They just had one recently. Not even the employees know when they are until very short time before.

They always have one around Christmas / New Years, but I bet they will have another before that.

I'm telling you guys, we got a 55/G gallon today for about $59. I was doing some work on the north side for a guy. I literally made him get a new sump. We definetely got it for the sale price, and we called before we went and they told us the sale was on.

Call this location, it was this one.



Here's a few pics of the tank and sump overhaul I did toda

The problem. Stand too low. No room to work in sump. Sump was too high. Sump was too small. Tank was completely overran with algae and a detritus trap with closed aquascape. Too much rock in DT. HOB filter. Yeah, it was bad.

I called all of the Petcos within 10 miles of me and none were having the $1/gallon sale. Although one said they might have the sale on Friday.

The store out 249 seems to be the only one that is having the sale. I thought about going, but that is ~40 minutes each way and I'd waste most of my savings on gas getting there and back.

I suppose it's possible they had leftover stock from the last time and the manager wanted to get rid of it.

Yeah, I was like you need a new sump. So I called to see how much a 55/G was because that's the only good option for his stand. The lady on the phone was like "the $ per gal sale is on!" I said really?! I was thinking dang, they just had one. Anyway, we got there and sure enough, got it for sale price.

I just talked to Katlyn, on of the girls who works at the 249 store. They just had a major remodel and had a two day "Grand Reopening sale." They were the only store to have it,
