I can't be the only one

So the other day i went to my lfs to buy a cool / exciting frag - coral .. ( he was empty on the selection , pretty boring stuff ) but i felt i had to buy something, couldn't leave empty handed.
I walked out of there with a clove coral rock ( not what i really had in mind ) - anybody out there beside me doing the same thing, can't leave empty handed.

Haha dont worry! YOu're not the only one. I tend to do that, especially if I know the employee that is working and if I talk to them for a while

I do this too, then get home and ask my self why did i buy this?

Yup, I do this as well. Especially places that are far away. Most of the stuff is either not to my taste or if they are they are very expensive. I end up shelling out more than I want, just because of the distance I drove. :squigglemouth:

Haha I do the exact same thing. Your not alone at all. When I have a long stressful day at work Ill make a wish list of things I would like to get for my tank (fish, coral, equipment) head over to the closest store buy just to ease my stress :)

I can't imagine that there's anyone here who doesn't do this. We've got a new LFS here and they're small acro, chalice, hydnophora, zoas, etc... are all under $20! It's too hard to say no to coral at that price! It's a brilliant idea as it keeps your customers coming back. I've yet to leave empty handed.
