tomorrow being saturday and with a slight chance of rain your wait time should be cut into half. make sure there aren't any special events happening tomorrow (check the wonderland site)
as for that price, its pretty decent, i think the cheapest out there is like $31 but not sure how to get a hold of those bad boys.
yes you can go on almost every ride, except a few. i.e. the bungee cord, go karts (not sure of any others).
THE BAT/TOP GUN are my favs. none of the other new rides have every come close :P

It's july and Wonderland is the top seasonal park in the world. It can be very busy in the summer.
There's a good chance you should expect mininum 30 minute waits for everything unless the weather is bad. I wouldn't be surprised to expect more like hour waits.
All rides will be included with the exception of Extreme Skyfler which is an extra price if you want to do it.
I'd suggest paying for Skyfler. It's the only ride at the park which can actually scare me. The rest of the park really is somewhat boring to me.

Is the skyflyer the one where you're harnessed, and on a bungie cord, and let go horizontally?

Park hours tomorow are 10am to 10pm.
To be honest crowds are always crap shoots. Sometimes it'll be good, and sometimes it'll be brutal busy. It's hard to predict.
Depends on your pockets. If you have fairly loose open pockets then there's a chance of losing stuff. I always wear pants/shorts with cargo pockets that can be snapped shut. That way I know my stuff isn't going anywhere.

Correct. It also happens to be one of the most terrifying rides that exist. That's why I love it. 
That ride scares me more then any roller coaster ever has. And I've been on most of the worlds tallest and fastest coasters.

How far away do you live?
You don't have to get there super early. Though if you're only going for one day being there for open is a good idea.
It's also a good idea to try and go early and go straight for the most popular rides. Italian Job would be a good place to start, as it's line will probably be the longest throughout the day.

I can agree with that. Rollercoasters don't scare me but when I was hoisted up in the Skyflyer I was shaking like a leaf.

Make sure to go on Vortex. Hands down the best roller coaster there IMHO.

My guide to wonderland fun!
1. GET THERE EARLY!!!! if u aren't there right when the gates open, don't bother (IMO). The lines are disgusting right after lunchtime. If you get there early you can get on one or two rides without any significant line, and the other rides will have small lines!
2. Bring your own food/ go over to the nearby mall and eat @ their food court. Food inside wonderland is atrociously expensive. If you're gunna do this, make sure not to wash the handstamp u will get off, or else u will not be allowed re-entry!
3. Bring your own drinks! You wanna pay 3.25 for a bottle of coke? I didnt think so 
4. The go-karts there are fun, but its $6 or $7 a pop. If you have time/money, and there is no line, and you're there with a bunch of friends, a good time is sure to ensue (try a little bumping 
)
5. My fave rides (in no order) are: Top gun, vortex, the bat, dragonfire (or dragon flyer.. cant remember), mind buster + sledgehammer. Tomb raider is a cool experience too. Almost like flying, but not really.
6. Have fun!
