During the month of November discounts of up to 50 percent will be offered to residents with valid state drivers licenses at 35 local businesses in Killington, including hotels, lift tickets, and shopping.

November is typically a less active month for tourism, sandwiched between fall foliage and ski season.

WCAX-TV reports (http://bit.ly/tL8LTl) the state Department of Tourism reports the promotion is the only one of its kind during the month of November.

Never heard of this site, but it seems so mathematically advantageous I don't understand why every skier wouldn't join given you get a free lift ticket just for signing up.

And 2 for 1s all year long at Jay Peak and Plattekill, etc.... including weekends? Sounds pretty amazing.

Anyone ever use this website before, it's appearance is sloppy, there are numerous typos, and I cant find any information on GOOG. lol. But if it's legit, I'm 100% signing up. Also, I think it would steer me to skiing Jay more than I ski Smuggs this season.

Cool. I'm gonna start calling you "SmellyDeals" .

I've been wondering what the mountain folk think of our consolidations. While they prefer to target specific markets, we're turning that around into a central repository. Nick should start charging for entrance to this thread. I suspect he could make some good loot!

They limit the use of their offers in such a way that I don't think they need to worry. They have to know that this stuff goes viral. They want the skiers or else they wouldn't offer the deals. And the prepay deals are cash in pocket during a time that they make no revenue (except pass sales but those are constant regardless of other deals or not). Also, as with me last year, sometimes folks buy deals and never use them....

The whole point of putting the so called deals out there is for people to buy them. Most won't even use the so called deals that they buy.

If he charged for access to the thread, would you pay for it?
