Blog Rules!

Being a new blog, we thought it best to add a few rules to keep you pesky spammers in check!  We also thought it would be nice to have a couple of positive rules to keep the CheapTents.com blog a nice place to keep returning to!

  4. Feel free to submit pictures of you via email along with any stories, etc
