Got some JDs for almost for free!

Ok here we go. I went to my lfs to get some fish food, notice they had some jds for sale. They were about 5"-7" but were $30 each. So i said ugh maybe some other time. They ended up not having the fish food i wanted so i went to another lfs to find some. I notice they also had three 5"-7" jds. They were $30 with 50% off. So i start talking to the manager.

Me: Let me get one of those JDs.
Manager: Why not all 3
Me: well i dont have $45
Manager:How much do you have.
Me: Enough for one.
Manager: What the heck. You come here all the time for supplies. I"ll give you all 3 and the fish food($10.99) for $20 dollars.
Me: Bag them up! You got your self a deal!


They are currently in a qt tank. I will try to take pics tomorrow. Really wanted to share my joyful story with everyone. 3 jds with good coloring for 10 dollars basiclly, i call that a steal!

pretty good deal, although it does seem places charge too much for common fish like JD these days
