How about making your own popcorn at home and watch movie on your home theatre? I make popcorn with coconut oil and Flavacol, identical to movie theater popcorn for pennies.

At least it's a weekend, but I'll stick to $5 Tuesday's instead and buy a popcorn at normal price.

not really, nothing can compare to movie theatre popcorn. It's like crack, only better.

Yes. They will just fill it with two fills of an XL bucket.

When I did this last time, I brought a 4.5 gal bucket. The employee said it wouldn't fill it all the way up. I knew it would be close. She put a plastic liner in it and filled it up with 2 XL buckets and it almost filled it up. She was surprised.

I haven't seen anything about a limit per person. I just want to get two. Assume that will be fine. Anyone know for sure?

They did this time as well.

So to answer my own question, no issues getting two.

But this time was different than my experience last time:

This time, the workers didn't say anything about the size and completely filled both up and actually packed it down. Definitely got more this time.

Because I knew I was going to buy a bunch of merchandise, I joined the Movie Club for a month.

I got $1 off the $5 bucket deal plus I was able to apply the price of the ticket $11.99 (subscription price) to the merchandise.
