Oh Dear Betty Ann !!! You know I love you dearly, but one can hardly equate the vendor area of IOLI with Walmart!!! If that were true, we'd be getting our supplies there. (Come to think of it, I'd probably not be making lace at all, because I'd rather be drawn and quartered than have to deal with the crowds and the waits and the parking problems at Walmart...) And I'll be that IOLI doesn't hire illegal aliens!! (small attempt at humor...)
But I understand your frustration, and think that if everything else about this convention was up to your standards, the addition of a fee for the vendor room wouldn't bother you. It's just that it's one of many things...
