Ha, Wayne!

Ask Brody at Big Al's if he brought some in - I asked him to, and he had an order going in, said he might try it.

i was in ba yesterday and got into a fight with those idiots. i asked them to clarify their price matching policy. they told me that on website based stores they don't really want to price match because it isn’t fair to them, they said even j&l is "gray area". he started to get into how j&l have wrecked the industry by selling salt for "below cost". dang it's like listing to why my bank is upping their service charges. i said if you guys lowered your prices you might be more competitive, they sorta looked at each other and snickered. he actually had the balls to tell me that on some of their products they are cheaper than j&l, i said what like the tunze stuff, he said well our stream price is ONLY $30 dollars more! the real irony was i was in looking for some eco-complete planted soil mix, i said on your big als us site you sell it for 17.99 bucks a bag but in canada you sell it for 39.99 a bag what the hell? he told me yeah well that’s all mail order, there is a difference you know.

Deb, is that cheaper than from J&L? I'm going to try that route, I think.

pa is a nice place to order from but with the shipping, exchange, tax(s) and clearance fee you have to order enough stuff to make it worthwhile. i bet if you only order the reactor you will break even on it.
