Date-in-a-Box: Movie Night
(It's breaking news)
...and we hope to get the last clown out of the car before nightfall.
Well, there we have it, Heather. It has finally been done.
What's that, Ed?
Michelle and Frank have finally put together the first official 'Date-in-a-Box'.
Date-in-a-Box? What is that?
Well, Heather, as you know, those in long distance relationships rarely get the chance to spend quality time together in person. In order to take my long distance girlfriend out, for example, I would have to fly 2,000 miles, costing me at least $300 right there. Add on a night at the movies with snacks and you are talking about some expensive evening!
And time-consuming. Why, it is downright impractical.
Right you are, Heather. That is why long distance relationship gurus, Michelle and Frank, have created Date-in-a-Box: Movie Night. Now, what are your favorite candies when you go to the movies?
I would say, Raisinets, Buncha Crunch, Swedish Fish, Sour Patch Kids, and Junior Mints.
All those are in the box. Now, raise your hand if you like cotton candy.
I'm raising my hand, Ed!
That is in the box, too! As well as a traditional keepsake Coca-Cola glass so you can enjoy one of your favorite beverages in class.
But what about the Popcorn? I can't have my movie without Popcorn!
The Date-in-a-Box contains two bags of microwave Popcorn, as well as a traditional Popcorn bucket, so you can snack on your Popcorn in true movie fashion.
That sounds great! But what really makes this Date-in-a-Box: Movie Night so special and unique?
Michelle and Frank have thought of every way to make the traditional movie night fit into the constraints of a Long Distance Relationship. You know those trivia questions that are on the screen before the previews? In each box is your very own set of movie trivia to ask your significant other. This way, you have something to do while you wait for your movie to buffer!
That sounds so cute, I love it! What else have they come up with?
As you know, when you normally go to the movie theater, you can't just have anything you want to eat. And if you could, it would not be as special. Inside the Date-in-a-Box is a stack of Concession Dollars. This way, you can actually 'buy' your snacks.
Wait, how do I 'buy' something that I already have?
On the back of every dollar is a secret task that you have to perform to 'spend' that dollar. For example, if I wanted to have a box of Buncha Crunch, I would have to 'spend' one Concession Dollar. When I pull back the tab on the back of my Concession Dollar, it may say, "Tell your significant other your favorite joke." After I told her my joke, I would be able to enjoy my Buncha Crunch. There are 18 unique tasks. It really is a creative way to fulfill that movie-going experience.
That is so fun! But they seem to have thought of everything except what movie we are supposed to watch, and how to watch it.
Inside each Date-in-a-Box is a list of some of the all time greatest date movies that you could choose to watch. And, if you like, you could include to send a $5 Amazon.com voucher so you could instantly rent one of the thousands of movies Amazon.com has streaming from their website. This makes your viewing experience high quality, fast, reliable, and legal.
I do believe my next date night will be one to remember.
Of course it will be, Heather! You will have your Large Admission Ticket to remind you of your fantastic Movie Night. In fact, there is so much in this Date-in-a-Box, you could have three to five Movie Nights.
Great, Ed. Coming up next on LFAD news...Poodles and their funny haircuts...
