Originally Posted By gadzuux It was either von's or albertson's - I'm not sure which. They were hanging by the registers, near the tabloids. They had a selection of one and two day tix, and adult and youth. But they were only valid through the end of may. The offer didn't include the summer months. And as I recall, the cashier had to call a manager over to the register to do something to validate them. But yes, it was a great value, and I'd like to do the same thing next month when I'm in socal.

Originally Posted By Hans Reinhardt I respectfully disagree with those complaining about the price increases. Here are my reasons. *Disneyland and DCA are by far, two of the best theme park experiences in the country. Disney can charge a premium because the overall experience is incomparable. The parades and shows alone are more entertaining that what many competing parks have to offer. Disney can only charge what the market can bear. *The parks are obviously very expensive to operate, and like everything else, those expenses are no doubt rising accordingly. I noticed that most of the major attractions seem to require that at least five to six cast members to operate them. Even a modest ride like Mulholland Madness had four employees working when I rode the attraction. *While DL is overdue for an E ticket, a huge reinvestment in infrastructure has taken place over past few years. The place is spiffy. I cannot remember the last time I saw DL look so good, and it appears that the cost cutting on upkeep has been dumped in favor of making the place shine again. Now, none of this is to suggest that the place is not without problems; however, I think consumers are willing to shell out the money for DLR if the experience is well above par. And it is.
Originally Posted By avromark Do you know how many times it seems to me David has reported price increases? However if Disneyland wants to attract more tourist visiters maybe they should consider perhaps holding back on the $4 price increases. We generally spend more per day spent in time. Then again if Disneyland wants them to go to Disneyland (The casual tourist who lives closer or about the same distance to Disneyworld) they need to offer more incentives to go to Disneyland. Many tourists don't quite place the same premium on DL starting it all, they just care about bang for the buck and the appeal of "more" (over the whole resort not MK). Most casual tourists don't really place priority in a unabridged POTC. Most tourists I know of here don't really care about revolutions like Fast Pass, or crazes such as pin collecting or Princesses. Even though it is a premium product, Walt wanted DL to appeal to the "everyman" family. The average family cannot justify $300.00+ for a day of fun.
Originally Posted By Hans Reinhardt "Disneyland is worth the $$$ to most but I cannot jusify to a family how its going to cost them 300+ JUST to get INTO the park for one day." Do you know that the current single day admission to both Sea World, Magic Mountain and USH are $59, only a four bucks less than DLR's new single day ticket?
Originally Posted By Hans Reinhardt "Even though it is a premium product, Walt wanted DL to appeal to the "everyman" family. The average family cannot justify $300.00+ for a day of fun." The fact is that it's been a long, long time since Disneyland was priced for "everyone". I think that Walt had it right, however we are living in the reality of a 21st Century economy where a two bedroom house sells for almost a million dollars in some places.
Originally Posted By avromark Not to start a new argument, but the economics of the parks is different now as well, now we all pay basically a flat rate for a certain time period, perhaps if it was truly pay as you play, then the parks would make more economic sense. I'll leave it to the number crunchers to determine if the ticket system would make Disneyland more "fair" in terms of cost.
