BOGOs

I'm getting pretty tired of these BOGOs. This is the year of the BOGO. Smart move for resorts - get two bodys on the slopes: 2x$10 burgers 2x$5 beer. Do it midweek when things are slow, even better. There's nothing to see here... move along now...

I have to agree with you Bill, many more than I remember seeing in the last few years. I am surprised by today's jumponit, this one is surprisingly weak considering that all of the resorts listed have true 2 fer 1's out in various other forms and several have done JOI deals directly. I guess they are pulling out all the stops in an attempt to get people out to ski/ride the wrod on the half a dozen or less trails they have open...and after last night's rain that might be a stretch.

45 degrees and sunny is not what any of us are looking for on Dec. 22, downright depressing.

I may be the exception but they tend to work okay for me. I pack lunch and drink a beer or 2 in the lot after most of the time.
