Good idea, possibly a lot of work.

I like the idea of a streamlined stickey thread. Have a Skiing on the Cheap thread, and the mods can delete any posts that are not directly related to a discount (like this one, or instance.).

I think this is a great place for people to core dump - a second summary stickey for reference would be nice with limited access for posting!

New to this thread and I know there are a lot of posts for me to read through. But has anyone thought of a google doc to keep things organized where people could post deals to specific mountains as well as discounted ski tickets to multiple mountains overall. I apologize if this has already been suggested. 64 pages is a lot to sift through

A lot of us have, but as you can see, most of these deals are VERY time sensitive so usually only the last few pages are even relevant.

Perhaps threads for deals by state, and one that covers "regional" deals?

By state might be tough since deals like Fox 44, RSNE, ski clubs etc cover multiple states but regions might be good! Some one will have to manage it so minimizing effort is important!

Great idea.

When will you have this done for us?

I'll just point out that all these posts talking about how this thread is too long and disorganized....are what make it too long and disorganized. And now I'm part of the problem.

Don't forget that every Thursday non-holiday or powder day is "Throwback Thursday" and tickets are $15 :)

Just a minor clarification....the powder day Thursdays (6" or more at base at 8a) are normal pricing not $15....regardless Magic is still an incredible place to be on a powder day!

Hey this is fine the way it is wonderful to have pages of tips & happy that those that share do. If it can be better great, but it really isn't a problem rather an inconvenience.

Unless you use them all during the holidays that doesnt seem like a "deal" to me.
