Big Gay Halloween is just 5 credits, so a $20 Ticketful membership gives you enough credits to book Big Gay Halloween and still have 5 credits left to use toward another event or bringing a friend. Your unused Ticketful credits don’t expire, so you can save them until you see something else you want to attend.
