At this point I asked to speak with a manager. Trying to be patient and understanding, I realize that this employee is only the 'messenger' with no authority to give us the popcorn and beverage. The employee shared that the advertisement was no longer valid and the $8 was only for the movie. After purchasing our tickets I inquired about the beverage & popcorn. Last week my son & I specifically drove to this theater because of the special price. On an external wall near the entrance of the Palms/ Brenden Theaters, there is an advertisement promoting $8 Thursday's that included 1 ticket, 1 beverage, & 1 popcorn.
