Ihave 4 one day vouchers that expire on 3/13...I have season passes and they were from last year. I am hoping to ski this weekend but dont know if I can get to K this weekend depending on the storm and now driving aFWD car.
Was looking to sell for $50 a piece or get the tickets and try to turn them in for new vouchers for next year. Do you have a creative solution for the 4 vouchers (no name listed on vouchers just the expiration dates)?

Where are you located? I know someone in the NYC area that might be interested in some of those.

In the giving spirit of the average Joe who can't afford the outrageous prices, I think it would be a good idea to start a contest and donate them to the person who has the most convincing argument as to why he/she thinks they should get them for free, what do you think, Joe, time to put up or shut up.

Hey shortski, when you give me three nights of free skiing & lodging then you and I can talk.
A$65 lift ticket is discounted to $50.....money talks and your BS walks.
BTW what are you doing to help anyone but your self? Then again who cares!
Hey Joe, I'm calling you out

Joe, you're the one who is constantly crying about how high the prices are and how the average Joe can't afford the sport. Now you are the one holding tickets that will expire this weekend. I find it some what disingenuous that the same person, who posted for all to list the vacancies on the trip up, would rather charge $50 for something that will be useless to anyone after this weekend. It seems that you feel different when the shoe is on your foot? I say again, start a contest for the "Average Joe" who can't afford to ski, and give them away, that's what I do with the vouchers I get during the season, then maybe some of the crap you spout will have some relevance.

Hey mental midget,
I will turn the tickets in for freebies for another 12 months, so I wont eat them. HAHA, LMAO.....you are NOT to bright.
Secondly, when you pay for something yourself rather than let Daddy pay for you, then tell me how to spend my money.
Thirdly, if you cant help anyone save money and still enjoy skiing, then you expose yourself as the idiot who just wants to starts fires online.
My efforts were to help another, what have you done for anyone else but yourself to make skiing enjoyable, price wise or otherwise?
On the other hand who cares what you think....your skiing is paid for.

If you are talking about Shortski, let it be known that the man worked hard for a long time and he is now enjoying retirement. The money he spends he earned. Also Mr. Joe smarty pants you can thank Shortski for coming to the rescue when Killington shut down its chat room. If you are here just to make trouble, then please go away and go bother some other chatroom. Otherwise, please refrain from insulting people.

You mention that you're not sure if you're going to be at Killington this weekend. I guess it would be kind of tough to redeem those vouchers if you're not there. If you do happen to get up there and redeem those vouchers, how do you plan to turn them in for new vouchers for next year? Complain about the conditions? Ha! Good luck with that one.
If you do successfully get Killington to issue another voucher, it'll only be good for the period of time left on the original voucher. So your new vouchers will only be good till 3/13/2005.
Who's the mental midget?

Why are there so many unused vouchers in JoeSixPacks pocket after this weekend?
Because the prices are too high!!!!!
Are you paying for dinner with the dust from your slips of paper?
Stop hosing the everyday skier who is not Donald Trump!
My point is instead of charging 50/voucher and dropping it so that you cant cover your dinner costs (an appetizer and a main course), find a price somewhere inbetween. The ripple down affect will lower costs across the board for your dinner of all types at every level. And when the bill comes due from your waiter, waitress, maitre d, the restaurant does not care that your vouchers went unsold because of you're a cheap bastard, the waiter won't want to hear that you can't pay the tip because you didn't make any money selling your vouchers because you did not get the $$$ p/voucher that you charged.
I love dueling with an unarmed man......

Killington is under no o obligation to extend the time on your vouches, read the voucher.
Secondly, when you pay for something yourself rather than let Daddy pay for you, then tell me how to spend my money.
You don't know me, not to bore everyone on the board but I worked for everything I have, high school educated, retired at 55 no pension, I live off my smart investing, I take ownership of my life and don't expect people to give or feel sorry because I can't cut it.
Thirdly, if you cant help anyone save money and still enjoy skiing, then you expose yourself as the idiot who just wants to starts fires online.

Aa I stated, the vouchers I get through the season I give away, I get them by doing a verity of volunteer things on the mountain, when I get the vouchers I donate them to the adaptive ski program at Pico.
On the other hand who cares what you think....your skiing is paid for.
It’s not what I think, it's what you said about the sport being too expensive, again put your money where you mouth is, that’s all.

I know the voucher system well shortski, and no I won't lose out even if I ski on Sunday/Monday....but thank you for the tip!
I can appreciate a self-made man...congratulations on any succees you may have achieved. But is there a need for the deprecating spam?
IF in fact you are sharing free vouchers that you did not pay for (yes you state you earned them), you are too be commeded for your efforts.
My tickets were paid for and given to me on the ski days that conditions (weather or trail conditions) warranted. My $$$ paid for these tickets, I am not rich like you although I know I work very hard to allow me an my family a chance to ski. Punish me with more spam for not achieving the level of success that you have.
PLease forgive me for stating that skiing IS an expensive sport. I guess being a hardworking father of 2, that skiing should be expensive to keep those of us less fortunate from crowding the slopes for the beautiful people of the world. But then again if skiing is only for the privelege, then there should be no need to providing free ski vouvhers to Pico as you do, they can afford their own.
And to the other SPAMMERS, I know that without a moderator like the old room had, credible issues many times often were removed unnecessarily.
One thing it did do, was remove the many idiots who post just to stir sh.t up.
So keep the SPAM coming, it can be easily found here. Maybe, it is just a lot of Yankee fans doing it too!
