(Though, to be honest, the next person who pays $59.99 to visit Magic Mountain for a day might be the first. Six Flags discounted heavily again this summer, offering one-day tickets on its website for just $39.)
SoCal residents, as usual, can get a discount to Disneyland. The current deal is five bucks off the one-day park-hopper (making it $78). As always, check your local auto club, credit union or school or work activities department for additional discounts, as well.

If you're coming from out of town, then they want you to buy the 3-day ticket for $150, or better, the 4-day for $170 (on line prices listed). Or, what I do, the $240 AP that only blocks out 35 days (holidays and summer Saturdays).
So, the 1-day ticket is so expensive, only to make the 4+ day tickets such a bargain in comparison.
Hopefully the new fingerprint bio-metric devices will work out, and DLR can switch to the WDW model of 1 AP that costs $500-ish, and expect everyone else to go with non-transferrable, 10-day hoppers with 1 year expiration.
And for Greg, who has "22 world-class coasters and at LEAST 6 really good flat rides"?
Magic Mountain I believe has close to that number of coasters, BUT never runs them all at the same time. AND their flat rides are a joke.
Plus, when you get to that number of coasters, they start to repeat themselves after about 15 or so.
I know that when leave home to visit a new park, I rarely look at the price. I personally always looked at theme parks as somewhat of a bargain when one could spend $30 at the movies, or $40 for ten go-kart laps at a local funpark.
