A few thoughts on the Futon Expo

After I got home from the Expo, I had a few thoughts on some of the little details that I saw at the show. One of those details is the constant supply of sugar the exhibitors ply on the buyers. Every show room had an almost identical bowl of sugary treats, which in my opinion was a bit suspicious. It almost seems to me that the Las Vegas World Market Center might have provided these goodies in order to keep the buyers on the move. A little burst of energy every twenty minutes goes a long way, especially when you have twenty six floors and two pavilions to see.
A few things that I wasn't suspicious of were the amenities within the individual show rooms. Almost every vendor had a wide selection of beverages (soda, coffee, beer, and cocktails) and several food choices (sandwiches and salad mostly). I found this practice interesting, if a bit shady. Now a buyer didn't even have to stop for food, they could just eat on the go and keep browsing.
Even with my few critiques, I still had a productive time and found some great new items.
