Have fun, look great and save money with these 3 easy tips!
Ok, so with the cost of just about everything rising at a steady pace, it’s hard to justify dropping any more money.
Usually saving money means cutting costs and paring back essentials (and non-essentials) in order to save a penny. But what happens when “essentials” and “non-essentials” become one in the same? Take outdoor sports for example; diehard snowboarders and skiers do not see a day spent at the hill as a non-essential. It is a downright necessity; to go to the hill, to have the gear and to spend money on getting there (and on lift tickets) for the day, or even the weekend.
All of this adds up to some serious cash dropping by the end of the season. Here are some quick tips to save money and maximize your time spent at the hill.
1. Carpool: With the cost of fuel on a continuous rise, carpooling to the hill not only saves you gas money, but also allows you to help lower environmentally harmful fuel emissions and saves wear and tear on your vehicle. A cool bonus from carpooling is the fact that you get to take part in a mini road-trip!
2. Go on a group vacation: Round up some of your best pals and pitch in on renting a chalet for a weekend (or longer). You will save money on accommodations and everything else having to do with your vacation. Potluck your food;
not only will you have a full stomach (a necessity for energy needed on the hill) but you’ll also have a full wallet too!
Don’t forget to ask for group rates for your co-op vacation; many resorts have discounted rates for lift tickets if your group is over a certain size. Make sure to ask the booking agent when you are researching the cost of booking
the resort.
3. Upgrade your old equipment: If you pass on purchasing brand new equipment, you’ll save a ton of money - allowing you to be at the hill more often! Upgrade your old equipment instead by adding a FreshFaceTM to your board or skis. Don’t forget that FreshFacesTM are manufactured from weather and UV safe vinyl.
If spending time at the hill is your goal and you want to save money, it’s easy to do if you think consciously, and collaboratively with FreshPow!
