<p>[QUOTE=&quot;joesmom, post: 45769, member: 934&quot;]Luckily we have some shows in the area, if I searched I could probably find one to go to once or twice a month.&nbsp; There is also a moderate sized one that is held every 3 months...then the larger TNA show once a year.&nbsp; Joe &amp; I hit almost all of them...soccer schedule permitting&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp;&nbsp; The one that is held every 3 months is very close to home so I try to pop in on Friday to give everything a quick once over while Joe is in school, then Joe &amp; I go back on Saturday and easily spend 3 or 4 hours...I&#039;m usually ready to go long before he is&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> .&nbsp; We rarely if ever go on a Sunday for 3 reasons...everything is picked over, most of the dealers have gone home, AND we can&#039;t miss the Nascar race!&nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s especially nice now that we&#039;ve become <i>regulars</i>.&nbsp; The main dealers all know us by name and usually have something stashed behind the table for Joe or something that they think I might be interested it, knowing my collecting habits.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Since the only decent shop is a bit of a jaunt away for me, I tend to keep a running &#039;shopping list&#039; between shows.&nbsp; Probably the most fun is doing the tally of our purchases on the way home.&nbsp; Joe &amp; I compare, he usually comes home with MORE coins, while I&#039;ve spent more&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ...SSoooo not fair!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The next one on our calendar is in a week &amp; a half...hmmm, my birthday weeked, gonna have to pick out something REAL nice for myself&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
