That mountainsportsclub worked out pretty well.

It cost me $29.95, but with that I get a Smuggs lift ticket "free" for joining, so I'm already ahead since a Smuggs tic costs much more than $30. But the beauty is the membership will allow me to print out Buy One Get One free vouchers to both Plattekill and Jay Peak all year long (ex-holidays). So net/net, I should end up saving some additional money.

If anyone else wants to do this, the owner did tell me they're likely going to sell out of the "free Smuggs ticket for joining" promotion this weekend so you'd have to hurry (code is Smuggs11), but they still have Shawnee and Plattekill freebies for joining.

www.mountainsportsclub.com

This is a great deal, I used it last year for the free Plattekill ticket and 2-for-1s.

But to clarify, this year the Plattekill deal is not '2-for-1' but 'Buy 1 Get the 2nd Half-off'. Still good, but not as good.

Yes, thanks for mentioning that, I only realized that recently. Either it changed, or it was a reading fail on my part.

But just the $29.95 Smuggs ticket alone was worth it for me and saves me money. And on top of that, I will use 2 for 1 tickets all season long at Jay Peak! That's craziness.
It also means I'll be skiing Jay Peak this year and hitting Smuggs once or twice, whereas usually it's quite the reverse.

For Platty, I guess I'll have to stick with skiridefree .com for my 2 for 1s (I've also been trying to purchase entertainment book coupons).

Is it a single Plattekill 2-for-1 coupon per entertainment book?
