I have a pretty sweet hello kitty shirt... How does $20 sound? :D

^lolololol

Let me rephrase the question,

Also, if anyone is going there and willing to buy me a BP.Net shirt, I'll gladly pay them back and some more :)

I'm definitely going only concern I have is how much I'm going to spend lol

Yay, another person is going! The more the merrier!

If you want a BP.net shirt, just pm Judy (JLC) and get one direct from her. That's how I got mine. :gj:

But if that doesn't work out for you, I happen to have acquired, and to this day I still don't know HOW I acquired it, a Sponge Bob Square Pants shirt you can just HAVE........

Can't buy things online sadly, parent's don't buy anything online. And they wouldn't let me spend my own money on something such as this. :/

SPONGEBOB!

Such as...a shirt?? last time I checked clothing is something you should invest in. Lol!

My parents set me up with a prepaid visa card when I was... 14 years old? I've been buying online since 2004! Tell your rents to get out of the stone age! The age of the internet shopper is here! and has been for quite some time. :P

Tried to when I was a bit younger, got slapped and told to focus on school haha. My dad's very uptight about spending, and we'll only buy clothes that are on sale. It's not like we're poor, but, he tries his best to save as much money as possible. And I just got some new clothes for a cruise I'm going on in a couple of weeks.

Well as long as they are keeping you clothed! My dad is similar when it comes to money. He often tells me I waste money on my animals, but I don't really care... They are my babies!

I don't mean to bump up an old thread, but, does anyone know if you have to pay for parking, or how much parking is available? One of my friends is driving there and she just wants to know.

A vast sea of free parking :)

Thanks for the reply!

So, is anyone finalized to go? I'd love to meet up, like I said before.:)

Yes and the great thing is I live in Tinley Park !!!!

- - - Updated - - -

Parking is Free.......

Sweet! I live not too far also!

Anyone else?

I will totally be there!!! I am soooo excited..... :D

Do any of you want to meet up saturday or sunday for lunch?

YES!! I'd really like to meet some of you! ;)

We can exchange phone numbers when it gets a little closer to the show. we can just meet in the front lobby whenever we'd like to do so.

I'm fine with that! Although, I'm bringing someone else there, would that be okay?

The more the merrier! I don't discriminate against those who are not religious BP.net users :P

Sounds like a plan to me!! :gj:


Also, has anyone ever gotten the VIP tickets?? These tickets allow you to go in at 2pm during vendor setup on Friday, at 7:30am Saturday morning, and an hour early on Sunday too. Do you feel it would be worth it???

I am looking for a couple of specific things, so I thought I'd do it. ;)

Evenstar: saw you mentioned the Taylor Mi show in a earlier post I usually go every month for a few supplies. Used to vend there, but working Saturdays now so kinda hard. Hit me up next time you plan on going maybe we can meet up.

Now back on topic...can't make the show too many animals to take care of.

We will definitely be going to Tinley Park NARBC expo. It is a really awesome event. Lots of big names and tons of variety to look at. My only problem is that I find way to many new Ball Python morphs to buy and not enough money! Also, Chicago Reptile House is fairly close to the show. They are very nice people to deal with!

So does anyone like sushi? :D

Haven't had sushi before, and Chipotle is pretty good. Taco Bell is even better, even though it isn't real Mexican food haha.

Haha I know! My coworker hates chipotle but loves taco bell. I, on the other hand, hate taco bell and love Chipotle!



Do you guys want to have lunch on both days? I know some are only able to attend on one day or the other. Don't want to exclude anyone!

I'd love to get together with you guys. Hubby and I are driving up on Sat morning and staying the night then going home Sunday. We always love to meet fellow herpers!

Perhaps we can all sit at a table together at the auction?

That would be awesome! Maybe some adult drinks? haha :D yum yum!

I plan to be there all day Sunday all by my lonesome so I'll be tagging along with Steffe and other random people as the day goes by!

I'm not as outgoing in person as I am here though. Bit of social anxiety until I get to know you. I tend to space out and wander off a lot lol!

Oh my...well I'm that annoying bubbly person that either brings people out of their shells or totally overwhelms them. Haha!

But seriously people...are we getting together to form a roving mass of BP-netters?

Is everyone cool with meetup up at noon on both days? We can meet in the lobby. I'll wear something obvious so people can find me but I'd also like to get everyones phone number so we have some communication.

Anyone who would like to meet up, please sent me a PM with your number and I will send you one back with mine :) Also, first names would be good. You guys don't have to call me "kaorte" in person haha!

NARBC is getting close!!!

Guys. I am so pumped. You have no idea. Anyone else want to exchange contact info so we can find each other?

Pm me your number (if you'd like) so we can find each other at the show. You can walk around with me and a few other people. We will find you some cool snakes to handle! :gj:

Steffe, I'll just meet you in the lobby at noon. Unless you want to see and handle Cleo. Then you'll have to be there at 11 or so!
