    yea this needs to be changed because there is a new birthday program that cec just started a couple of weeks ago. lots of things have changed.. for example, there are still the 2 party packages. in the 11.99 package you get an hour and a half to play, you also get 20 tokens for all of the kids, the b-day kid get a HUGE balloon and insted of getting 100 tickets they get 20 extra tokens they also get a birthday crown with several more tokens in it. and in the 16.99 package they get everything mentioned above except they also get regular sixed balloons for all of the kids that says " I partied with chuck e." for all of the kids, they also receive a chair cover that can also be used to carry persents so what not. i think that is everything and the reason i know this is because i work there.
    also just an inside tip.. if you schedule your party during the week you get more time then you normaly would during the week. you also get more tokens for all of the kids and you get a lot more time
