Half price tickets
« on: July 09, 2010, 08:06:17 AM »
It seems every where I turn all I see are ticket outlets, ticket booths, etc.  How does this work?  Are these outlets all associated with a timeshare visits?  Does it help or hurt a theater by purchasing tickets at one of these booths?  Has anyone used these and do they have a favorite?  Or should I avoid them like I have?  Thanks?

You might save a little on your tickets like a buck or 2.
Some of those are time share.
If you WANT to do a time share weekend I suggest the Blue Green company, they are in the Bass Pro stores and will sign you up there.  I am fairly sure you can stop at the Bass Pro in SPringfield and they will set you up right there.  THey were at the front of the stores when I was there.  This will get you free rooms plus some extras for a trip through there units.  I just did this in Pigeon Forge and it was well worth it.
Really lowered the price of my vacation.

It is an alternative.  We used to do it all the time.  It doesn't take a great amount of time, and most of them stopped using high-pressure tactics.  You still have to have will power though; they make things look pretty good.

You can always go to the Wilderness camp ground and get 2 day tickets for the price of one.  Just wal in the door and ask for the 2 day tickets.  They don't care if you are staying there or not.

This place has tickets for some shows, attractions, and motels and there's no timeshare tour involved.

You can always give aaa travel a call or go to fourstateshomepage.com and check out half priced deals. They change weekly and its a crap shoot of what they put up but I have gotten twofers at resturants like red lobster on there! or you could try great southern travel. I think they have two day tickets.....
