Six Flags Ticket for $6.98?

I was in Wal-Mart today waiting on them to install my new tires, and I wandered down to the outdoor toy section. There I found a slip and slide like slide with the name Six Flags something or other. Anyway, the slide was priced at 6.98 and the box claims that there is a coupon for a free six flags ticket inside. I am guessing it might be for a child's ticket. I almost bought it to find out but I don't really see myself using the slide :) There is a whole line of these Six Flags branded water toys and all of them that I saw advertised the coupon on the box.

Anyway, seems like Six Flags is once again giving away a lot of tickets - that is if anyone buys these toys.

It's probably a SFWOA ticket. Seems like everyone and their grandmother* has free tickets to the property now named Geauga Lake.

*Please do not bring Grandmother.

I noticed one of the water toys with a Six Flags logo, and perhaps a Six Flags ticket coupon. And I might have even seen it at the Wal-Mart across the street from the parking lot for Geauga Lake.

Anyway, has anyone here EVER paid full price to enter a Six Flags park?

I feel like I paid too much back when I had my SFWoA season passes. It sounds like I could have gone for free!

Same can be said for CF parks. Has anyone paid full price to get into a CF park?

The answer should be no. Always discounts out there.

I have never paid a dime to enter a Six Flags park. Good times.

Even with free or inexpensive tickets, they still sock it to you with a $10 service charge, err I mean "parking fee." *** Edited 5/28/2004 1:40:48 PM UTC by gardener14***

I have paid to park on occassion. I do pay to eat, and play games. I give the prizes away to the nearest kid. Even though I am comped at almost every park, it is a show of respect to drop some loot.

Those water slides came out two summers ago so I'm guessing that if the ticket offer is legit it probably expired after the 2002 or 2003 season.

I'm impressed that you have the tomach to eat most SF food. Sorry I couldn't resist a dig!

Anyone who EVER pays full price to enter ANY amusement park is dumb. There are always, always discounts, whether it's from a pop can, gas station coupon or AAA.

Yes the free ticket from the water slides is only for children. I also was walking through the same section of a Walmart, however I saw a squirt gun that had the same offer. If you look very very closly at the small print on the bottom of the box it will say "A Free Child's Ticket".
