Default What kind of freebies will be Hybridfest 08?

This will be my first time going to Hybridfest and I am just wondering if the vendors that are there have little freebies and discounted products available during the fest??

When I go to dog shows and pet expos I always come home with several bags of freebies and pretty good discounted items.

Can I expect to see this kind of stuff at Hybridfest as well??

There are still things I am looking for to spiff up my Prius, cute little things like the antenna ornaments and little stuff for the inside of the cars, maybe some cool Prius stickers and magnets, discounted cleaning supplies, etc..

OK, I'm bumping this up, Can anyone that went to Hybridfest last year answer this??, Do they have any freebies and discounted items from the vendors? What kind of vendors are usually at something like this, I have never really been to anything like this except the Auto show in Chicago and my Pet expos.

Thanks,

You might want to fix the title of your post. "Why kind of freebies..." is confusing, so you won't get many replies.

Good question. I would have thought that the edit button would do it, but apparently not. I'll see what I can find.

Yes, If you can find out that would be great, I even went to advanced editing and it lets you edit the title, but it only edits the title in the post and not in the main thread. So bizarre, I have been on other message boards where advanced editing allows you to actually correct the main thread title. This site does not let you do that.

Many of the booths have small give away items and the ScanGauge is usually discounted a bit (or at least it was last year)

The best thing that you can pick up and take away is knowledge and there will be plenty of that going around! Not to mention the camraderie of the other hybrid owners

I'll bring my new torque wrench and check your wheel torque for free.

Uhhh. There is a small fee. 150 Federation Credits, or equivalent in quatloos or gold-press latinum. Or your vote for People's Choice.

Gas, grass, or as---oops, sorry. Wrong era.
