Cheapskates 2023-24 thread

I guess there are too many cheapskates. LOL

Yeah... I logged in at 10:00 (the earliest possible). entered the cue at 12:00 (again the earlist possible) and waited in a virtual waiting room for 80 minutes before I got booted. Logged back in and sold out! Bummer!

Not Northeast but Tamarack Resort in Idaho is doing a sale tonight where you can get 5 tickets for anytime free. Its a nice spot North of Boise, been there a couple times. Got 5 for myself you just buy them on the website and put the code TAMBSU23 in at checkout.

$49 tix at Saddleback available most days this season.

$49 Saddleback Tix

This is still going on. Last night I found a Karbon ski parka or $75. If I can get the air freshener stink out of it it’ll be great!

Anyone got any recommendations on Sugarloaf adult single day ticket deals? Specifically for either 2/26 or 2/27?

Have more 25% off buddy tickets than we can use. Can send you the voucher number when we get closer if you do not find anything better.

Prepurchase now is probably best for SL, and watch for flash sales. They seem to have them a few times a season. But we all know what a crapshoot it is preplanning loaf trips.

Staying in Rangeley, have Saturday to Tuesday to ski. Figure 2 Saddleback, 1 BMOM and 1 SL. Not sure I'm willing to take a gamble on reserving a day in advance at SL. Probably just take Bigos offer on the buddy discount

I would suggest not taking rte 17 from Rangeley down to Black Mtn. Unless that road was paved over the summer that’s a 25mph road at best in the winter. Unreal frost heaves.

I drove that last year but I heard that it may have been paved. I will double check with my sources and post my findings here.

I've made the trip over 17 twice, but not last year. I do so mainly for Height of Land views. Is 4 to 142 appreciably faster / smoother?

A post on skitalk this summer said the highway was fixed. When I drove it last winter, it was terrible. As in shouldn't be open at all.

Free opening day at Jay. Not in the cards for me this season.

I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on No Boundaries. When Indy went full mobster, I bought a Ski Cooper pass. No Boundaries would round out the NE offerings nicely. Perhaps a few Cannon NH resident days too.

Saddleback is offering passholders of other independent mountains in Maine $59 weekday/ $69 Weekend tix

OG thank you $59 is a nice dealio.

Berkshire East and Catamount both doing Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals.

$75 for three night tickets (mailed vouchers, so transferrable)
$105 for three weekday full day tickets
15% off all online lift ticket purchases with the code BECYBERSALE / CATCYBERSALE


Bromley normally has a flat ticket rate of $99 regardless of the day - that's discounted to $89 as part of their cyber weekend sale.

Anyone else see some good deals?

A guy I work with that has a camp in Oquossuc says Rt 17 was paved this summer. Hope the frost heaves don't come back too quickly because that was brutal last year.

Why is last year's thread still pinned and this one isn't? People keep starting new threads since they can't find this one.
