Petco $ per Gallon sale-(not so good)

[voss345]

dont support chain buisnesses............. especially places like these that put your LFS out of buisness

i was talking to this lady from Sera fish products when we added there product to our drygood section
her parents started a family run LFS in VT and when they gave it to her after a few years petco moved right in down the street.... that was the end to her shop

It's no secret that their employees get first dibs on any of the tanks. The good ones are always gone before the store opens, so I never go to even look.

I just went there today and saw this sale. Too bad it's only for tanks up to 29 gallons, they make up for that though when you have to buy a hood and a filter. I seen a similar set-up at Petsmart for $10.00 cheaper with a hood than buying it seperate at Petco.

You can still find great deals at local stores if you shop around. There's a store here on long island in Coram that has incredible deals on filters and filter media, even fish food too! Cheaper than any place I've seen online. The deals are out there and I would much rather support an indepently operated store.

Dont worry about that this year, the good sizes arent on sale.

I got my 55g in great condition for $25 and a 20g for free all eurobraced with thick glass.

I rarely go to Petco unless it's an absolute emergency since the LFS around me close at 7pm and Petco stays open until 9pm.

It's pretty lame this year. More likely, it's going to be like that from here on out.

What more could you expect from a lame chain store.

what are you talking about? Most of the petco employees don't know a single thing about the area they run, none the less even want to buy any of the supplies. they just have crummy stock.

im REALLY disappointed in the quality of the people who work there =\

If they had some 6ft+ tanks for 1$ a gallon I would have maxed out my CC this weekend. haha

i may head over to get a fry tank or 2. people in my area try to sell 20g tanks for $50

Anyone know if the sale applies to the 2-2.5 gallon tanks? Thanks
