One day, one of the managers was feeling in a talkative mood and told us about what it actually costs to make popcorn and what we actually sold it for.

My brother was an usher at the local cinema while in High School (mid '70s). He said that a bucket of popcorn cost about $0.03, and sold for about $1.00-$1.50.

Yeah I worked at a Pizza place and it cost about 50 cents to make a pie.
