Who's going to the Rosehill Caravan and Camping Supershow?

[cyberhuey]

Im planning to go the weekend after this....

Hoping to score a 90-100 litre upright 12v compressor fridge (waeco/engel) to replace my RM2350 in the jayco ob penguin, can't remember of i saw anyone selling any there last year......

[Bunyip]

Undecided so far, not a whole heap of money to spend at the moment and $40 to get in.

May wait until the Penrith show, free parking close to the show, free entry etc.. But Rodehill is fun

$40?? I saw $20 per person on the website.

I went to the newcastle one a couple of months ago, that was $10 p/p to get in, but apart from picking up an aqua cube logic for reasonable price i was pretty disappointed with the show...

Im after an upright fridge i remember seeing engel at the rosehill show last year just cant remember if they were selling uprights there or just chest fridge/freezers, year before i picked up a Honda EU2.0i. Last year didnt buy anything...

There are two of us so $40. LB wouldn't let me go by myself, BigJules would probably talk me into a TrackAbout to go with my KK

i love the show, so big with so much to see. Why wouldnt you take your credit card? if you leave it at home you can't buy that spare of the minute camper.

Too right

I'll be there for most of the show, come down to the Trackabout stand, 109, and say g'day. You don't have to buy a camper.

Just put a deposit on one

[bussoboy]

lol.

We just bought a new Leisure Matters hard floor camper and have spent the last few weeks setting it up so fresh out of cash ..... (Note to self to leave c/c at home ....... Although maybe not haha

[Wuzgonna]

I'm planning to go if I'm allowed. Last year we went as a family, then I went back alone the next day and secretly purchased a new Aussie Swag as a surprise .....! It's amazing what you can convince yourself what else you need.......

[Daawl]

It is undecided as of yet, we are going to be in Sydney for it but not 100% sure about going. Besides last years show was expensive enough after buying a brand new (& our first) camper. We do need a  bigger fridge though ;-)

I'm going for the first time this year (either Sat or Sun). I'd like the better half to have a good look around the Jaycos and other van style campers so we can plan to replace the GIC.

Going to try and get there one weekday next week without the family.

[ScottH]

I'm taking Wednesday off work to go and look at the various walk-up tents to get ideas, and to talk to a couple of manufacturers about making one to suit my trailer. Will also be looking at kitchens for ideas, or perhaps talking myself into purchasing a Drifta setup.

Taking SWMBO along to get her input on tent colours and options, as well as assessing bench heights on the various kitchen options.

Luckily we are able to drop the kids off with the grandparents for the day so we get some peace and quiet.

[Bunyip]

perhaps talking myself into purchasing a Drifta setup.

I wouldn't think twice about it, we love our Drifta stand alone. We don't need it anymore so will go to the son and his mates who love camping as well.

Probably won't get down to the show this year, but normally don't buy anything ......the specials aren't really all that special !!
If you're looking for a bargain......check the prices before you go......usually a bit of ringing around will get you the same price as the "super" specials at the show....


Although about 6 or 7 yrs ago I was just about to leave and looked over the KK stand and bought one......impulse ??......yeh, but never looked back...

[BigJules]

What is great about this show is that just about everything is there. Even if you don't buy something, you can compare every camper, chair, fishing rod in the one spot.

[shutterabuse]

It's not always a good idea to go there to do your camping shopping. BigJules is right about the opportunity to compare everything in one place, but I have seen, for example, a small 12v fridge that was $20 in Dick Smith being sold for $60 at Rosehill.

Know what you want, do your research and haggle hard!

Thats why i carry an iPhone around, if it think i see a good price or think its a bargain i can always check my prices then and there internet on the phone (or your ipad) is a great thing to have in this day and age.....

Have to agree with Jules, its handy to see everything in the one day. Otherwise you'll spend more then $40 driving all over checking prices and comparing quality. I've been to so many now I'm un sure of how many, be it to buy now or research for a future purchase. I also take the Iphone with my notes update, SWMBO's shopping list....with a few items I sneak in. Last year I sat SWMBO in the chair I wanted, we walked out with 2 
Not sure if it will be this W/E or next at this stage for us...no purchases (just drooling) this time round as still trying to sell the kids to afford the big family holiday to Hawaii & LA.

The weather might be better next weekend. Could be dodgy tomorrow I hear.
