Bring plenty of change, most if not all transactions should be cash so be able to break $100 bills. Bring money to buy stuff since it's a rule that you have to go home with as many weapons as your brought in and they should all be different from the ones your brought in.

Also, when making a sale, if it doesn't feel right, you aren't obligated to go through with it. Some people put off a vibe that when I feel it my store is closed to them. Your mileage may vary. Don't be afraid to ask a young person wanting to buy a pistol how old they are. If not 21 then consider not making the sale.

Bring someone to help out at your table. At some point between 7a - 5p you might need to take a bathroom break and how secure are you in walking off from your table without someone to watch it? Folks on either side of you will often watch for you but if they get busy with a sale you could have something walk away.

Have fun, shake a lot of hands and speak to a lot of people. All in all, with a few exceptions in the group, we are just ordinary people and like being treated as friends and not folks you'll never see again.
