Title: The croc tent !!
Post by: McGirr on May 30, 2012, 10:51:02 AM

I have contacted Dale and Lea at the croc tent, for those who do not know its a place that sells all tourist gear on the way to the tip. We normally stop there so people can buy some shirts , cups , stickers etc.

They advised they cannot gives us a certain discount but will look after us as much as they can regarding the price.

I told them we will have approx 60 people there.

Wow , thats odd . If you phoned me and said you were bringing 60 people to my business I think I would be putting out a bit more than that .

They have monopoly as there is no business like theirs around.

I will see what my negotiating skills can do.
