You can find the Cedar Point Marketplace, which has Cedar Point Merchandise, and tickets here:

I think it's about time they got more into the e-commerce scope of things.

So what does "Apparel for Pennsylvania and Minnesota Residents" mean?
Also, what is the purpose of Cedar Point Money? Are they thinking of eventually phasing out real cash?

Probably means us Pennsylvanians and Minnesotans have to pay sales tax on the orders.
Cedar Point money has been around for years.

Yes, but why would you want to buy it? Why go through all the trouble to replace the paper money you already have?

Gee Jeff, maybe SOMEONE would give you CP Money as a gift. I know if I got some I'd probably head straight for the Red Garter and a nice "cold one" during the show.

Homer: One adult and four children.
Woman: Would you like to buy some Itchy and Scratchy Money?
Homer: What's that?
Woman: Well it's money that's made just for the park. It works just like regular money, but it's, er..."fun".
Bart: Do it, Dad.
Homer: Well, OK, if it's fun...let's see, uh...I'll take $1100 worth.
[Homer walks in, sees all the signs: "No I&S Money", "We Don't Take Itchy and Scratchy Money", etc.]
Homer: Aw!

That was nice of him.
Do all the shops, stands and rides take the funny money?

Maybe he gave you a dollar so you'd stop talking to him. ;)

Bingo Jeff.
Over heard in Magnum line on Monday evening.
"Here little boy, take this dollar and go play skeeball!"
And as for those posted signs, I'll never stop riding coasters, the day the Doctor tells me to stop riding them is the day I make my appointment with Dr. K up in Michigan.

For what it's worth, the signs do not say that senior citizens (or people with heart trouble, etc.) "cannot" ride. The park leaves that up to each individual's discretion.

Anyone know the exact wording they use. I find it odd that Magnum would even have a sign saying that and Millennium Force does not.

"Guests with heart, back, or neck problems... should not ride" -- of course, it is all up to the individual guest. One of my friends had scoliosis in elementary school and has had steel rods in her back ever since, and she talked to her doctor, and now she goes on everything. Cedar Point's coasters are very safe, and the warnings are there "just in case".
