It is becoming a blur - and speeding by so fast. Monday, day 9 of the Gem Mall show. We survived the weekend with its hordes of local Tucson shoppers. Our booth was crowded and sales were brisk. Almost sold out of several different styles of product. Didn't bring enough.
Met last night with members of the Bead Collectors Network for dinner. Some are getting ready for leaving to go home.
Vendors from other shows are starting to come by the booth as their shows are over. Best Bead Show closed Sunday, as did To Be True Blue and Tucson Bead Show. Hopefully they will stop by to see us, tell us about their show experience, and if they made money buy some beads to restock.
We are now into the last 5 days of the show, and usually sales start to slow down. Most bead stores have come and gone. But with the weather that the East Coast and Mid West have been experiencing and with canceled or rescheduled flights many customers are still arriving. So it ain't over til its over!
We have been noticing that many large foreign booths are still heavily overstocked due to slow sales, so maybe the best deals are still to come as vendors lower prices to attract customers. J-Me is scared to leave the booth. (she might be tempted to spend money)
