This is probably closest to my view, versus any moral reason. I expect to pay $11.50 for my popcorn combo at the movies, I expect to pay $7 for a beer at the baseball game. Growing up, we ALWAYS got snacks at the movies, the ball game, etc., despite the cost, and so to me the cost of those treats is just part of the cost of going to a movie or ballgame or other entertainment--like you wouldn't go to a concert and NOT get a t-shirt, right? Plus, I REALLY love movie popcorn. It's definitely in my top five of favorite foods.

Generally, though, I don't do things that go against the company's policy. I am very much a goody-two-shoes.
