Hey guys, when you post ads about sales or new things you get in, how about throwing a few prices in your post? Would make the decision whether to drive 25 miles to your store MUCH easier.

LOL  I agree.
I love seeing stores post on here.  I wish all store owners would jump on here once a week and tell us what they have.  It would get me to visit their store!!!!!
 
But you are right, if I knew yellow tangs were $10 somewhere I'd jump in the car and go.... but what if I get somewhere and yellow tangs are $40?

Come to a meeting, they’re fun!

Ed,
 
Great suggestion! May I add that pictures would also be a huge motivator for many. Especially if the LFS is showcasing a rare or unusual coral / fish.

I've even noticed the problem IN a couple of the stores. They shall remain nameless, but probably know who they are. I kind of feel like they have the attitude that if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it.

Great suggestion, Ed. If I was a store, I would be doing exactly that.

I agree it would be nice to have a few prices listed.  I understand that some stores dont want to let the competition know there prices so they feel they have the "upper hand", however if the competition really wanted to stay ahead all they would have to do is send a "secret shopper" in to find that info.  I like Ed, would rather know the price of something before I waste the $ for gas to drive out only to find stuff that is way to pricey.
