I am thinking of getting an annual pass (for the small room discount, but also to get 10% off food and merchandise in the parks.) Is the discount for tickets purchased at the front of the park 15% for the Preferred Pass? Looks like the gate price of 3 adult tickets is $824 - so 15% off of that would be $700 - which is cheaper than the online purchase price.

The annual pass site says, "discount off of admission", but I wanted to make sure it was 15%.

Also, can the discount be used at the HP stores? I foresee most of my money being spent there! :)
