Tonight I went to see Spy Kids in 4D with Peter and Isaiah. I am all for paying a little extra for the kids to experience something new. Peter was pretty sure 4D meant 3D in the Imax theater. I kind of believed him because he has that very convincing 8-year-old voice.
As I sat in the theater, I thought this is comical. Scratch and sniff has returned as 4D.
Let me tell you this. It is NOT worth paying the extra dollars as all three of us thought all 8 boxes smelled pretty much the same.
It is funny to me how simple things such as Kleenex and scratch and sniff have been marketed in a way to make more money. I know this has happened and will continue to happen with many products. I admit I am more of an impulsive buyer and often go for the new and upgraded product. Today I realize I am going to exercise more caution and am committed to being a more discerning consumer.
I learn something new every day.
