Oddly enough I guess a season pass would pay off if you were to attend the Fall festival, as well as the OTC for 1 day each. Seems late, but even if you went to the area for a week, and wanted to have 2 non consecutive days, it would pay off.

Yeah I guess you're right. It's still a better deal as long as you're planning to visit the park more than twice for the rest of the year, I just can't see anyone buying one this late but you never know. I suppose you would still get all the perks except for the BAF's, WW discount and IIRC some coupons that come in the envelope expire fairly early in the year.

Last year an adult ticket was 77.38 and that was buying it in November

Keep that number in mind, because it will be interesting to see if it goes up by a few dollars. Every year, it seems like more companies are quietly slipping in higher prices.

Related, yet unrelated story. Down at the Branson Landing the Bass Pro Shop sales Jon Boats. In 2010 the price for a 10' boat was $469. This year the price for a 10' boat was $489.

It will be interesting to see what Silver Dollar City does with their ticket prices.

I believe they PTB know that the seasons pass is there bread and butter.
They don't want to pull a " Netflicks" here.......

I'll try again tomorrow.

I was looking to see when SDC was going to sell the 2012 season passes and came upon this site, in fact this very thread. I was just at SDC's site and they still don't show 2012 season passes for sale. I may check my local credit union as they sell season passes also, they may know when they go on sale.

Talking about the Times, I wonder how come I didn't get one. I got one last year I think. Of course last year I couldn't go to SDC anyways, financial reasons, so I didn't even get a season pass.

MissinTheGreenTrams · November 03, 2011, 04:53:28 PM

whoooo thats reeasonable!!! yay for good prices!!

sanddunerider · November 03, 2011, 05:12:56 PM

Welcome! I would say since the times is out, you could probably call the SDC office and order them..

I asked about this on their facebook page today:

Quote from: Silver Dollar CityThank you for asking David! The 2012 Season Passes should be available for online purchase by Saturday, November 5th. And yes, the new "Guest Program" that is in your November Times is replacing the past "Bring-A-Friend" program. We look forward to seeing you in 2012!

I like that HFEC is seeing the opportunity to allow people who cannot drop hundreds of dollars at one time to use their new Flex Payment plan on season passes:

"Now through February 12, 2012, Silver Dollar City offers a 2 payment plan for 2012 Season Pass purchases! The Flex Pay 2 Payment Option is a simple 2 step payment program designed to make your 2012 Season Pass purchase easier during the holiday season."

Basically you pay 1/2 the total amount on the date of purchase, and 30 days later pay the remaining balance.

That's been an option for at least the last two years. But yes, it is a good idea.
