Birch, Carrol and Coyle gift certificates and pre-purchased discount tickets are (for reasons best known to the money-grubbers themselves) not valid on Saturdays after 5pm. I could almost understand it for the discount ticket books, but arent gift vouchers supposed to be just like store-specific cash?
Their prices are also alarming. At Cineplex, the most you will pay for an adult ticket is $AUD7.90. That's absolute maximum - they get cheaper at certain times. At BCC, the only way to get into a movie for the same price is to gather up four hundred and ninety-nine of your closest friends, all with student concession cards, and buy your tickets in bulk. Then you get in for $AUD7.80. If you need adult tickets, it can't be done. The absolute minimum adult ticket price at BCC is $AUD9.00, and that's if you buy ten thousand tickets or more.

PS - For mentioning their name in this post, I owe BCC $AU 4.00.
PPS - This has been a community service announcement from one cheapskate to whoever is listening.
