I was just looking for some info and insight on the scooby doo bucks, when they stoped ECT??

Thanks josh

You can still buy them.

no i thought they switched over to dora bucks? they may still have some old scooby ones around though...

Dora Dollars where gone last year. The backs of Dora Dollars said "Paramount Parks"

They used the Scooby Bucks last year. Dora Dollars was discontinued after the 2007 season.

Ok, I found some 1989 Scooby-Doo bucks that I for got I had,I new that Dora Bucks were used by "Paramount Parks" . And thought that with Snoopy on the way, that Scooby-bucks would be gone.

Thanks

Almost all the Scooby bucks were printed in 1989

I won't be surprised at all if you can't buy them next season.

OK,, did not know that about being printed in 1989.

So were they printed then and just reused or they just neved changed the date??

Thanks for the info..

Where they like gift cards?

No, paper "Money" with a 1$ value..

Although theoretically the Scooby Bucks were designed to circulate, the park knew full well that many, many would be kept as souvenirs and never spent, thus being virtually pure profit. And so it was, though I doubt they ever sold in the numbers the park first had hoped. Dollywood used to highly promote and sell Dolly dollars, but got in a lot of trouble in the early days by loading its ATMs with them, but not notifying the public that the ATMs dispensed only Dolly dollars that could only be spent in the park. That very quickly ended. And nowadays, Dolly Dollars don't seem to be promoted as much as they once were.

I have yet to see a dora dollar. Scooby bucks however are a common occurence. Also wouldn't it be cool to have a gallery that shows some of the better souveigners such as the different scooby bucks, vintage shirts, etc

Yes, that would be cool with pics, and a time line.

I saw some Scooby bucks in a cashier's drawer yesterday. I didn't know they were still in use until I saw that. I know they still had Scooby bucks (hadn't gone to Dora bucks yet) when I worked in merch in 02 and 03.

OK ,can we flip the coin and ask when did the Scooby-Doo buck firts show up at KI?

I don`t know when the Scooby Bucks first showed up. Needless to say, they were around long before I was into Kings Island, considering in 1989 I was only four. But they are virtually the only traces of the original Kings Island logo from its first season that can still be found. (This logo was actually the second used by KI as there was an earlier version that appeared in promotional material advertising Kings Island prior to its opening.) For years, the floral calendar next to the Eiffel Tower used to have the original Kings Island logo in it. But that disappeared several years back.

With all the years I have been to ki I have never used them!

I know at Kings Dominion they actually have a purpose to buy. You get a deal such as 6 scooby bucks for $5.00

An interesting note about the floral calendar. This year, they no longer have the year demarcated in it. Just the month and the day. I wish they still had the year in it, as it was a great photo op (it still is) that could spell out the year directly in the photograph.

On Sunday, I found a Scooby Buck in a Beast train, so some people still have them around.

Dollywood has a similar system in their, "Dolly Dollars". You can only use them in the park and they are just what they say, worth one dollar. They actually gave us some back in change when we bought our tickets.
