just take food with you. I refuse to buy food at car shows now, its a complete rip off for poor quality food. Trax last year was pretty bad for food prices.
A friend of mine made a mint on selling coke cans and red bull, stuck a sign in the side of his car selling the coke for £1 a can that he bought in a multipack down the road. Was making around 4 times what it cost him and it did a good job of pissing off the food vendors which made it all worth while.

Ahh someone else that's noticed that.. I've never tasted cat piss but I imagine if I had that's what it would taste like!
I'd always take a pack out but it's easier for me as I've got a camper :).. I would probably have a burger so budget of about £5
