To what extreme are you willing to give up things to cut show costs? There are people sleeping in their cars and in their EZ Ups at this show. I am sorry but it is hot and I want that shower and restroom..... I can not imagine going three days without a shower in 100 + temps. Especially out there sweating while you sit up your display. What are things you do to save on show expenses? If we do a out of town show we usually park at a place that does not charge for the trailer to be there, which saves. I also usually take the food and not buy food or drinks at the shows, which also helps.

By the way....... if any of you do sleep in your cars or EZ Ups I am not in any way talking about you (or even the ones here) doing it.. I am just trying to see what money saving things you do.

Bring my own food, try to sell in a space with RV hook ups, or camping nearby/ o the grounds. Regarding sleeping in your vehicle throughout the show. Though it can cost between 8 to 10 dollars, you can get a shower at a local truck stop. (Flying J, Pilot, ETC.) which helps. If you check a boondockers web site, they have all sorts of hints to "LIVE" full time on the road, which I have taken notes. My favorite one is to take a shower with a pressurized weed sprayer. You use less than 2 gallons of water and get the show dirt off you. Thankfully I haven't had to go to thee extremes, but hard times call for unique solutions.
