Bargain alert

I don't know if this applies elsewhere, but just in case it does, I thought I'd let you know that Petco (mine, anyway) is clearing out their ZooMed 500R thermostats for $9.98, one-fourth of the usual in-store price. I bought the last two here, but maybe some of you can get this good deal too. :)

Hmm..I will pay a visit tommorow. Thanks for the tip Marla.

You're welcome. I hope it's a national thing. :)

I hope so, too. I'm gonna check as well.

Are those the ones that don't take grounded (one side bigger than the other - not three-prong) plugs? I cant remember the model number but Smynx ordered a couple and it turned out she couldn't plug anything useful into them =\ If not I will be on that like stank on stank.

I called home and got Adrian to check for me, and they do take polarized plugs (one side longer than the other) but not grounded (3-pronged). Also, the unit itself has a polarized plug. HTH!

Cool - I need to get the model number from her on the less than useful ones we wound up with and maybe post a review.

Definitely a good idea. I was psyched to see these for under $10 and couldn't see through the package what kind of plugs they took, but was willing to make the gamble for that price.

Thanks for the tip Marla, went and picked one up yesterday, the last one in the store. What a great deal!

You're welcome, gen, glad you got one. :-)
