cleanglow Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 I was wondering what is the best yet most reasonable tent. I don't want junk, but I don't want to spend 500.00 either. Also, where is a good place to buy bags for shows?Thanks!Jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dahaak Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 We got a nice ez up fom Sam's club for about $150 a few years back. I tcame th three sides. It is 10' x 10' and nice height.Bags - uline.com, papermart.com, associatedbag.com to name a few Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgia Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 I got 1000 "thank you" T-shirt bags from Sams Club. They will last me forever!As for the tent, it depends on how many shows you are doing. I usually only do 1 or 2 outdoor shows a year. I got my First Up from Walmart for $100, the sides were $35. I did spray it with Scotchguard waterproofing.If you are going to be doing several shows, I recommend the EZup. It's a big more expensive, but more durable.

EmpressC Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 I have the First Up from Walmart and have seen LOTS of them at the few shows I've done thus far. The only thing I don't like about it is that it takes 2 people to put it up, so I can never do an outside show by myself. But other than that, it is great and it only cost $87. As for bags, I get mine at Papermart. I have the rope handle bags, and people really seem to appreciate them. They provide a more upscale look and I can't tell you how many people were pleasantly surprised to see them when I packed up their stuff. A little extra goes a long way.

cleanglow Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 Thanks for the replies and info. It has helped me out tremendously already!I'm going to check out paper mart and some of the other packaging sites, too. As much as I'd love to buy the plastic bags, having "Lighten Up Naturally" on my candle would be, umm, odd I guess. I'm sure you all understand what I mean. I don't claim to be "100% Natural" when it comes to my candles, but in my other world (life outside of candles), lol, I try to stay as "green" as I can. Does that make ANY sense? Could be the wine talking/typing. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k&g Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Just bought my tent on Wednesday from Sam's ... $149.95 - with 4 zippered sides! Have also bought the T-Shirt bags from there as back-ups ... buy most bags from Papermart or Nashville Wraps (trying to avoid them right now - really great looking holiday bags!!)
