Busch Gardens and SeaWorld are running a flash sale that can save you $40 or more for single-day or annual tickets, but the sale ends Sunday.

Busch Gardens is selling single-day tickets for $45, but they must be used by July 1. For $59, a Fun Card gives you unlimited admission through the calendar year. That pass does not include parking or admission to separate-ticket events like Howl-O-Scream.

At SeaWorld, the sales prices are even steeper, cutting one-day tickets to $45 and $10 more to add a second day at Aquatica water park. And for $56 you can get a 12-month annual pass to SeaWorld, which includes free parking and no block-out dates.

Advance purchase is required at buschgardens.com and seaworld.com.
