A couple of months ago I’d received some Gold Class Gift Vouchers from two separate people for whom I’d done some PC recovery work. Since it seemed only fitting I try and make it a worthwhile jaunt, I took Barb to see Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows Part 1 in Gold Class on Friday night.
I’d never been to Gold Class before, so I was interested to see what the fuss is really all about. I have to say firstly that I’m very grateful for the opportunity the others gave me to go see something there. Secondly though, I’m impressed with the experience, but fail to see where the $35 simply for the seat is justified. The Food was good and reasonably priced (contrary to my expectation) and so it appeared was the wine that Barb drank. All in all, no more than Cafe prices for food and drink. So from that perspective I’d say good value. It might be me but I just think that $25 would be a more reasonable ask for the other comforts.
Anyway as I said, I’m grateful, and Barb enjoyed herself too. I did enjoy the movie, but the only reason I went Gold Class was that it was gifted: as I’m almost certain I’d still not have gone even several years from now. After all if I would fork it out for the Lord of the Rings Trilogy of movies, there’s probably not likely to be much else I would.
