watching movie in cinema...

Hubby likes to go cinema whenever there is big film. But, since we come to SZ, we have not watch a movie at cinema. It is actually a high-class activity here with the ticket at minimum 80RMB per person. Thinking the older-time at Malaysia, RM10 per person for a movie we already feel expensive and always select to watch at odd times. Now, we know there is still a saving grace in Malaysia. I wonder how can most of the people here afford to watch with that price. Well, probably because of that, there are lots of pirated DVDs here. ;p

Yesterday, me and hubby decided to spent that 160RMB for movie in cinema. At least to see what is so special at the cinema causing such an expensive price. We have gone to "Golden Harvest" at the Coastal City, Nanshan District SZ. The seats and sound system are not bad, but the theater is considerably small. It probably have bigger theater which i don't know. Overall, not much different from cinema in Malaysia except the price, even the pop-corn with coke also expensive ie 39RMB for a set.

The good point is the customer service is really good. After we purchased the ticket, we found out there is a promotion whereby applying as member with 1/2 price ie 50RMB and will get to purchase 2 tickets with 99RMB for that day. The staff is kind enough to assist us on refunding the ticket and then applying for the member card. Finally, we spent 150RMB for movie plus able to enjoy member's benefits for future.

However, i am not sure whether we will be going again, because after including the transport and a meal, that's a really high-cost entertainment!
