I don't get how it can be cheaper ! You pay the ferry to get to PEI and you pay the Confederation bridge on your way back !
From my original post: Since one doesn't pay to enter PEI, it is cheaper that way.
To expand on that and spud1957's response, It doesn't matter whether one goes in on the bridge or on the ferry, one does not pay a fee. When one leaves, one pays for the round trip.

For us, motorhome and toad, the ferry would cost $125, the bridge would cost $63.
