Just got back from the fish store in town. I was going to pickup a 20 gallon used for $6, a filter, and a heater. Should of been a simple purchase. But noooooo their credit card machine froze up while doing the transaction. so the girl ran my card again but it was declined. (paypal debit card) So i went to the atm to pull the money and it was declined there as well. Well i get home and check my paypal balance. The transaction went through. So I called them up at the store and told them about it and they said there wasnt anything they could do since they printed out the last sales they had and that transaction wasnt there. So they said they would have the manager call me. Well to hell with that. I called up paypal and had the transaction reversed in like 2 minutes. Funds are back in my account again. =) thank god. I am going to hit the atm and go pickup my tank. I dont think I will trust that place again with my debit card.
Man I am so mad right now.

I get offered all the small tanks for free because people are just going to throw them out but I cant find any used big tank...
I didnt really mean to make fun of you, but fish keeping quite expensive at times that is really all I meant by finding a better paper route.
no it was only $6 for the tank. But the filter and heater is what cost.
they had 10 gallons for $3. standard tall 20 gallons for $9. and the 20 gallon long for $6
I might go pickup some more. They have probably 60 tanks sitting behind the store. the 10 gallons were all saltwater tanks. the 20's were fresh.

Heck I wished SOMEONE would give me a tank! 
Actually I got close from getting a 125gal from my boyf's parents.... but they had left it in there garage for who knows how many years (and -35 winters) and when they went to take it out it was all cracked up and broken everywhere!
