How annoyed should I be right now?

GF and I planned a ski trip back in November, we leave tomorrow, come back Tues.
Originally we were looking at Colorado. We live in MN and can use the Epic pass at a resort here, so the idea was to get our money's worth at one of the big mountains, plus have the pass to ski whenever we want here.
Long story short, GF's friend and husband live in Oregon and work at a ski resort. Said we should come there instead and they can get us free lift passes.
Kinda went against our epic pass strategy but I thought what the hell, we get to ski some place new for cheaper and my GF gets to see her friend.
Tonight her friend texts us a picture of the lift passes and it's only for M-F. We were planning to ski Sat and Sun
. We sent her our dates several months ago and are just learning this TONIGHT.
This is my first time meeting these friends of hers and I feel like it's gonna be really hard for me to not be annoyed around them considering this oversight. Not that I expect free shite from them, but we literally changed our entire winter season plans because of this.

That's on you for not asking and confirming.
If it seems too good to be true...

What are you like, 8 years old?

Pay for your own lift tickets. Be gracious. Don't say a word. Keep the peace.
There's zero upside to any other avenue.

You should definitely show up and be a dick to a couple that tried to do something really nice for you. It's an alpha move and your girlfriend will definitely appreciate the assertiveness

Yep. Say thanks with a smile on your face. Buy the tickets. Use the hell out of the pass at home.
Nothing else adds anything productive to your life.

Is this what they call “white people problems!”

They’re going to have a threesome with your GF

That's the type of shite that happens to me. I've gotten to the point where nobody changes my damn plans. Nobody.

I bet you're just a joy to travel with.

Get over it and don’t let it ruin the vacation.
If you start bitching, then the whole trip will basically be the 3 of them vs you. Much easier to just let it go and then joke about it when you get back home.

I'm too OT poor to know anything about ski passes, but couldn't you ski Friday and Monday for free with these and just pay for your weekend? Or is that not how it works?

Stew on it for the first couple of days and then invite your mother on the trip and not tell your GF. Classic white Lotus season 1.

They work at a ski hill...I remember how much pot I smoked during my seasonal work days. Honest mistake. Lessons learned, buy the pass.

No, we planned the rest of our trip around skiing those 2 days.
