I went to Petco to see if they had the water conditioner for the retf and of course they didnt have it but i thought i would stroll over to the clearance anyway.. might as well not waste a trip, so they had meduim under the tank heaters on the rack for $3 each (omg $3 each?!) so of course i picked up the two they had left.. I get them home and one blows out my circuit the moment i plug it in, frying the wall socket and UTH (Real nice) well the other one works great...so i suppose one for $6 marked down from $18 aint bad right?
also i picked up two frozen adult mice for Cameron (See if she woudl take them, so much easier to do that way then keep a few at a time live) and i thawed it out and hot dog it stinks!!! very disatisfied with thatand i only saved $0.40 on frozen then getting live and i dont know that cameron will eat it or not cause shes only been offered live.
they had a couple cresteds in their display, one animal has been there FOREVER, at least 6mos if not more, the other one almost as long.. marked at $49.99 so I asked to see it (i love cresties, and mine are still small babies, this one was BIG) so i pull it out and its tail is so deformed it wasnt funny.. otherwise it looked healthy over all. I asked what they were willing to let it go considering not only how long it had been there but also its deformed tail and they said $24.99, considering the "Deal" I almost did it until I remembered that thread lately about how buying an animal that im "Rescuing" is doing the petstore a favor because they are able to sell it and get more in.. so i had to walk away, as difficult as it was, i put the male back and told the salesman, im sorry but i try not to purchase from you in the first place, i had no buisness asking for an animal from you. Thank you and i hope you have a wonderful day... by the way you might want to consider changing its moldy food and giving them a bigger hide...
