Discounted Lift Tickets in Utah

A few years ago during a trip to SLC I could buy discounted lift
tickets at Smiths Supermarkets. I don't recall which ski area they
were for.

I'm headed back there for a few days in early February and plan
on getting in a few days of skiing. Are there any establishments
that sell discounted lift tickets at the greater SLC ski areas?
If so, would you be so ever kind to tell me what they are?

Thanks. (No e-mail please).

In previous seasons they have been readily available at Smith's, Gart
Sports, some other sporting goods chain whose name I can't remember, and
the ski rental kiosk at the airport next to the baggage claim. IOW,
lots of places to get them. A cursory survey showed that the prices at
the various places were within a dollar of each other, so it's hardly
worth your time to shop around.

Discounts were available for most of the areas, with the exception of
Deer Valley (no discounts, ever) Park City (who stopped their discount
program last year when they realized they were selling more discount
tickets than full price tickets) and Sundance (which is so inexpensive
as it is that there's no point in offering discounts).

I'd say get out the phone book and call Gart or Smith's and ask them
what they have.

I ski DV for about $35/day. That's a coupon book. I have bought tickets for
DV at Smiths for some $ off in the past.
