you know what.. i should do that... been loosing a lot of $$$ on my wallet. maybe just go once a week and check out what i want and leave either getting the best deal or no deal at all. :D you got control i would say.:D
 
I love it !!! You guys are hardcore!!!:headbang2 Most of my friends and family say I am crazy for going to all of my LFS's once a week. But yeah what if that special fish comes in? You have to be there to get it. Now I don't feel as crazy, thanks for the posts!!:)

lol!!!
i go like 3-4 times a week even more. theres some days that u just have to feed the addiction. i dont buy much fish, i mainly look there for a good second hand deals on tanks filters, etc sometimes fish that are traded too. theres like 5 diff lfs here my favorite one is the one thats on my way hom from work.. the others are far like 30minutes bus/subway trip but cant fight the hunger within. Friday (payday) is always a sure day to go.

we here on MfK needs to get rehabilitated. :nilly:
 
i tend to find out the days when they get the new stock in, then get there asap if i'm looking for new fish and not just a general browse
 
at least 2 times a week for just a look to c if they got anthing worth wild my lfs is the worst $2 neons $600 for a 55g take and stand i need to move
 
I go like 4 times a week and look at the fish and "wish I wasnt broke right now".

But since Ive been doing that on and off for the last few years sometimes I can get away with pointing out that a certain trade in is going to cost him more to feed than hes likely to make off of it....and mentioning that Ill "take it off his hands for him".

Ive done that with a 12" TSN before.got it scott free and sold it right away on craigslist.:headbang2
 
I have tried to stop going as often it used to be almost up to 3-4 different petshops at least once a week, now I avoid them just so I won't find something cool that I want, but know that I can't keep. So now I may go maybe once a week to buy some pet food. I have to control myself for now!
