The croc tent !!
« 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.

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

I will see what my negotiating skills can do.

If they discounted every time a "tour" came through theyd sell 80% of their wares at discount rates. :D
