If my wife and I go by ourselves we will never get any food or drink. Maybe a couple beers if they have a bar, most of the ones nowadays.
If we're taking the kids though I consider it the cost of seeing the latest Marvel movie etc on day 1. If I keep a kids pack of popcorn and Icees on their lap, I know they will sit there and keep quiet instead of dancing in the aisle. Of course I bring candy in my wife's purse as well, I'm not the kind of monster who pays $7 for Red Vines.
