GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Wow they really need cash flow. Quote
GSSucks Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Can they be applied towards the purchase of a season pass? Quote
indiggio Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Lots of talk on the advert about season pass, perhaps?? Also says "Anything on the Mountain"... Edited March 7, 2016 by indiggio Quote
enjoralas Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 Can they be applied towards the purchase of a season pass? Yes. And you can use more than one gift card in the transaction. They probably do need cash flow, but they've run this deal every 2-3 months for at least the last year or so 1 Quote
enjoralas Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 Just a quick word of warning. They are not yours when they're in your cart. They can still sell out from under you. Check out quick. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Sold out already I got 4.wow that was fast. I guess you can use them at slopeside. I would have bought like a dozen of them to use for season pass. Quote
enjoralas Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 Yeah, it goes quick. I tried to be very clear about that, lol Got 4 myself. I used 6 on the season pass I just bought. When you go to trade the vouchers for the physical gift card, most of the time if you ask they will combine two onto one $100 card. That seems to be the highest they can do though. 1 Quote
indiggio Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) I only bought 1, didn't want to be greedy... Thanks enjoralas for the heads-up! Edited March 7, 2016 by indiggio Quote
toast21602 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 wow that was fast. I guess you can use them at slopeside. I would have bought like a dozen of them to use for season pass. That's what I'm going to do. I only put 4 in my basket because I didn't know what the limit was. Still $200 for $100 is pretty good. Yeah, it goes quick.

Does it matter if you combine gift cards?? I just figure you could buy something for $49 with two $25 gift cards. I still feel bad for blue they're really desperate for cash flow plus have to pay a commission to the third party site selling these. Quote
enjoralas Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 I only bought 1, didn't want to be greedy... I'm generally a sharing person, as you can see, shared this deal here with y'all even though it lessened my chance to get in. But within the parameters of a particular deal, I'm all in, lol. As in, I was logged into my account, they could have made it one per up address, one per credit card, one per payment address, etc. But since they didn't, I'll load up. I'm not as hardcore as most of you, I can ski once, maybe twice a week. I gotta do whatever j can to get the season pass price down to justify it to my wife. 1 Quote

Doesn't really matter, but buying a $500 season pass is easier with 5 $100 cards than 10 $50 one's. And a bit less of a douche move to the anxious people behind you at the ticket window. Quote

Yeah, it's only on me that I didn't want to buy more, no hate towards anyone else from buying more as you state, they allow it so be it. I hear ya about getting a pass as cheap as possible! Go for it! Quote
Shadows Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Doug why do you keep saying blue needs money? The income for this wont even pay for a lwayer consult if they go bankrupt. This is marketing/advertising. If i was awake i would bought a halg price season pass essentially. Damn 1 Quote

Damn Because Blue is down at least 30+ percent this year of course they need money and this sale raised them a quick $2500 minus whatever the website charged. Shadows you getting a season pass for next season? Only $519 before April 1 Quote
Shadows Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Because ther staff cant handle loads and larger. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 If the limit was like 100,000 they raise enough for a new lift. 1 Quote
toast21602 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 If the limit was like 100,000 they raise enough for a new lift. Yes that's what they need. Definitely not enough uphill capacity at Blue. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Yes that's what they need. Definitely not enough uphill capacity at Blue. For the new pod!!! Quote
