Skiing on the Cheap - 2013-14 Edition

[MidnightJester]

Didn't pay specifically doesn't make something free in life. The vast majority of people who go to see the movies are going for the vouchers. Some go for the fun and the movie. She went for the voucher. It cost her at least 30 with gas and expenses to go get. So to her not even close to free. If after going home she told her BF/Husband yea hunny it didn't cost me anything for this I got it FREE. Did she really get it for free?? NO. Their are costs to even free things in life.

Wait, she has a "BF/Husband"?!?!? I want to withdraw my offer to receive a hug.

Right and your friend had no intention of selling them that's why she had 4 sets of them right? Go sell it on eBay or Craigslist. At this point your blatantly saying f you to Nick by continuing to attempt to sell these.

 

[MidnightJester]

Don't take that part literally. As far as I know she dosent.. : ) That was a AS/IF

 

[MidnightJester]

Not to sell for her. You go Multiple times over a week to same mountain for a cheap trip. She went away and came back with some jungle bug. Told her she should of stayed and enojoyed the snow instead of being Dora the Explore in a faraway place.

Your "friend", didnt pay for them.

Your "friend" paid for a ticket to see the Warren Miller movie, and got the voucher for free.

Agreed; you are essentially paying for a movie and getting free ski passes because you went to the movie. Now, even for someone who makes $10 an hour, do you think driving to/from a movie theater, paying $30 to see the movie, and account for that time in money is economical? To each their own, and I guess it depends how much you value the entertainment in the film, how much you monetarily value the passes, and what other options you value to go skiing.

Its hard for some people with cost and benefit. I am doing what I can to help her. She isn't poor but her not using and losing them would of been half a take home check some weeks. Others that could be week or more if in tough job market. I am trying to help the person who is hurting now and cant afford a lift make it a little more affordable. Help 2 people on opposite sides. Ill weigh my bad against that good.

Would any mods like a free lift ticket to Gore?

Big Boulder (aka small hill: 475' vertical) is offering $15 lift tickets and $15 rentals for their final weekend of the season 4/5 and 4/6. If you like park they devote about half the hill to that.

I'm a member of a couple non skiing related forums and I understand the hard work that some moderators put in to the forums so figured I'd offer to them first.

If anyone wants a free lift ticket or two to Gore let me know, I'm not going to be able to use them.
All that I ask if that you either pay it forward to another member next season or remember me next season!

Awesome of you to do so, and someone should jump on this. Gore has fantastic terrain.

Mt Sunapee

Sunapee is going another week it looks like. Their normal Spring food drive was last Sunday on that very rainy day---we were there giving food but cant imagine there were too many non pass holders on the hill. Nice that they are running this again.

Next Saturday and Sunday is Cares & Shares weekend. Bring five non-perishable food items to the ticket window either day and ski and ride all day for only $35.
