SeaWorld San Antonio Coupons

Posted on March 12, 2010 by *Geekette*

Don’t forget to check out these printable coupons, deals, and events that make seeing Shamu even more worth it! Also find out the difference between SeaWorld’s Fun Pass and their Season pass and when you should buy one over the other. My daughter and I LOVE spending time together at SeaWorld San Antonio. It is a LOT more personal and intimate than other amusement parks, and you just leave with a good feeling.

Fun Pass vs. Season Pass

Fun Pass

Purchase your 2010 Fun Card for the price of a single day admission ticket and come back all year!

Season Pass

Parking Included – show your season pass at the gate for FREE regular parking
20% off food and merchandise – throughout the entire year (just flash your pass)
Pass Member Events – season pass holders get to go to special events just for them! Keep in mind that ONLY the season pass member can attend, not one season pass per family…
Special rates on Behind the Scenes Tours, Camp SeaWorld, and Dine with Shamu.

SeaWorld Promotional Offers

Lifetime Fitness Savings – are you a member of the nationwide gym? Save 20% off at the San Diego location and 15% off at all other Busch Garden locations.

San Antonio Attractions (Greater San Antonio Area Tourism Council) offers this coupon

March Coupons for Sea World San Antonio

20% discount for Sesame Street Breakfast
$10 off Adult/Child one day admission ticket
FREE tray of fish at Sea Lion feeding (w/ purchase of 1 tray)
20% off food and merchandise
20% discount on All You Care to Eat and Drink All Day deal
$5 off Quick Queue Pass (skip lines at a discounted rate!)

MOST RECENT: Annual Pass Members Monthly Coupons/Offers – http://passMemberUpdates.com

Pass Member Advantages:

One reason to consider getting a season pass (instead of a fun pass) is to take advantage of the HUGE savings offered to ONLY season pass holders.

For example, on March 28, 2010 from 12pm to 4pm Pass Members are invited to spin for a chance to win exclusive SeaWorld merchandise or $20 gift cards to Lowe’s. (My daughter and I spun to win at the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo this past February…lots of fun…)

February Deals, Coupons, and Online Sales

Posted on February 18, 2010 by *Geekette*

I just posted a lot of February deals, online sales, and printable coupons. Over 35 discounts for stores, restaurants, online websites, and more! Something for everyone, especially if you missed Valentine’s Day or Chinese New Year and are still looking for a gift! I enjoy taking advantage of all the great deals available and definitely want to share the wealth. Although sometimes its worth paying retail (look for a future blog post on just that topic…)

Enjoy!

*May I also just wish Peyton Manning the best luck! Cheers to a player who’s old-school, who plays each game with incredible enthusiasm and passion (and he still calls his own plays!) I <3 Peyton! Go Colts!

Day After Christmas Sales & Deals

Posted on December 25, 2009 by *Geekette*

Everyone’s done shopping for the year…right?! Ya…me neither. Just in-case anyone is planning to do a little last minute, end of the year shopping, I have compiled a list of 45 retailers (online, in-store, or both…) that are set to expire within the next week or two. Check them out, plan accordingly, they are sorted by expiration date.

*As another helpful hint, I bought a model Christmas tree from Bed, Bath, and Beyond last year the day after Christmas, early in the morning. It is a pre-lit, 9 foot tree and I was able to snag it for $25 after using my Bed, Bath, and Beyond EXPIRED 20% off a single item coupon. Don’t be afraid to ask, it was a great deal for me! They even threw in the red and gold, assorted sizes, ornaments!

Black Friday Starts Now!

Posted on November 26, 2009 by *Geekette*

Although I originally wanted to blog about Black Friday ads, plan of attacks, great deals I personally was excited about I ran out of time as worked sucked the life out of me this month! Just kidding boss…

Anyways, since I now have a second to breathe I am finding all kinds of exciting deals and information and thought I would share it with the class while there is still time. I don’t mind if I’m the only one who uses this post because essentially it is my notes and random Black Friday finds that I want to keep track of somewhere. Since I’m already listing everything in notepad I figured I might as well share it with the world!

Last year I used BFAds.net the most because of its consumer buying guides (suggestions, best deals, and great comparisons on Laptop, TV, camera, Top 10 Toy Deals, etc.) and extensive collection of ads.

Favorite Black Friday Website: BlackFriday2009.com

This year I’ve been tempted away by BlackFriday2009.com by their beautiful layout, inclusive information of the latest ads, hand-picked deals, and accessible blog. When I’m reading their blog I feel like Brad Wilson (founder of both this site and bradsdeals.com) is talking directly to me, telling me that I should take advantage of this site versus that.

Starting as a deal seeking college student, I feel like Brad and I relate…a lot! I love deals, and his Black Friday blog. Watch what he said CNBC about shopping this Friday and also read his Top 10 Best and Worst (weirdest) deals…both really good! It also easily shows the store hours for each of the stores listed, great for planning reconnaissance! He doesn’t just find the deals…he explains which store is best for which product…saving a lot of time and money for all!

Become a fan on Facebook and follow their tweets about sales. Don’t forget to sign up for their email list. Remember, you’re not just signing up for this year, you’re preparing for next year!

Black Friday Links I like

Retail Me Not’s Black Friday list is massive and encompassing. I check this site for promo codes before I buy anything online, check it out for other Black Friday ads.

The following links are not necessarily the obvious Black Friday ads (check out the websites listed above for the big name stores and offers!) These links are to stores and deals I don’t think people know about or thought to check.
