JetsDevs4Lyf Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Those aren't really bad deals for people especially if they get their tickets ahead of time online (which I think many people do already). Glad to see the park taking after many of the others in the cahin with lowering the prices and trying to make a visit more affordable.

29yrswithaGApass Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 There was an ad in the newspaper the other day that you can get into the theme park after 5pm Monday thru Friday until Labor Day for just $19.99. Not a bad deal considering going to the movies costs $10+ and it is usually over in under 2 hours. Plus food and snacks cost more at the movies!

JetsDevs4Lyf Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 That is a great deal for sure. I'm betting people will take advantage of that one whenever possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railer Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I just saw a T.V. commercial and I believe it said, buy one get one free with a can of coke, but the price was only 24.99. That is only 12.50 per person if you split the price. I'm pretty sure that is what was advertised. If so, that is the lowest iv'e seen an admission in a long time. I havent seen a price that low since it cost 14.00 for a daily ticket and 39.99 for a Season Pass. Yes, I do remember that low of a price, I'm that old.

JetsDevs4Lyf Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I guess it will depend n what the local crowd is like because they are the ones most likely to be taking advantage of the offer since it begins at 5pm especially during the week where the park isn't open as late.
