200 gallon Instant Ocean for $36.70 delivered from DFS

[D-Nak]

Just wanted to point out a deal on salt. Doctor Foster & Smith has a 25% off coupon today for fish supplies. The code is:

LOYALFSH

It works on all non-MAP items, including Instant Ocean salt which is currently on sale (it usually it as DFS). If you buy 2 boxes, you qualify for free shipping.

So, 2 x $39.99 - 25% + tax + free shipping = $73.39 for two boxes, or $36.70 each box delivered to your door.

I tried it and it didn't work. can not be use on onsale items it says.

Nope, it should work!

Though my math as a little off, since it comes out to $36.95 per box.

Also, it looks like they're taking off the 25% off the normal price of $44.99, but you're still saving money and it's the cheapest I've found right now. Amazon's price is $39.99 but they charge tax on top of it.

I just tried it, it worked for me.
I did not order, I just ordered and received it from marinedepot. they will price match.
I ordered from marinedepot thinking I will get it sooner, but they now ship from Atlanta instead of Los Angeles so it takes 5 days via Fedex instead of 1-2 days.

curious, how long does it take to receive using DFS?

DFS charges sales tax as well, that's why I did not place the order with them, but true this is the lowest total price.

Yup, tax is shown above. I just want to make sure that we're calculating the total price, as some places charge tax and others don't.

I like that Marine Depot lets us use the NOCALTAX code to save on tax.

This is still the cheapest price for the salt.

The post was from 2014, and 2015 they have the exact same deal at about the same time which I missed.
I'm going to make sure I don't miss it this year.

you can figure the markup for salt if they still make a profit at 50% off + rebate.

Thanks for the heads up! Bought a few boxes

Kent was supposed to be more than Instant Ocean by $5 each, but for some reason showed more savings than Instant Ocean with the code... $36 each shipped as well! Thanks a lot, bought 3!

Derrick, this is for Reef Crystals, not just basic IO?

I think Reef Crystals is $10 more per box, but the coupon works for both. It takes 25% off the normal price. So if something is already on sale, the savings is less.

 

[sfsuphysics]

yeah noticed the 25% off was off the non sale price of 44.95 but whatever it's good for salt. Just make sure to meet the FedEx guy at his truck with a dolly and he'll hate you a whole lot less

 

[SWBeginer]

what are the differences between Instant Ocean and Reef Crystal ?

Thanks for this. I just bought 2 last week and bought 4 more just now. UPS guy hates me.
