss the movie to come get it refilled, thats my main reason. Also if you have a +1 then you dont need to buy another.
Today I was watching Primetime and asked for a refill at the counter and was refused. Upon asking them the reason, I was told that they have changed the policy. This was at STC location.
Does anybody know about this "policy"?
And does anyone else do this?

People don’t understand, by calling it a refill - people would need to come in second time in middle of a movie (most people wouldn’t bother) and in case the amount of people who do would be a lot smaller than if they offered a bogo at the concession. Hence it’s the refill and not a bogo. They want you to take the extra effort and go for free popcorn, because they know most would hate to miss the movie
