Costco 4-day parkhoppers now $239

[the donut]

Noticed the Costco price on the SoCal parkhoppers has increased to $239 when we went to Costco this weekend. Didn't see a post about it yet. I believe it still includes the $50 gift card but forgot to stop and look at the fine print regarding expiration and upgrade value.

I saw that as well. They are also listed as $239 on their website...Good thing I bought mine a month ago for our trip this week

Do the newly priced Costco hoppers expire after August 31? The $199 ones did, so maybe these have a later expiration?

I went to look for these online, and there isn't a current link to any product. It says that the item is no longer available.

I was going to say the same thing. I looked at the Costco website just now and there is no availability on the parkhoppers.

That's no deal at all. I just bought 4 day hoppers for $188.82 from GAT. They matched the price I found on LMT.
And that's for everyone, not just SoCal.

GAT? LMT?

I'm also wondering about gat & lmt. I am looking to buy tickets for my family that lived down in that area as cheap as I can and then for myself who lives in WA so will probably just get mine on line.

GAT? LMT?

Getawaytoday and lastminutetravel (.com). They have package deals but also sell just parkhoppers or character dining vouchers.

Yes, this no longer a good deal. It does generally have a long fuse to allow multiple visits to be spread out over a year or so which is why it might appeal to locals. I'm guessing the price increase does extend the expiration date, but I forgot to take a look. I'll check it out the next time I go to Costco if someone else doesn't beat me to it.

Curious why you price-matched and didn't just buy at LMT.

I've just heard great things about Getawaytoday and their customer service. Also, I like the idea that I don't have to wait for a voucher for my tickets. I just show ID at any ticket window at DL and they give me my tickets.

P.s. to Memoriesinthemaking,
Thanks for answering about the abbreviations. I was on the road all day yesterday

With LMT you print a voucher and take that to the window. So can you explain more why showing ID is better than a voucher?

Really considering buying and would like to choose the best place..thanks.

Ok, well, I was going to go with Costco - I hadn't looked into it much and was going to go into Costco on Saturday and buy one for my trip Sunday. Guess it wasn't that easy or even good for us NorCal people....or even available anymore. Sooooo...... I will check GAT and pray that works. I cannot buy the ticket till Friday or Saturday so I am looking for the best deal with the quickest handover on a ticket. Thanks for heads up!

 

[PrinceOfPeace]

Stinkers! I was looking for to the previous price....maybe they will offer it next year?

Mrs. Pinup, the Costco tickets are not sold in Northern California Costcos, but you can find them online. We found some for sale in the Garden Grove Costco, but I'd feel safer having them in hand before I head down to Southern California.
