Universal Orlando 3-month passes, under $100

I just ordered 3-Month Passes for our family from the Costco website and can't wait for them to arrive in the mail! We are not Costco members so we paid a 5% surcharge (still cheaper than a membership since there are no stores in our part of NC). Here's what it cost us for these passes for 5 people:

Quantity 5
Universal Orlando® Resort 2-park, 3-month Pass
Item # 130250
Standard Shipping
$84.99 each

Subtotal: $424.95
Shipping & Handling: $12.21
Non-Member Surcharge: $21.25
Tax: $0.00

Order Total: $458.41

Even with the non-members' 5% surcharge and shipping, this came to just $91.69 apiece!

Here are the details of this 3-Month pass offer:

** Good for 3 months (up to 92 days) after activation
** Unlimited visits to both Universal Studios Orlando and Islands of Adventure theme parks
** Must activate by 12/31/07 or it will self-activate then (good thru 3/08)
** Non-transferable w/photo ID at the gate
** Exchange the Costco voucher at Universal Ticket window on arrival
** Offer is not available at the gate and cannot be combined w/other offers
** Parking is not included (currently $11/day).

We'll use these passes to visit the Universal theme parks on 2 different trips - whattadeal!!! :whoopie: Hope this helps someone else here get a good deal too! Just make sure that you don't get these passes for a trip planned after March 2008 since they do expire, unlike the 7-day passes available on the Universal and AAA websites for the same price.

As noted in the instructions, the purchase is for vouchers rather than for the actual tickets. You do have to turn them in for tickets at the ticket window. This will slow your entry into the parks on the first day that you enter but will work just like any offer directly from Universal after that.
