i noticed that as well

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...

+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

I miss having a store that wasn't a 45+ minute drive from the south side of the city.
