Silly games. 2L of Excel is $18.95 US on the US website (that's
$23.77 CAD) but it's $48 in the store and on the Canadian website.

If they price-match + 5% the MOPS price it's still $37.

Silly games.




silly games?. Check for the same product at another local Canadian store
such as Petland or Petcetera and it will likely be about the same price as
Big Al's Canadian retail stores. It is simply marketing. In order not to
compete with themselves they price the product in Canada at what ever the
market will support and close to what other Canadian stores sell the same
product for. This is not limited to aquarium supplies and is amplifiable to
many other products and the reason that many hobbyists get together and
order in bulk from Jehmco or Kens Fish , Pet Solutions etc.
