ive heard you can get them cheap at the market in dillon or at like grocery stores and stuff around, sometimes hotels will offer you a deal if you go to a timeshare pitch or something but those suck ass and arent worth it usually

True, there is also a City Market in Avon, which is about six miles west of vail.  Also, there is a Safeway on the frontage road in Vail, you can get some discount tickets there also.

the safeway is probably your easiest bet.  frontage road is easy to find.  good luck man

no, Avon is after vail, its maybe 10 miles if you keep on I-70 past vail.  because i live here, they give residents and students all sorts of discounts so i dont know too much about getting discounted packages, but i'm pretty sure if you even just buy a four day pass its signifigantly cheaper than a single day pass.  if you know anyone with a season pass, they get four discounted passes on that, so thats a possibility.  otherwise, look for package deals with hotels and such, thats all i got.
