Baby expo outing?
So the baby expo is August 8-10 - Friday to Sunday. I was thinking of going next Friday, that's the best day for me. Does anyone want to make an outing of it? Keep each other company??
Can we prebook tickets anywhere, does anyone know? That might be easier than getting tickets on the day!!

It's at the Wan Chai exhibition centre - right on the harbour in Wan Chai.

hkrose, everything to do with babies, you will find at the Baby Expo. There's usually a big sale of grobags at their stall, Eugene group are also there and so much more!
I've worked at the Baby expo before and I would recommend leaving BB at home if you plan on going at the weekend as it is usually very busy and packed, packed, packed!

Last year, the busiest day was actually Friday as a lot of freebies are given out during the expo, and by Sunday, the freebies are already all gone. Saturday was the quietest.
I don't think you can prebook tickets, but do be careful, as last year, the queue on Friday actually took 2 hours to just get the tickets and a few pregnant women fainted (it was even on the news!). Not sure if they have done anything to improve anything.
When you get the ticket, you also get a coupons book with all the freebies, but then, you need to fill in every single page with you details. A lot of people actually print labels and just stick it on. Some groups of mothers split up and each go to different booths to collect the gifts for the others and then gather again to split the gifts.
Hope that helps

What's needed on the labels? Name, address, what else? I'll have to get some labels...
I wanna get freebies!! Love freebies!!
I'm busy on Saturday and Sunday so Friday is my only option...
Is it better to go earlier or later in the day, if we're going on Friday?
