I am bringing a bunch of stuff to sell.  Now that I am running a lot SmartStrings I no longer to hoard these things. 
2 50ft yellow 12/3
12+ 25ft green 14/3
several 22ft green 14/3 with 3 outlets
8+ 15ft green extension cords
a tub full of new floodlight holders and colored floodlights

This is all brand new stuff and there is still more that I am still going to keep.  I am almost afraid to count up all the used extension cords that I have replaced with cat5.

I will be bringing a 7ft half pixel tree made up of 8 flexstrips cut in half to give me 16 strips of 60 pixels but configured as 8 strips of 120 in an up down pattern.  All the electronics are done and I have been playing with it using the xlights tester.  I need to learn how to use Vixen routines that I have created using nutcracker.  Will also have my laptop with LSP 2.5 if someone can help me get the tree started in there.  Will bring both USB dongle and etherdongle to play with.
