    I went to the show for the last two years, have to agree last year wasn't as good, I think it is still a good show for the first timer, mainly because the stalls were almost the same for the last two years. I don't think I will be going this time.

    The goodie bag is quite good, lots of samples ( i remember that includes a bag of 30 dishwasher tablets) I had two goodie bag one for me and one for my toddler. (a bit cheeky :p) But most importantly the goodie bag counter is quite hidden. I just chanced upon it while waiting for my friends. It was (for the last two years) 50m down from the exit and there was no signs!!! So make sure you look around before leaving, and they don't ask for your tickets so technically you could just go and get a free goodie bag, but that would be wrong!!! ;)

    i might be a bit thick but not sure why you guys are buying a mag for £3.30 first
    i got 4 adults and 4 kids tickets free from link on freebies board on this site last night, sorry not checked it today but worth having a look, there were only tickets for week days left last night all weekend ones had gone

    i have never been and not sure whether to use tickets with comments posted above

    have heard they give lots of freebies away, anyone know if this is true and whether worth the cost of deisel for 2 hr trip in the car?

    Definitely not. The goody bags are OK, and the stuff in them is probably worth £3-£5. You might be able to get a couple, but you're unlikely to cover the cost of the diesel.

    Let alone the time you'll waste!
