    X2 with above good way to clear old stock, you still get a good price
    You need to know your prices though.

    No real deals, like Alitis says bloody retail pricing what a joke. Go so cut at the bulls..t, I walked out buying nothing. And if there was a saving you get 20 bucks off a$1k woohoo GET F.......what a joke and disappointing for me anyway.
    Even the fishing pavilion had almost the same thing with prices.

    The real bargins i found were the tigerz11 winches synthetic 12000lb $450 thought that was a good price and i managed to get a quote on a ironman large recovery kit and rescue and salvage kit for $550 saving of $130 but thought it can wait lol but like i said before found these 7" hid spot lights for $240 a pair but they only had wide spread and i wanted 2 pencil. But the good thing is there gona honor the price when they get them in which is a good thing i guess.

    have to agree with the above was looking at some floor mates and was told they were a bargin price
    said to the woman that they were cheaper in aldis
    then was looking at high lift jack mounts for $90 the sales man tried but i said i cant justify that sort of money for them
    when the jacks were $75 or so was a good day out
    our vests stood out well the bloke at terrian tamer didnt want to talk YOUR A NISSAN MAN, THE BLOKE WITH THE JACKS LOL WHAT SORT OF RIG YOU DRIVE THEN BLUSHES STUPID QUESTION HE SAYS AFTER LOOKING AT US
    but didnt see any one there that was a bit dissapointing maybe another time

    I remember the misses had to go to the toilet in the main 4x4 inside area. I was just day dreaming and stood at a stand looking at some photos of 4wd's on their wall.

    A bloke come up and said can I help you, still in a daze I just said no mate just waiting for the misses and browsing.

    I looked up at the stand that I had been in for the last 2 minutes and it was the Toyota 4wd club of Victoria...LMAO!!!!!

    With out a word of a lie my next reaction was to look around to make sure no one saw me...I just pictured someone off the forum saying arrrrr AB what are you doing mate????

    You saw me on th way home doesn't that count? Haha would have liked to have a bit of a yarn with ya but we were in a rush to get to Warragul.
    As far as the show goes I was disappointed. Too many people for my liking! Wandin was a much better event in my opinion. I got two recovery hooks and bolted them to my bullbar but that was it.

    Picked up 6 20l Jerrys for the Darwin trip I'm going on next month. 70 down to 49 a piece. Not bad including spouts that are worth 25 on their own. Also got a high lift and my boss got a fridge. Way to many people and the sales reps just agreed with what i was saying. I coulda said anything and they would have agreed....
