    Ski Swap/Tent Sales, 2010/2011 Edition

    It's that time of year again! Cheap deals on last years ubah gear! Or, as others would describe it, the only possible way to keep 3 growing kids on the snow. The intent of this thread is to track ski swaps and tent sales which may be of interested. Please note, by 'tent sale' we're not talking about a '10% off' sale. On the other hand, significant sales may be considered.

    If you know of any additional swaps/sales, or have any clarifications on any listed below, feel free to respond and I will keep this post up to date.

    I've moved the swaps which have passed by the to bottom of the list, so it's easier to see which swaps are coming up.

    The following locations deserve special thanks for providing some of the information below:

    Is the Southington swap any good? For the 2nd year in a row I will be out of state for the Sundown swap and need to pick up some kids stuff? (Also need to see Skidmarks for the wife's new boots--- I told her her last pair were too big when she bought them and she said Nooooooooo, one season in and she is "swimming" in them......hoping a pro (an. more importantly, non-spouse) can convince her of the need to go small...)

    no idea quality @ mt southington, this will be first time there. I think o3jeff sold some stuff there last year. i figure i'll invest an afternoon with the kids on a little road trip there and play-it-again.
