Planning Universal visit next month, looking for cheapest tickets?

[Kellydelly]

I looked at Mapleleaf, Universal, AAA, and Undercovertourist. I think Undercovertourist has the best ticket prices (looking for 3 day park-to-park). Does anyone know of any good deals I may be missing? I so wish I had gotten my tickets from Mapleleaf recently when they had their great price on 7 day tickets .

I haven't purchased our tickets yet either, but found the tickets on Universal's website cheaper than UT.

I was looking tonite and saw the opposite . I plan to buy 4 day park to park passes, which were the same price as 3 day tickets (not sure if that is an error). They were more expensive on Universal's site, plus Universal's price doesn't include tax.

I bought our tickets for Disney through UT last year and saved a TON! I signed up for the monthly newsletter at mousesaver.com and on the 15th of the month they send it out with a special link that has even better prices then normally. I know we saved about 100$ last year so I'm hoping for a good savings this time too. They say they take about 10 business days to ship but it was less then that for us. Hopefully is will be again this year because we leave in a couple of weeks!

If you see a good deal, you'd better jump on it. There's no telling how long the specials are good for and I know you'd hate to miss something.

We're looking at 2-day base tickets...

Prices through UT were $121.95 per adult, and $109.95 per child.
Direct through Universal, $114.99 per adult, and $101.99 per child.

So yes, approx $30. cheaper through Universal's website.

The price at the Universal site is before taxes. When I priced it out for our family of 4, UT was about 20$ less then Universal and that included taxes. Not a huge savings but sometimes every little bit helps.

UT prices include the tax; the prices on the Universal site do not. So the $114.99 becomes $124.62 after you add it to your cart and they add the taxes.

Thanks guys, that makes sense then. LOL I'll save $7 buying them at UT

If you are looking for 3 day (I think park-to-park), Some Costco stores, mainly on the east coast I believe, have a 3-day that doesn't expire for a few years and if you don't use all of the days, you can save them until the expiration date. I think they were cheaper than any of the current prices. If able, you may want to just check it out to see if it's a better deal for you.
Have a wonderful time wherever you end up getting your tickets.
