I continue to poke around the internet in an attempt to find deals for the 2014-2015 season. Some of the deals out there are laughable such as $10 off a lift ticket. If it were against lift ticket prices for lets say Black Mountain in NH then it is a deal, but if it is against a lift ticket at Stowe, Killington or even Sunday River - I would say not.
Recently, Liftopia has been sending emails out regarding deals. Two years in a row I bought early season lift tickets 1 time to Ragged and another to Gunstock and found out when I got there that the early season rate was the same. So obviously the deal was not a deal. Sometimes on Liftopia you can get a lift ticket and $10 voucher for food (non alcohol) - is that a deal? Liftopia does have some good deals mostly mid week - then again most resorts do to and if I were to look closer some of the two fer deals at resort are probably not far off the deal on Liftopia. Many resorts hand out coupons at ski shows for a percentage off but most are midweek non peak.
If you are a mid week skier then you can score lots of deals - awesome for you!
There are some great deals out there The Ride and Ski Card, Ski VT 3or 5 pass, Fox 44 Ski Card, Irving Gas Skiing 2 fer, Mountain Sports Club, CT Ski Clubs (I am sure the same applies in other state too) - all where you can ski for 50% or less - those are deals!
Will they be Open on the11/30 if open on 12/06 is it a deal?
