Default Thorpe Park tickets

I'm off to thorpe park next friday, looked on the website and the tickets are £28 on the door, if you pre-book you can save £6 and get it for £22.

Some of the people going are bringing a coupon that they got with their nectar card statements which i dont have. So i did a search on google and got a few places that sell tickets for £15!!

http://www.buyagift.co.uk/cgi-bin/bu...n/catalog/1297

any one used these? you buy online and they send you the ticket in the post.

Seems ok but I'm a bit worried that I'd get dodgy tickets or no tickets at all.

Why are they so cheap??

if u have a spar near you (the grocery store), they have coupons in my local one which entitles you to something like £10 off the "on the door" price - not sure if this is the case in all spars (also not sure if its valid for the date you're going). this means you buy the tickets on the day, and get £10 off. not as good as £15 of course, but it makes it £18, but you do get the piece of mind.

this from the url you gave...

Due to the exceptional value representated, Buyagift cannot be held responsible if tickets are not delivered. Please use the guaranteed next day delivery option for peace of mind.
...sounds sort of crappy.

lastminute.com sell thorpe park tickets at £18 each. i would assume they're a safer bet than a website which openly says that they won't be held responsible if you never receive what you ordered!!

actually i just checked... the spar coupons lets u get in for £15 as the on the door price.

it excludes the following dates tho: oct 4-7 and oct 11-14. the offer is valid until the end of oct (aside from those dates). not sure if thats any good for you.

walk in and pick it up off the counter. there was a huge pile of them on the counter and they were free. didnt even need to buy anything.
