The funny money Tim used to buy me beer.

There sure is a lot of beer drinking on this site.

Well Jeff it's Cedar Point what are ya gonna do ya know?

"SAMPO"

Good question Duane!
I would have to say my blue employee uniform and rain gear since while working there they were God sends many a nights with the "lovely" Halloweekends weather. I have used both items several times both at the Po!nt and at home. The rain gear is awesome for working around the barn when it's rainy or snowing, and I am sure I will need it at least once during this CP season too!

But the BEST $$ spent at CP for me would have HAD to been the discount tik I bought back in '96 when a coworker said I needed to stop going to PKI and check out CP.
THAT tik and THAT visit was ALL it took for me!
And the rest my friends.....is history!

The book _Cedar Point: Queen of American Watering Places_

I have the original edition, bought at the park when it first came out. Early 90's I think.

2002 Season Pass!

Don't forget the famous French Fries too!! :)

Units (though I suppose those really aren't bought at the park).

The best thing, far and away, was last year's Joe Cool season pass. I took front seat on Raptor twelve times in a row in an hour with 2,000 people watching from the other side of the front gate. Joe Cool paid for itself with the first use in Snoopy Boutique. Food discounts were gravy (pardon the pun). If you don't have Joe Cool Club membership, get it.

No CP Dave, don't tell people that. The less people that buy a membership means more ERT for us! But seriously, that $15 Joe Cool Club membership was the best money I ever spent at CP (aside from the season pass). I also think the souvenier maps are an amazing deal and money well spent. I have maps from 1989, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 2000, & 2001. I wish I had gotten maps from all those years in between. I went to the park all those years, just never thought to pick up a map.

Yeah, I know what you mean there Chris. My little collection starts at 1987 and I've have one for every year since except 1991, and 1992. I went to the park both those years, just don't have maps. It really takes a bit out of watching CP grow in those years.

Best money spent at cp...I would have to say the maps too. I always pick one up on my last visit of the season.

Best money spent ON cp but not AT cp would have to be my buttons! I'm a huge button collector, i've got at least 50. And my favorite would be my Banshee button (well, actually my 5 banshee buttons :) )
