OC,
I agree. They really never offer bargains at Rallies. I guess that they feel that they have a captive audience and they have the product on hand for immediate delivery, which makes up for the 'non-bargain' prices.

I'm certainly not down on the vendors, in fact I appreciated having what few they had there. I bought some stuff, but you can get the same thing on eBay or Amazon for less and have it delivered to your door. It does expose you to items you, or at least me, didn't know was available. I bought the Blue Streak which was a "new to me" item for the commode which I really like.

Besides the mattress the blue streak was all I bought as well.
With that being said the mattress was already a planned purchase
Before the rally.

I hear ya OC. I'm all for free capitalisim!

And as always, the market drives the price.

If we were going, I've no doubt we'd spend, and spend, and spend.

We'd probably go home with one of those Trump mattresses.

I am thinking of one of these as well OC - do you still use your special "OC Formula" in the Blue Streak?
