Im studying in Luxembourg currently. For my last weekend (THIS WEEKEND) I want to go skiing somewhere. Im on a pretty tight budget. Mind you, I don't have my skis here, so I would be renting equipment. Where should I go that has good snow and at an affordable price/accomodation?

Les Deux Alpes if you can make it down there, and the riders lodge is like €35 a night I think, and there is a place in it where I rented my park boots for the day when I didn't have mine for like €6 a day, i'm sure they had park skis in as well. hope this helps, if thats too far, go to Amsterdam for the weekend, they have loads of indoor snow domes around!

The Alps are hurting for snow right now, so if you drive down here, you probably want to go to a glacier resort. Staying and skiing in the Alps is usually pretty spendy, so if your budget is really tight, it might be worth it to find somewhere to ski indoors in the Low Countries.
In general Austria's cheaper than Switzerland or France. I work in Kaunertal which has a great park up right now. You might also check out the Stubai Glacier or Hintertux. In Switzerland I hear good things about Saas Fee.
