My wife and I can do dinner and movie for about $30. The place showing the
best movies (http://www.thepalmtheatre.com/) charges $4.00 during the day
(before 5pm) and $5.00 on Monday night. Kids and seniors are always $4.00
Popcorn comes in 3 sizes: $1, $2, and $3. It's NICE having a locally owned
theatre (and I went to school with the owners... who both also used to be
in radio... in fact, one of them hosts a radio show on movies on Monday
nights).
