If you’re looking for a deal on new or used equipment, this weekend offers two opportunities to score a good deal.

Santa Rosa Ski and Sport is holding their annual sale at the Veteran’s Building in Santa Rosa. Bargain shoppers are known to line up before dawn to be the first in the door and score a free lift ticket and get first dibs on new and used equipment at rock-bottom prices. Parents can avoid the long rental lines at the slopes this season by purchasing used ski and board packages for the kids. Employees are on hand to help get the correct fit.

San Francisco Ski & Snowboard Festival is a great place to get in the mood for the upcoming season. Over 100 resort and manufacturer  representatives show off the latest equipment and resort features. The equipment sale offers more that one million in inventory on the latest gear. Wine tasting is available on Saturday, and micro-brews will be on hand Sunday.
