NMSKI Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Is the payment plan based on the pre November price??? I'm not paying anything till Halloween. It works out perfect for me because my rent is free in October because I got a free month of rent along with a 12 month lease so I save $725 in October which is about what my season pass at blue is.It's based off $675, so I'll pay $95 per month for 7 months.

I'm familiar with the time value of money, but this helps me "smooth" out the expense which is helpful. I might seem rich, but it can be hard to manage expenses with the kids and shit that comes up.

Your families expenses are prob triple as much as what my individual expenses are lol...as for time value of money yeah that's what I was thinking. I don't consider someone to be rich if they still have to work. Well off yes. Not rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillycore Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 I get the early bird price and charge it on a card....by the time I pay it off I've probably paid double the normal price anyway.... If I don't buy a pass than I would probably bail out a lot of weekends because I have an excuse....save $$, time, gas, conditions not the best, etc.. So having a pass makes it easier....

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 The last few years I've paid for my pass via check. I try to use credit card as little as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFskiDan Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 i like paying the least amount for something. therefore my pass has been purchased. By the time ski season starts to wrap up, im spending money i havent made yet, but its like that every year since my income in the winter is pretty low. If the early bird wasnt as attractive as it is, i would definitely do the payment plan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 I like to hold out in case I get sponsored by Jackson hole. In a few years I'll be saying bye bye to blue mountain and spending my winters in the Rocky Mountains!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enjoralas Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 I hope they keep offering those half price $50 gift cards year after year. I've already accumulated enough to pay for my 2017-2018 pass, plus tubing passes for my wife and 2 year old. Time value of money is great, but it's tough to get 100% ROI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
