Six Flags is not doing the coupon books for seasonpass holders. You now have to register online for your discounts and rewards here: https://rewards.sixflags.com/login.aspx
I had a Six Flags pass 3 years in a row and never got their coupon book. Mind you I got my pass during October at Great Adventure, but they said it would be mailed to me in the spring. When spring came, I found out you had to go to the park to pick it up (but I wouldn't be there again until the following October). The next year they were supposed to *email* the coupons, which also never happened. The third year I forget what the story was, but by then I'd stopped caring. Now that I didn't renew my pass, they're finally doing it online. Oh well.
Didn't cedar fair also have a coupon book in it's getaway guide for Cedar Point? I don't think they do any more. Almost everything is done online these days, which means that you have to waste more time going to guest relations to find out exactly what you will be getting, even if you print their coupons at home. Which of course still have to be validated.
It could be possible that their reasons for doing so, may be to further curb ticket scalpers from cashing on on selling those perks to anyone. A friend and I went to Great America in Chicago, and there were ticket scalpers in the parking lot selling admission tickets for $20.00 a pop, when admission was over $32.00. They were also selling buy one get one free coupons for $5.00 each. Which I was very surprised they were not arrested.
Apparently these guys, buy massive amounts of tickets at the group rate, and then turn around and sell them for a small profit on each ticket. They were selling those tickets, and coupons like crazy. My friend and I bought the Buy one get one coupon once, and the next time, my friend bought an admission ticket from a scalper, while I paid full price, minus my $10.00 discount with a soda can, and still paid more than my friend did.
Funny thing was, my friend was pissed because Six Flags would not accept his can. I told him, you can't use your can when you already bought the ticket you moron. You use the can when you buy the ticket, not afterwards! He is not very smart upstairs.
As for season pass deals, I did not find anything in the Cedar Fair pass that I was interested in. The only good deal was at MA on the all you can eat Buffet, and the deal I got on the ST on ride photos there. Found nothing of value at Cedar Point.
I didn't do it! I swear!!
I do believe it was actually, buy cheese on a stick, got 2 regular drinks.
Also, $6.99 for the fry deal, which was amazing. Chili-Cheese fries, plus a regular un-topped order of fries and 2 regular drinks.
Let's not forget the 1/2 dozen of the HUGE cookies from CJ's Provisions for $6 deal. That wasn't bad, either.
I never cashed in, but there was a free regular drink with a hot dog at Pinks, and 2 free soft drinks with purchase of 2 stuffed pretzels from The Gazebo. It goes on and on. I didn't even realize half this stuff was on there because I never got around to taking advantage of it.
Yeah, I thought CP had some great deals last year.
That fry deal was insane.
I don't like chili-cheese on my fries at all, but I still paid for that deal because it was still worth it to order "chili-cheese fries" with "no chili" and "no cheese". I'd usually have to repeat and explain the order at least 3 times before the bewildered international employees would catch on, but eventually I'd end up with what I wanted to pay for. Lord help me when I chose to pay extra for garlic parmesan topping on my order.
I'd much rather have Cedar Point's season-long specials than deal with clipping coupons for my visits.

I had the same problem explaining the no chili arrangement, and 50% of the time they got it wrong.

At least they let you. Most times they always just told me no when I asked about "upgrading" to the parmesan fries. I think once they actually agreed to it, but I'm pretty sure they charged me the regular price.
Regardless, that deal was still the most amazing one they had. I hope it'll be back this year.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
