The Ultra Maxima is Gorgeous!!!! :mrgreen:

How much is AI paying? I would like to apply for a job there please so I can afford these $200 beautiful ultra maxima clams :mrgreen:

You have to remember Laurie is collecting her sunshine girl pension! :wink:

:lol: :wink:

Pretty sure I need a job at AI too :surprise: Or maybe a rich boyfriend. :redface:

Thanks

No rich boyfriend needed, just a well off Mom who loaned me some money then told me not to worry about paying her back :mrgreen: (let's hope she doesn't read that :redface:)

The clam was from Steve at red coral and unfortunately I make less a month (working only Saturdays) then the $200 clam

:lol: Ya right I wish! Unfortunately sunshine girls don't get paid it's strictly volunteer and in my case (back in the day) I got volunteered for it. Originally a friend of mine was supposed to go but she called me saying she was sick (pretty sure she just chickened out) and begged me to take her place.

That sounds good to me. Anybody wanna hook me up with a sugar mama? :lol:

I still would like to work for AI though. They seem to have the best selection in town. If they don't pay me enough, I will just use my "two-finger" employee discount :twised:

Pretty sure that's frowned upon.

These maximas are amazing and, BTW Laurie, yours is spectacular. I was waiting for this shipment a long time myself. Snagged one myself, I'm quite fond of it, even though it put me in the doghouse for a bit on account of cost. :lol: (I should get a picture up soon I guess.) But it was nice to be able to actually participate in a shipment for a change, for a guy like me who's chained to a desk all day and then chasing after little kids for the evenings and weekends, by the time I get to the stores, everything is picked clean and all that's left is whatever everyone else didn't want. Also noteworthy to consider IMO, the price isn't that hugely different than the Cook Island clams from a few months ago but whereas those were 1" in size, these are 6" and up. The value is incomparable.

At any rate - very nice new clams there. How many are you up to now? I think I'm up to 9. A far cry from the 14 I had at one point - but slowly climbing back up there!! :lol: I'm such a sucker for tridacnids..
