Cineplex theatre in Canada.
Cineplex is offering cheap movie tickets and popcorn in Canada.
But if you want to get the discounted prices, you have to buy tickets and concessions in a certain way.
It was just announced that a $5 Weekend deal is happening at Cineplex Canada theatres across the country.
On Saturday, August 30 and Sunday, August 31, general admission movie tickets and small bags of popcorn will cost $5 each plus tax.
But you have to buy movie tickets and popcorn a certain way if you want to get the discounted prices.
Otherwise, it will cost you more money.
General admission tickets for movies with showtimes on Saturday and Sunday will be $5 when purchased in-theatre.
When buying movie tickets online, the $5 price is only available to CineClub members.
That membership has a $9.99 monthly subscription fee.
Here's how much tickets for this weekend cost before tax when purchased online:
- $6 for Scene+ members ($5 plus a $1 online booking fee)
- $6.50 for everyone else ($5 plus a $1.50 online booking fee)
Cineplex said the online booking fee allows you to reserve seats and get shareable digital tickets.
It only applies to the first four tickets you purchase in a single transaction.
You can also get a small popcorn for $5 plus tax when you order from concessions at Cineplex theatres this weekend.
That price doesn't include toppings, which are an extra charge, and it doesn't apply to Poptopia-branded popcorn or concession combos.
You can't get the $5 deal on popcorn when ordering delivery or purchasing through Cineplex mobile ordering.
Tickets for the $5 Weekend deal can be bought starting on Wednesday, August 27.
You can see Caught Stealing, The Roses, Weapons, The Fantastic 4: First Steps, Superman, Freakier Friday, The Bad Guys 2, and more movies with showtimes on Saturday and Sunday.
This offer can be applied to films in 3D, IMAX, UltraAVX, D-BOX, 4DX, ScreenX, Clubhouse and VIP auditoriums, but you'll have to pay an additional surcharge.
Cineplex said that a portion of the proceeds from the $5 Weekend promo will go to the Canadian Picture Pioneers.
It's a charitable organization that supports members of the motion picture industry in Canada.
