Water: You always want to stay as hydrated as possible. Remember, when you are diving in tropical climates, it is best to have a bottle of water with you.

The next step is to circle to venue, and askrepparttar different tickets scalpers (people who buy & sell tickets for profit) what prices they want for their tickets. You should find that they vary dramatically per scalper, and so try to memorizerepparttar 133282 cheapest areas. The key places that scalpers flock arerepparttar 133283 main entrances andrepparttar 133284 box office, but are often more expensive in these places. Don’t be tempted to purchase tickets just yet – unless your happy withrepparttar 133285 price/or there are few ticket scalpers around. Scalpers will always be at events that have a high demand and ifrepparttar 133286 event is not in high demand then you should have easily gotten tickets forrepparttar 133287 venue/club itself! IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: The closer torepparttar 133288 event,repparttar 133289 cheaperrepparttar 133290 scalpers will sell their tickets.

The next thing to do is to try and find fans with extra/spare tickets. Fans will not be looking for much for their tickets and so tickets can come cheap! It’s quite easy to tellrepparttar 133291 difference between fans and scalpers. Scalpers are usually interested in buying tickets, not just selling. Scalpers will also be standing in one place, while fans tend to walk around. The biggest difference is of courserepparttar 133292 clothes (this is easier to tellrepparttar 133293 difference in concerts). Fans will usually haverepparttar 133294 team colours (sporting events), or dressed to look good/performers t-shirt (concerts) while scalpers will be in everyday clothes. If you find a fan with tickets buy them here instead ofrepparttar 133295 scalpers, as you will findrepparttar 133296 prices are cheaper.

You must now buy your tickets from scalpers. The biggest factor now is timing, for sporting events then you are better purchasing tickets forrepparttar 133297 start, but for concerts it’s not so important asrepparttar 133298 supporting acts aren’t so special. Its now up to you how long you wait to get your tickets,repparttar 133299 later you leave it,repparttar 133300 cheaperrepparttar 133301 tickets will be. Take into account whether you have been to this venue before. An important thing to know is, as soon asrepparttar 133302 show is scheduled to startrepparttar 133303 ticket prices plummet! A decade ago (before my Free Ticket Methods), I used to be able to get tickets for a few dollars/pounds that were worth anything up to £30/$50. It’s truly amazing how much you can save by missingrepparttar 133304 first 5 minutes of a show.

Enjoyrepparttar 133305 show!
