Anyone do any Boxing Day shopping?
 
J&L seems to have some good deals today...

25% off Vertex skimmers, avg seems to be about 15-20% off...

Picked up a few things for my 40G tank with some christmas funds. :mrgreen:

- Vertex IN-80 Skimmer
- 2x 3/4" Strainer Fittings
- Spears 3/4" Gate Valve
- Ebo 125W Heater.

What did everyone else get?

christyf5 12-26-2008 09:43 PM

ER RS250
Ushio 250W bulbs
some zeo stuff and some new bulbs for my nano.


God I love shopping online :razz:

JDigital 12-26-2008 10:08 PM

I wanted a Ushio bulb too, great price on those today, but I haven't decided whether I am going with 150 or 250 on the smaller tank...

Where did you get the ER, Christy?

wayner 12-26-2008 10:36 PM

Anyone know if it's free shipping from J&L over $150 on Ballasts to?

JDigital 12-26-2008 10:42 PM

I think its over $250 today.

marie 12-26-2008 10:57 PM

I ordered 2 Tunze 6085 Pumps and some more media for my calcium reactor...only so I could get the free calendar of course :razz:

fiorano 12-26-2008 11:54 PM

2 t5 bulbs
2 vertex 250 watt ballasts.
3 aqua connect 14000k bulb 250w
and some test kits.

does anyone know anything about those vertex ballasts?

xtreme 12-27-2008 12:04 AM

I have a 250W Vertex ballast. Apparently they come out of the same factory as Icecaps do. My is running an Ushio bulb and looks great

Keri 12-27-2008 12:11 AM

I'm jealous! The roads were too sketchy so we didn't try to get into town today. Hopefully tomorrow tho (no sales but I want to pick up my Bellus angel!!)

untamed 12-27-2008 12:13 AM

New bulbs. My annual bulb purchase. I would have purchased LOTS of salt, but I wasn't happy with the salt they had on hand.

whatcaneyedo 12-27-2008 12:23 AM

Several elos test kits and lots of rowaphos plus some random stuff just to get past the $250 mark. I would have loved to bulk up on salt, reactor media, and frozen food but then I wouldnt get the free shipping.

I know, i know....but i like to go, look, touch before I buy. Mostly I'm just getting cabin fever....

Lance 12-27-2008 04:45 AM

I didn't get anything:sad: because my new tank hasn't finished cycling yet and I bought all the dry goods 2 weeks ago, because I forgot about the boxing day sales.:( So now I'm just going to pout and :drinking:

awa1979 12-27-2008 04:48 AM

I only windowed shopped online tonight. Didn't buy anything.

I didn't have the day off, and Boxing Day and my pay day just didn't match up, a week too early.

Whatigot 12-30-2008 03:55 PM

bought a new crocea from Big Als - Beautiful.
Got a tunze nano wavebox package from JL (seemed like one of the better deals they had), this was a total impulse buy.
And a yellow head Jawfish, he didn't last more than 4 hours though :sad:

Me and the realbigal jumped in his jacked up jeep tj with HUGE tires and we made it out to king eds, JL and big als.

Nobody really had exceptionally great sales IMO ( I brought a lot more money than I spent, a rarity for me).

2 bags sugar sand

I got nothing for christmas, except I bought a new wallet, to downsize just to hold a credit card. It wasn't even on sale, I had to pay full retail. Regards Ken
