Well, another Wednesday rolled by, as did another shipment of reptiles at PetSmart. Sadly, their suppliers still haven't gotten around to filling the order for one crested gecko. I'm not angry with PetSmart or anything; I mean if their suppliers are screwing them, they can't really be blamed. Sure it COULD be a cover-up story... if it wasn't for the fact that every other pet store I contact is also waiting shipment on these guys. Time to expand my horizons. I really didn't want to have to go out of town to get my cresty, for multiple reasons.
Reasons being:
-Long travel time for a little critter. Although I guess it's no worst than the trip to the pet store.
-Local custom. I'm not super patriotic or anything, but I do like giving my business to the locals when I can.
-Solidarity. I've pretty much got all my gear at this local PetSmart and I'm the kind of guy that likes to honor that.
-Gas prices. It's expensive enough as it is to buy this little geek without jacking up the price with travel expenses. Grr
Eh, whatever. I'm most likely going to a PetSmart anyways, since their are like six in Ottawa alone. I hope my membership card still applies out of town.
