However, are you looking to save some additional money on registration for the Santa Hustle? We found a way!

Visit the special Groupon Cedar Point Santa Hustle promotion (affiliate link).

Groupon is currently offering the Cedar Point Santa Hustle for the following prices.

Santa Hustle 5K Registration Package for One- $35
Santa Hustle Half-Marathon Registration Package for One- $55
Santa Hustle Kid’s Rudolph Run Registration Package for One- $8

What we do not like about this promotion is that they are comparing the prices (= discount) to the race day prices. In other words, when you compare what you can purchase the tickets for currently directly from the vendor, they are similar to the Groupon price. The promotion is a bit deceiving. However, the Groupon offer is a better deal, and here is why.

If you purchase your Santa Hustle tickets directly from the company, you pay a fee in addition to the registration. You do not pay this fee when buying through Groupon. So you save $3.46-5.46/transaction.

The good thing is you can also save some money using the Groupon coupon codes that come up. For example, using promo code Happy20, which expires tonight, saves the guest 20%.

Using the promo code, the price breakdown is as follows.

Santa Hustle 5K Registration Package for One- $35 28
Santa Hustle Half-Marathon Registration Package for One- $55 44
Santa Hustle Kid’s Rudolph Run Registration Package for One- $8 6.40

Now we are saving some money on the Cedar Point Santa Hustle.
