I went to Wilkes-Barre Pa. today to pick up my wife and along the way I took my two girls to Petco and Petsmart to spend some time with them and of course they love pet stores. After awhile I was looking at the driftwood and noticed a medium sized piece priced at 9.99 that I really liked, took it up to the casher along with one of those phone in survey's where you get 2.00 off of your next purchase. The cashier mentioned that it wasn't going through and I told him it says it's good until October and he said no the problem was that I needed to get 5.00 or more in purchase to get 2.00 off. I asked him how much did it ring up and he said 1.50 and so I asked him to give me the wood and I'd check out later, well I went back and found 9 more very nice pieces that would look great in the tank, figure even if I don't use them all now that I can't pass up such a wonderful deal. Spent a little over 14.00 for 100.00 worth or more of nice Mopani drift wood, would have gotten more but one of the employees found out and got 3 of them. So the trip was certainly money worth spent and a terrific find at that.

Ya, I thought about that just a while ago. The pieces ain't huge but there are some pretty big pieces. Now I'm going to have to sit down and see if there are any pieces of wood in my other tanks that I want to replace with the ones I bought today or just may replace the feller stone with more of the drift wood. Now I'll have to take time and boil piece by piece so as not to have the tannins leak out so baddly, I don't mind it so much but my wife likes looking at them clear so guess what I try to make her happy especially since she is the one that's home all day.
