New Season Ticket Pack
« on: July 31, 2013, 10:06:53 AM »
My season ticket arrived in the post this morning. Very much cut-down pack compared to recent years - no pins/badges or seat sticker, no reduced programme/drinks/away travel vouchers etc, most of which I didn't use - but these have been replaced by a simple cash-builder scheme, starting with crediting your balance with 5% of your ST cost. So for me that's worth £26:50 to spend on club merchandise. And seeing as how I need a new Villa polo shirt that's a really good deal for me! Apparently have to re-register for AVTV for the year (for free again). So all in all I think that's a pretty good offering.

Sounds like a good idea especially for those with families attending.

I'll probably take the option to convert the balance into Food/Drink vouchers

This was one of the ideas suggested at the fans forum prior to the Southampton game. It was obvious that ST holders weren't using all of the vouchers in the previous scheme due to some being irrelevant too their needs when attending VP. Hopefully everyone will be able to exchange their 5% for something that they would actually like this time around!

This is a much better idea. I only bothered with the pie voucher before and binned the rest.

Ours arrived this morning.

I think the cash builder scheme is an excellent idea.

Mine arrived the other day. I wanted my Pie vouchers. I like to build up my fat reserves in the autumn against the winter cold.

Take the money.  Buy a pie outside the ground - much cheaper.

Mine arrived last Friday.
The cashbuilder thing seems a much better idea than the vouchers which I always forgot about and threw away in May!
Faulkner for President! ;-)
