I just thought I'd post this. I've seen it here, I think, in the past but I figured it deserved it's own thread.
My Magnum 350 started making some funky sounds last night. I shut it off and when I turned it back on, crunch!!, part of the impeller assembly broke, no big deal, I'll fix it. What is the big deal is that was my only filter.....
So,.....I read a bunch of reviews on the net and decided on a Rena XP-3 as the replacement. Petsmart.com listed it for 104.99. The Petsmart retail store price was....................169.99!!!! :mad2 :rant: :mad2
Petsmart will give you the internet price in the retail store ONLY if you have a printed copy of the price from the website. They will not accept any other web companies prices. I didn't find out til' I was in the store and I wasn't about to drive an hour back home to print out a copy but luckily I remembered there was a Comp USA next door. After a little brown nosing I was back at Petsmart to get my XP-3 $65 cheaper.
