Great idea. It seems the last 2 weekends I have spent in Greeley or Ft Collins for my reefing needs. And like you said it's not just us 4 or 5. And while at Animal Attractions (Greeley) today the guy behind the counter said that folks from Wyoming (or out of town I would assume) get a 10% discount so they must get quite a few people from these parts. I would love to get some frag swaps going (not that I have any to frag) but still...my 125 is almost ready to stock<a href=showthread.php?s=&postid=15058673#post15058673 target=_blank>Originally posted</a> by mef_rn98
Maybe we could see if any of the FoCo and Greeley stores would let us post a flyer in their stores as well. Surely there has to be more than just a handful of southeastern Wyoming folks with saltwater tanks, otherwise I wouldn't think a place like Aquatic Treasures could even exist. I'm betting though, that like us, there are plenty of others who make the trek south for purchases. And believe it or not, there are people out there reefing who have never heard of Reef Central (gasp, I know!). At the DARC frag swap last weekend, I overheard a lady talking to 12gallonbaby who had no idea what Reef Central is, so if we could post flyers in the stores where Wyoming folks are likely to go, maybe we could stir up some more interest!
Lief, I had every intention of going but there was a good deal on live rock so I went that route instead<a href=showthread.php?s=&postid=15066391#post15066391 target=_blank>Originally posted</a> by spleify
I think it is a great idea to advertise a little. The stores should be happy to do it, and maybe they would be willing to host a meeting or two. That is good business for them too.
I wish I knew some of you were coming down for the DARC swap, I was there too.
