J&L seems to have some good deals today...

25% off Vertex skimmers, avg seems to be about 15-20% off...

Picked up a few things for my 40G tank with some christmas funds. :mrgreen:

- Vertex IN-80 Skimmer
- 2x 3/4" Strainer Fittings
- Spears 3/4" Gate Valve
- Ebo 125W Heater.

What did everyone else get?

I wanted a Ushio bulb too, great price on those today, but I haven't decided whether I am going with 150 or 250 on the smaller tank...

Where did you get the ER, Christy?

I think its over $250 today.

"Free shipping on orders over $250.00 after discounts are applied.
This applies to Boxing Day Sale orders only - Regular restrictions apply."

New bulbs. My annual bulb purchase. I would have purchased LOTS of salt, but I wasn't happy with the salt they had on hand.

Several elos test kits and lots of rowaphos plus some random stuff just to get past the $250 mark. I would have loved to bulk up on salt, reactor media, and frozen food but then I wouldnt get the free shipping.

I didn't get anything:sad: because my new tank hasn't finished cycling yet and I bought all the dry goods 2 weeks ago, because I forgot about the boxing day sales.:( So now I'm just going to pout and :drinking:

I only windowed shopped online tonight. Didn't buy anything.

I didn't have the day off, and Boxing Day and my pay day just didn't match up, a week too early.

bought a new crocea from Big Als - Beautiful.
Got a tunze nano wavebox package from JL (seemed like one of the better deals they had), this was a total impulse buy.
And a yellow head Jawfish, he didn't last more than 4 hours though :sad:

Me and the realbigal jumped in his jacked up jeep tj with HUGE tires and we made it out to king eds, JL and big als.

Nobody really had exceptionally great sales IMO ( I brought a lot more money than I spent, a rarity for me).
