Tampa LFS Charges Admission Fee

[Patrick1]

You know I hang out a gold aqaurium a lot. But if they are busy I get out of the way if I am not buying something. Wait that never happens...They always get my money... Ummm I would never pay to come look at buying something. How ever when I am trying to watch a fish and make a decision about a purchase. Nothing drives me more nuts then being bumped around by 50 people using the store as a poor man's zoo.. I was talking with Dennis one day and people came in with a couple of kids old enough to know better. Who grabbed a hand full of bulk food and tossed it into one of his tanks. For some reason the parents didn't feel like they should have to cover the cost of the wasted food, not to mention the staff wages to clean up the mess.

But you never see Dennis tell other people with kids to stay out or not take the time to talk to people if they are not too busy. I have watched them take people who are just killing time and turn them into customers. So maybe instead of charging your walk in traffic. Try doing you job and get them excited about salt and turn them into buyers...
