[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We will buy it for major meets/big achievements- first time making JO's or NCSA, but never buy it for minor meets like Turkey Claus. [/quote]

Merch at Turkey Claus, the horror!

*clutches pearls*

(Yeah, merch is expensive.  It can also be a fun motivator for kids and a reminder of the benefits of their hard work, including their participation at Turkey Claus.)[/quote]

Not sure why you took that so personally and felt the need to *clutches pearls*

OP asked what others do and I stated what we do. I didn't comment or judge those who buy merch at every meet. Just stated what we do and when and where my kids ask for merch/care about buying it.

I know families who have insanely fast kids who qualify for all the big meets and buy merch at meets like Turkey Claus. No judgement. You do you. [/quote]
I’m also the parent of a fast kid and I think referring to a meet like Turkey Claus as “minor” when that is the winter champs meet for a lot of kids gives the impression of being too good for a meet like that.[/quote]

Yup I agree with this. If it’s a meet with a high attendance and/or has prelim and finals, it’s a big meet! Also, Turkey Claus is a fun name for a meet. Deserving of some good merchandise. [/quote]
