[kokob007]

No i wouldnt say huge! its decent size, if you been to vivid aquarium kinda like that. mostly livestock didnt see drygoods.

I hope their in store prices are the same as online. If not, Im going to make a quick print out on the blue carpet.

The blue carpet is actually more. If u click on the sizes it will tell u how much more it is.

I can say this about stores that offer internet sales. Most times their instore price is higher becuase their online prices include shipping and often times have less overhead since they can keep the items in a wharehouse or in the "back". Jeff's does this a lot. Their online prices are way better than their store prices. Usually if you call them out on it or quote a MD price they will get pretty close to the price. Anyway my point is that you might not want to get mad or bash them for not offering the same price in the store.
