Saw these tickets this past week at our North Austin Costco. Approx $145 for a 3-day park to park ticket. Originally thought that we would get annual passes for our family of 5. 1 of the annual passes that allows merchandise and hotel discounts and free parking and 4 of the cheapest annual passes. We were wondering if we could buy the Costco tickets now and get a major part of the ticket expense out of the way (also not sure if we will get a percentage rebated back on our Costco AMEX card) and then upgrade them once we get to the park. The last time I checked, they allow you to break up the FL resident annual passes into payments if purchased on-line but non FL resident cannot break the cost of the cheapest annual pass into payments.
