I bought this for the first time a month or so ago. Its for my new Arowana. Needed to get him eating right away. He LOVES this stuff.

Anywhoo. Just wondering how much YOUR LFS charges for this same size bag. 8.8 oz.
The one down the street from me charged $28.99!!!! :WHOA:

So needless to say I went online and found a 2.2 POUND bag on Amazon.com for $32.99.

I did the math. The 2.2lb bag equates to 4 8.8 oz bags. If I bought 4 of these bags from my LFS, I would be paying $115.96.

I'm saving $82.97!!! I cant believe how bad I got ripped off by my LFS. :irked:

I know. Makes me mad too. I used to work for this LFS. That owner rips everyone off. I only go there to see if he's selling a fish cheap because he doesnt know what it is.

Never buying food from him again though.

Thanks for the links. That AZOO stuff is even less expensive than the bag I just got. :)
 
I never buy the sticks, way to $$$
I can buy a big bag of hikari pellets at wally world for $10
 
My aro just spits the bio gold pellets out. And btw you can get the bio gold pellets for $4.95 from dr. f&s for a 8.8oz bag. I love my petsmart for price matching
