The local petco here had pinstripes and spiders for 299.99 a few months back, now they have them listed for 149.99. I was really surprised to see them, but i am definitely not surprised they are not selling for them. I dont hate petco or anything i just wish they would give a little more info about care of the animals. The petco i speak of sells hot rocks, heat mats, heat lamps, etc., but not a single thermostat. Makes absolutely no sense to me.
