    Angry Any site recommendations to order the acurites and jumpstarts?

    Okay this is unbelievable just a few months ago I bought 3 jumpstarts and 3 Acurites for 18-20$ each....NOW they're 25-40$!!! I'm in so financial situtation at this moment to spend that kinda money to set up two new tanks.....any cheaper web sites that are within the closer range that i originally bought them for? Amazon is out of the question....they just jacked their prices two fold....Thanks for any help!

    It may be the Christmas season that has the prices higher than normal. Consider shopping for them after the holidays?
    Stay in peace and not pieces.

    Amazon.

    I like this one. It bounces around between $11-$15. Usually around 14, but I got 2 last week for 11.

    The standard one it $9

    Thanks SDA, looking at all options, looks like ima just bite the bullet on the Jumpstarts and as far as the Acurites, I️ have the AcuRite 00891A3 Indoor/Outdoor Digital Thermometer with Humidity that I️ really like that I️ have in three of the other tanks, but it seems they’ve been discontinued or completely out EVERYWHERE lol so again looks like I’ll just be going with what I️ can currently get.
    I’m currently working on re-organizing my reptile room with a shelving unit to make more room for the newer additions here in the next month so hopefully this all pans out. thanks for all the input!

    these Apollo t-stats are jsut rebranded Jumpstart Thermostats: https://www.amazon.com/Apollo-Hortic...art+thermostat i started w/ Jumpstarts and have the Apollo's as well (still have them) for my tanks.

    also i have a few of these hygometers/thermometers: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 $10bucks and i think they look cute. u get an frowny baby face when the humidity/temps get below your presets.

    Edit: and those Apollo's are like half the price.

    That is a great point! They are all pretty much the same device just rebranded.

    Just watch Amazon and pick them up while their low. Amazon its self doesn't set the price, people selling them do. If someone else comes along and offers them cheaper, nab it.
