Steve,
I got a tip from a fellow reefer who told me to go to Petsmart with the online price of $31.99 printed out so yesterday I went and they offered it. Plus it had a $5 rebate on the pail. It was convient only cause I was in Hyannis anyway and that was where there is a Petsmart I know of. I will keep you in mind as I am always looking to split shipping cost if I order online.
