AAA 2 for 1 Universal Florida Tickets

I was wondering if anyone could help me. Apparently AAA is randomly inserting flyers in some members renewals (or new member sign-ups) for "Buy 1, get 1 Free - Universal Florida 2 Day(3rd Day Free) Passes". You need the promotional code off the flyer to take advantage of the offer and each code can only be used once. If someone receives one of these flyers and is not intending on using it, would you be willing to e-mail me the promotional code. My e-mail is [email protected]. Thanks a lot.

Don't you need a AAA original card when getting those tickets?

Are you a member of AAA? If you are, go by the nearest office and ask for details on this promotion. A lot of times, they can give you the deal right at the office.

Yes I am a member of AAA. For this promotion you just need the pin number from the flyer sent out in some renewals. You then go to a special AAA web-site and punch in your card number and the pin number from the flyer. You can not get the promotion at an AAA office. I have been to Mousesavers and Ticket Mania (as well as many other sites), but this is a much better deal than the discounts they offer. If anybody received a flyer that they're not going to use, I would appreciate it if you could let me know.
Thanks.

Yes, the AAA deal is for two "2 Day - 3rd Day Free" passes for the price of one - so you are getting a 2 Day (3rd Free) for Free. Good Deal.

You may wish to know that on its website Universal also offers 5 day tickets for the price of a 2 day ticket. Mastercard sweetens the offer by giving away a 5th ticket with the purchase of 4 5-day tickets.
Don't know about your circumstances, but I highly recommend staying at one of the hotels on site-Hard Rock, Royal Pacific (I think) or Portofino Bay Hotel (where we just stayed). Your room key gets you express entry to virtually all rides and attractions at either park. It's a benefit worth its weight in platinum. My children (okay, and their parents) rode some rides a dozen times in the time it takes to ride once without the express privilege. While the rack rates are high, I understand that discounts are available with the Entertainment Book, among others. And, while Universal sells a diluted express pass to non-guests of the hotel, it can't be used in as many attractions. Not sure if it allows multiple access to the same ride/attraction. It's around $36/day/person. I'd still buy it rather than stand in line-some attraction lines, e.g., Shrek, exceed 45 minutes during busy times. We waited 3-4 minutes for entry. It's an upgrade you can buy once inside either park.

We're staying at Portofino Bay and had planned to only go to Universal for one day, two parks. But if I can find a coupon, we can afford three days, two parks which would be much more relaxed & enjoyable. We're looking forward to front of the line privileges and Emeril's restaurant!!

Boxergal. The privilege at the Universal attractions is a separate line for hotel guests (not front of line, except at certain City Walk restaurants). Even still, believe it would be impossible to do both parks in one day. Just too much.

We plan to just hit the high points. We're travelling with a 16 year old and he wants to see some of both of the parks plus I want some pictures of myself with the cartoon characters at Island of Adventure so I can send them to my grandkids - they'll get a kick out of that! The Disboards website has information about the AAA offer, but I still need a code and I've tried all of the contacts they listed on their forum. Anyone have a discount code from the AAA coupon to share?
