Agree with you there and many lodging deals do require 2 people to a room to get the price or otherwise the effective price goes way up. At least with lodging, you do have hostels when skiing alone. But even with hostels, the "deals" at places like SR when staying at a third party hotel are still significantly more $$ than say staying at Snow Cap Inn with 2 people per room. And many times, my friends don't want to ski when I want to and the ride up north for one day does become a bit stressful so that's how I figure the ski buses to be a deal. Ex. Sunday River is $67 for a ticket and ride + $4 to park in Woburn= $71; when the window rate is $80; I'd be spending more in gas and wear and tear on my car even to get to NH resorts that are say; 2 hours away if I'm looking at a $35ish (in SR's case $40) ticket when the distance to Woburn is taken out. If I figure that bus only is $35; ticket price is $36 although the imputed bus cost gets to be an inflated price if you're bringing a family of 4 or so on the bus if you do that since I'm sure it doesn't cost $140 to take any car to SR from Greater Boston.

Y'know what I'd like to see.....an OPTION of eating or skiing.....and using all the sugar-laden fast-food coupons towards lift tickets!
Of course it'll NEVER Happen...lol.
That $30/day thing is nice Billski. ASC & Boyne did it($29) at SL as state-resident days, every Wednesday, and have continued...although now it's up to $39, but even that's been great for a whole season.
