Mine is; a good meal followed by some singing and dancing with a little bit of alcohol...What's yours? :D

Another thread has just got me thinking about the average cost of a ski holiday which, I'm sure, is more than I would ever pay. But then I thought it would be good to see who managed the cheapest holiday last year, so the rest of us can get some ideas.

Who's going to start? I don't think mine will count.

If you're driving over, take as many people as you can with you to share the cost - you can take up to 9 people in one vehicle for the same price on a ferry crossing.
Check out any lift pass offers online - family tickets for instance can be cheaper, and there's sometimes discounts on other things thrown in. It might also be cheaper to get the ski pass and channel crossing included in a package with a tour operator.
Finally, small things like planning your shopping carefully i.e. keep resort shopping to a minimum and visit a large supermarket in the nearest large town. You'll also get the cheapest fuel there for the journey home.
Good luck and happy hunting!

...and it'll still set you back a small fortune! :wink:

I love them too much to part with them, but you know me Bandit...any small excuse for some new kit will do! :lol:

Didn't rain much when I was there apart from a couple of days in March and then later in the season.

They're scratched.
