I'm sure we're all feeling the effects of the economy. 4.09 a gallon for regular gas right down the street from me, with experts predicting it will go even higher. My grocery bill has gone up substantially. Don't even mention the job situation.
With more of our money going to everyday cost of living expenses, I am wondering how this will effect faire attendance this year, especially from the regular rennie group? With no season passes, I am wondering if the PTB will offer more incentives to ensure attendance does not suffer. $2 off admission may not be as tempting this year as it was last year. Has anyone heard anything on ticket incentives?
Personally, I am hoping to make it to faire at least 3 times this season as opposed to 5 last year. Not a lot, but that the way it goes. Last year, gas was around 3.20 during faire season if I recall correctly.
Just curious to see the thought of other on this topic.
