Anyone Been to the Baby Show

Hi Guys,

My wife and I want to go the baby show next month, what day is the best day to go?

Someone have said to go on Sunday more chance of bargains but does that mean there could be a chance we might miss out on certain things if they sell out.

Also parking its £26.50 for pre advance or £20 on the day;

If anyone has been before who can advise on this or other helpful things at the baby show it would very helpful

Thanks
Guys

    I went on Sunday (at Excel) and bought a Bugaboo Bee buggy ex-display at 25% off :). Prices seemed to be just a few pounds lower than the cheapest online deals. I paid for it mid-morning and had to wait until 3pm or so to take it home. I was glad I brought a packed lunch and snacks as there was only one tiny cafe last year.

    There is one in Olympia in October, a friend of ours picked up a buggy which was £890 at Mothercare for £650 at the show so were hoping to grab some bargains.
