This blog is going to cover the cost differences between the
discounted prices and the regular prices at the Cinemark 10 Theater located in
Plano.
Cost:

The cost of a movie before 6 am is only $1.50 on any day
during the week. The price during the weekday after 6 am goes up to $1.75,
which is still a great deal. The price during the weekends after 6 am is $2.25.
On Tuesdays, tickets are only 50 cents.
Popcorn and drinks can be a little cheaper if you take
advantage of the combos. By ordering a large drink along with large popcorn
will save you 50 cents. By ordering two large drinks and large popcorn will
save you 75 cents.
Going to a regular theater, the price of one person would be
around $30 including a drink and popcorn. Cinemark 10 provides an alternative.
You end up saving quite a bit.
From UTD to the theatre, it is only 5 miles, and it will
take you around a 10-minute drive.
Experience:

Looking at the price, many would disregard these types of
theaters, but it provides very much the same experience as any other theater.
The experience is actually a good one. Being that this
theater is not as popular as the other ones, it doesn’t have huge crowds. This
offers better seating and cleaner viewing rooms.

All in all, Cinemark 10 provides a wonderful experience if
you are willing to wait a couple of weeks from the movie’s premiere.
