--Aaron-- Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Well, I suppose I'll see it first hand come meet time. Does whoever organizes this meet have to pay for this to be held, just out of curiousity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilled man Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Well, I suppose I'll see it first hand come meet time. Does whoever organizes this meet have to pay for this to be held, just out of curiousity?Nope its a free parking lot what would there to be to pay for ?We do it as a courtisy to call ahead and make sure we can park there. Since we could all show up and hang out not much they can do if we dont do anything but sit there Espcially if you buy something there kinda SOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

--Aaron-- Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Agreed, although it would be interesting to see the parking lot turn into a europarts store/pick n pay. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SL8Brick Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Ikea allows us to gather there because its a "no cost promotion" for them. They use Volvos in their advertising so why not have them in their lot? When I originally proposed the idea to them, I mentioned how having a bunch of Volvos on their lot might help promote their Swedish pride. They liked it, so here we are.And yes, one of the stipulations is that we're not allowed to sell anything there. It might sound silly but I must enforce it if we want to continue these meets.

And I have no problem what so ever not being permitted to sell/buy things on their property when the rules are against doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
