I'd like to see them here tbh. I hate no knowing when stock comes in. I miss the personal attention received from one store in particular. That said, the stores we do have are obviously successful and do not need the additional promotions as all stores receive comments both good and bad.

Webpage! Only one LFS in Calgary got an webpage and updates regularly about the new arrivals! That would save a lot of time and disappointment of going to LFS and finding nothing new; particularly for people like me who have to use public transport and lets be honest, Calgary's transit have lots and lots of scope of improvement.

Problem I see with a website is that if I announce everything new in each week, you're not likely to drop in if I don't have what you want. I'd announce new shipments, but you need to come in to see what's arrived. And buy some food, and putty, and frag plugs. Oh, and you need a new heater while you're here...

No, no heaters. NEVER new heaters. I'll stick with my 17 year old green Ebo Jager....

+1!!!

It also kind of embarrassing to ask price of each livestock one by one and its even more embarrassing when the price is way out of the league of the wallet and one have to say "oh well I will pass". Its always better its have the price posted on so that one can silently pass along with something like "oh well, maybe next month!".

Like once I had to hear "man, you are cheap" when I kept on asking price and kept passing on :P

yup agreed...I am pretty new to this as well so not only listing the price but also having a picture would make my life soo much easier.

I hate being lied to (you dont know something, TELL ME! dont pull cr@p out of your @$$ to make yourself look smart), and I also do not do well with attitude! Oh gawd, thanks Denny now Im on a rant.

I also like clean spaces with staff who dont smother, seeing an inch of creep ontop of tanks makes me want to barf (if you cant take basic housekeeping care what makes me think you take care of your livestock..)

OooooOooo oh and being able to bring stuff in is reeeeeeeeally nice! I really dont mind waiting for something if it can be brought in, its also a great way to gain more business cause I know for me I will return cause I know you don thave what I want you will bring it in for me which I totally appreciate!

Clear merching with clearly printed/typed labels also makes me (and especially my OCD) happy.

Speaking of which, I really need to come in and pick your guys brain and see about getting some products.
