It seems Greyhound is operating a bus between Vancouver and Whistler, for 30 dollars max one way. The web fare is $20 and if you book at least 3 weeks in advance, it can be as low as $15 .
Best solution: Greyhound Bus for $40 return.
I’ve spent about 2 hours researching this and bus is definitely your cheapest option. Rail, Plane and Car rental are going to be more expensive.
Looks tough to get any kind of public transport outside of the ski season. Most buses don’t seem to be running.
EDIT: In my original answer I didn’t have Greyhound because their website was not showing any buses travelling in the next couple of months. It seems this was a bug rather than a lack of services running. So this is now your cheapest option. Thanks to @vince for posting his answer I had another look.
Greyhound, $40 return.
Only other bus found:
Pacific Coach: $88 return:
If you’re lucky, you’ll find a ride through a ride-sharing service like zimride, which would probably halve the cost, this ride for example is $20 one way:
