Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I did notice no one takes cash anymore
Not only that, no one knows how to count or take the cash either.
Our whole trip was a QR code so thankfully I had my son with us lol or I'd still be in line waiting for the plane, rental car, hotel, parking...

It's becoming obsolete, everything is numbers on a screen now, at the same time it does feel safer so I can't complain. There's only two places I go to that only want cash and that's one my barber and two my LFS, only bargains if cash is involved lol.
 
Yep I brought some cash to pay for stuff but really only used it for food.
Luckily gas in Idaho is $4.09 can't believe I say Luckily to that.
One of the dad's in our Boise group was from Cali and he said diesel is over $10 a gallon???
Yikes.
Ours has made it to $3.99 now.
 
That's crazy!
I also told my wife to rent us a full size car, no bigger.
She said no, we need a suv so we ended up with an expedition which was h3ll to drive through downtown Boise my goodness...

Expeditions are huge!

And I thought $6 was bad

I guess it's a matter of perspective. Compared to crew cab 1 ton pickups, Excursion, and 15 passenger vans I find Expeditions relatively small 😄

Very true but comparing our expedition to my murano its huge 😆

I just ordered strings for my hunting bow. I was told cash, check, or Zelle.
 
I wanna know how they make the $0.09 with no pennies?
If you pay with a card its the $3.99 if you pay cash they round up to the next dollar.
 
I still have a 2000 expedition, runs good, over 300k miles, its small next to my 2500 GMC pickup
I can't remember what year ours is but it has two seats for the back and its big and heavy and loves gas...
