Hungry for financial flexibility, a California man named Dylan shelled out a measly $150 a year to eat every meal at Six Flags Magic Mountain in order to save thousands, pay off his student loan debt, get married and purchase a house in Los Angeles.

“You can pay around $150 for unlimited, year-round access to Six Flags, which includes parking and two meals a day,” Dylan, 33, explained to Mel Magazine Monday. “If you time it right, you could eat both lunch and dinner there every day.”

The theme park offers guests a “premium season dining pass” which allows visitors to enjoy lunch and dinner items, as well as a snack and unlimited drinks during every visit on any regular operating day, per Six Flags Magic Mountain’s website. The deal, which doesn’t include alcoholic beverages, is listed on the site at $109.99 plus tax.

YES! Good for him. That idea hit me while watching my family chow down on a flat rate dining pass at Six Flags. Glad to know someone went thru with it.

An hour away for me. Or I would’ve bought this deal for my family. Most of us would have to factor in the cost of gasoline. This guy lived near the park. But, kudos to him. Smart idea.

Back in my day, we would go to happy hour.
Buy a beer and eat bar food for free.
