Categories: Amusement Parks, Recreation Park, Family Destination, Budget

With the average admission ticket of a local recreational park ranging from $40 to $50 per person, a family outing could be quite expensive. Nevertheless, there are consumer smarts ways to save at the amusement park.



Never pay more. . Many workplaces, grocery store chains, banks and other businesses offer discount amusement park tickets. Snoop around to learn about any discount opportunities. Quite often, you can save up to 50 percent on these types of deals. Amusement parks advertise special promotions in local newspapers.

Research it. Visit the recreational parks' Web site to learn about their latest promotions. Then call the park's guest service center to determine if there are any other promotions. Moreover, you may inquire if there are any other scheduled events of the day.

Invite others. At many amusement parks, a group of 10 or more qualifies for a "group discount.” As a result, invite other families and friends so you can reap a significant savings.

Synchronize your visit. If you are looking to not only save on money but the time you spend in each line, plan your trip accordingly. To miss the early flood of families, synchronize your visit with the amusement park's low cost late day pass. For instance, Six Flags Great America late day pass starts at 5 PM.

Pack a picnic. Most recreational parks are not known for their cuisine flair. Instead of opting for over-priced and unappetizing food, pack a family picnic. Although most amusement parks like Walt Disney World® Resort do not allow outside foods, certain ones have picnic grounds outside of the recreation area.
