How does it work, all these vendors bring frags in for purchase? Or is it an actual swap where you have to bring your own frags?

8

Both! The vendors will bring frags for purchase along with dry goods. Traders will be there as well, we will be on Fragswapper in a week or so.

“Bring your spouse for $5.00!” <— wise!

Wise for DVRC to do this.

Wise for reefers to bring their significant other so we stick to the limited budgeted cash we brought while they hold the credit cards!

12

Oh No that can’t happen she might find it hard to believe all my frags only cost $5.00 if she saw the prices >LOL<

13

She might find a frag to match her bag!

I actually find the opposite to be true. When the wife is with me, she starts ooing and ahhing over things and I will generally spend 2-3 times as much as I would if I had left her at home.

I think it has something to do with the extreme fear of what she will do to me in my sleep if I were to spend as much as I wanted to without her knowledge. With her being there she can’t complain because she had a say in the purchases.

Remember - you don’t need to bring frags to attend, all are welcome!

Wonder if they need some tank bred ornamental clownfish?

How much does it cost for a non-member and his girlfriend to get a table and electrical access? I’ve tried to make sense of the pricing strategy but I’m just lost.

18

It would be 25.00
20 for a table and 5 for gf
We tried to simplify the pricing but I was scratching my head with this one!

19

Thanks. I’ve got two more questions.

Any idea of what the head count is looking to be?

And I see that registration opens at 10:45 but is there any place to signup ahead of time?
