Don't forget the big draw on Sunday. It's like 3 hours of drawing raffle tickets.

I don't bother with the raffle anymore - there are a lot of people there that blow a thousand bucks on raffle tickets so it's tough to win anything.

I'd rather run around on Sunday and get super sweet deals while the vendors are packing up - in Florida my most memorable purchase was 25 polyps Rastas for $20.

This is good advice, we typically sell off all our demo stock thats been on the stand at cost price as its better than lugging it back!

By "Sunday", I meant "Monday".

I'd suggest you go by yourself. It's not really a family trip if you actually want to spend time on the floor. The wife and kids will get bored HOURS before you do. There is SO much for a reefer to see.

I'm kinda considering going this year...hmm...
