Hello all! This will be my first time attending a reptile expo (it is the San Jose Herp Expo on Saturday and Sunday). I was just wondering if it is better to attend on Saturday? I have more free time on Sunday to really explore around, but I am worried that some supplies might sell out by then. Do people have any recommendations/tips for first time expo goers? Thank you very much in advance!

I have no idea if it will make a difference which day you attend except that there may be more deals on Sunday. In general, take a notebook and list all the stuff you want/need. Go through the whole show and write down how much the different vendors are charging for various things (be sure to write down where the vendors are located at the show). Then you can either go and get the best deals from each, or see if you can get one place to match the best prices you've found at the show.

If you're looking for an animal, go Saturday for sure. If you need supplies or just want to go without a plan and spend money, go Sunday. Do what Aliza said and bring a notebook to mark prices. And ALWAYS do a whole trip around the show before making a purpose. If you see something you REALLY want on the first trip, just ask them to set it aside for a few minutes
