Stratton is giving away 8,000 free lift tickets. Got to http://www.stratton.com/show to enter. You can enter once per day until you win.
Thanks for the tip! I won a free lift ticket! :D

Looks like im going to Price Chopper tonight :) Have you checked this out yet?
No. But only because it's so iffy as to when I can get away that I didn't want to tie money up in something I may not be able to use. Plus I'm more likely to be able to ski nights at Sundown and it's cheaper to get the pick-a-night pass than use those packs of tix for that. Did you get any?

BTW, welcome! Nice to see another local on here! :snow:

Powder Passport has a pass that's good if you don't want to buy a season pass and just want a deal on up to 7 days of skiing. The pass is also good at quite a few ski resorts in the Northeast.

here's an odd one. Bought a 12 pack of harpoon the other day and there was a $20 off coupon on the box for sunapee or okemo. Good for sunday-friday all season.

you sure thats legit, looks a bit ghetto. I might call first
I've seen the brochure shown at http://www.northeastskiandboard.com/maps.htm
last year at a Vermont rest area as well as at ski resorts. I was amazed at the number of good discounts offered. First time I've seen them on the net. You always have to wonder if the resorts will honor something produced at home like this, but never say never, it's been done before.

I really wonder if this is legit. Look around at northeastskiandboard.com seems a bit lame, and THEY have these?
I picked up one of their brochures this week from a ski shop in Joisey. It's basicaly a map with a bunch of ads, events and a half dozen or so coupons. Seems legit. Only one way to find out though.

Check this out. Bought a couple at the Boston Ski Show today. For a good cause, too.

Definitely for a good cause and a good deal. Buy now, before the price goes up to $49 on December 1st.


I purchased mine today. Even if I don't use it for any of the discounts offered, getting a no black out date ticket to Black Mountain New Hampshire AND one to Saddleback for $29!!!!! Heck of a deal. Both of those resorts were on my hope to hit list this winter and to be able to do so for $14.50 each per day is great.

I just received my NE Ski and Ride Card in the mail....ordered online on Monday night, received yesterday. Beyond what you read about on the website for the 2 for 1 deals, discount tickets/lodging, I also received:

-1 Ticket to Black Mtn (Mon-Fri, no holidays)

-1 Ticket to Tenney Mtn (no blackout days, anytime use this season)

-1 anytime use ticket to Ragged Mtn

For $29 to get 3 lift tickets plus everything extra is just a phenomenal deal.
Price goes up to $49 tomorrow I think.
