i remember going to CHA when they held them in Vegas. it was the heydey of scrapbooking and there were so many big vendors that are no longer around today. there were demos in just about every booth and the new products were exciting. i used to go home with a suitcase full of giveaways from those events. i miss those days. I remember hearing about some retailers bringing entourages to CHA, not only staff but favourite customers as well. Didn't the show have to start limiting guests or something because of this? I used to dream of going. I still would love it, to be honest. I never heard about customers going with store owners but I'm sure it could happen. I used to go with a"professional crafter" badge and believe me, I would use the "professional" part very very loosely. Lol I still went after CHA combined with the rest of the hobby industry. Many companies had gone out of business so there weren't as many SB exhibitors. I guess it made sense to be part of the other hobbies convention. It wasn't as fun as when it was just a giant scrapbook convention so I stopped going after that. |
