Woman has a brilliant method of sneaking snacks into the movies

Genius.

Sneaking in your own snacks to a cinema can be an anxious moment.

While some opt for the simple handbag stash, one woman by the name of Angela Brisk has come up with a novel way to hide all your delicious treats.

As Brisk posted on Twitter, all you need is a dome-like piece of foam, and pretend to be pregnant.

You might need to come up with some fictional tales about your pregnancy, but otherwise this is a slice of freakin' genius.

Twitter responded with plenty of enthusiasm, and some other ideas about where you could try out this trick.

Yes, men can try their hand at it too. Maybe.

Although we have a feeling cinemas will catch on if everyone starts getting pregnant.

Still better than paying for overpriced popcorn.
