If you've been dreaming of a white Christmas for as long as you can remember, but instead you've been stuck with sun, sun, glorious sun since way back when, take advantage of today's GrabOne deal, and if you squint it might almost seem like you're actually in Europe for the festive season.
Today GrabOne and Snowplanet combine their snow-loving forces by bringing you a ridiculously cheap day of fun and excitement for just $37. Your well-earned cash will get you a full day pass to Snowplanet, rentals for whatever side of the skiing versus snowboarding argument you support and a glass of house wine or beer to the value of $7.50 to keep your insides toasty. That's right, for less than 40 bucks you've got a whole day's entertainment in the cold stuff.
Snowplanet is New Zealand's one and only all-year indoor snow resort where snow enthusiasts can experience the thrill of snow sports and the atmosphere of a snow village only 20 minutes north of Auckland. Snowplanet's giant snowdome features 50 centimetres of real powder snow all year round, three lifts to rest those weary legs, a terrain park for the freestyle skiers and snowboarders and a separate learner slope for beginners. If you ask Snowplanet what their life-long mission is in less than 10 words, they'll reply "sharing awesome snow experiences 365 days a year." Enough said.
Whether you're an absolute beginner or you'd live in an igloo if you could, the range of services at Snowplanet will suit you down to a ski, ahem, I mean tee. If you're into the freestyle scene, check out Snowplanet's terrain park, featuring rainbows, slide bars and jumps available all year round.
All that hard yakka out on the slopes will inevitably result in hunger pangs from 'Nam, so head on into the Snowplanet Restaurant and Bar which offers a winter wonderland atmosphere not so far away from the snow action. Featuring huge panoramic windows that showcase the slopes, the restaurant really feels like an alpine resort high up in the mountains. The restaurant features good hearty food that will keep your belly warm and toasty, and the bar provides a relaxed environment to share the experience with friends, colleagues or family.
Today's deal will get you onto the snow for the whole day, get a pair of skis or a snowboard strapped to your feet (along with all the essential accessories like, for example, your pole and boots) and a glass of house wine or beer to the value of $7.50. If you'd rather a steaming hot beverage instead of your alcoholic one, you're more than welcome to swap. Click on the big green BUY button now, enjoy the heat of summer, then escape the mugginess and pop into Snowplanet for a real cooling off from the elements outside. Snowplanet is open 365 days of the year, 10am-10pm.
