When we bought our ski gear one month ago there was no sale (beginning of the season) Right now there is a great sale - 25% off.
Unfortunately it is too late for us. We used the stuff and therefore can't return and re-buy it.
I went with my receipts and talked to the manager.
While he would not grant the difference, seeing how we spend a huge sum of money on top grade equipment, he gave us 4 lift tickets to the nearby mountain. ($62 each)
So we got $248 in lift tickets, for just talking to them nicely and explaining our situation.
That shop has a good service and they tried to help.
Also, yesterday I bought a lift ticket(for another mountain) of craigslist. 30$ instead of 60.
So now I have over $300 of lift tickets for which I only paid $30. I intend to use every one of them! (and go on super-saver sundays when the lift is half off).
Big savings on fun through a little effort
