I have yet to participate in the whole group buy deal. I realize I just missed a reef cleaners group buy. Grr!

Anyone gonna set another one up soon? There are a few things I'd like to order, if shipping could be avoided that'd be great. Only problems is I live very far N. of Austin. Not sure if there is enough interest out where I am to do an order for locals (Kempner, which is outside of Killeen), or would someone in Austin be willing to hold my shipment for me next time a group buy is done?

4 kids, 3 horses, 2 dogs, a Jersey milk cow, a Jersey/Simmental steer who's gonna be dinner, a 40+ flock of chickens, turkeys and peafowl, more cats than I can count, a ball python, house rabbit, cockatiel, 3 dwarf hamsters, 1 pet feeder rat the snake wouldn't eat, 3 freshwater tanks... oh yea... and a 125g softies/LPS reef tank in the making.

I don't keep the zoo, it keeps me!

I would be in on this for sure if we can get enough people in our area to get up to the free shipping.

If we're looking at 2+ weeks out I'd be in.

Liz, I'm in north RR so if you need someone to hold your part of the order I'd be willing. (I know there are others more north who may be willing as well)

As a diver I'm just someone who likes to vacation in the biggest aquarium.

I agree with Gonzobob, I'm in if we can wait 2-3 weeks.
I'll play gofer for the South Austin area if anyone else wants in.

No prob, 2 weeks or so works good for me. Gonzo, thank you for the offer to hold stuff for me. My hubby works in RR and could pick up so that would actually work really good. I read through the basic directions for doing a group buy and it looks simple enough. I'll repost next week and we can see if we can get enough folks together to get 'er done.

I might want a few things in a couple weeks. I am on the north west side of Gtown and could get things a little closer to Kempner or Killeen if it would help.

Ok,

Y'all wanna shoot for around the 5th or 19th of Feb? Either date works good for me so what ever will get the majority.

Muddybluewater, thank you! I'll see which location works out best. Maybe we can narrow down a few drop off points.

Liz,
I'm ready for the group buy when ever you decide to go with it. Figure my order will be about $30-40 toward the free shipping requirement.
As stated, since I work part time- I can act as gofer for any of the south Austin/Bastrop/Kyle area members who want to join in.

I think I would be in on the 19th as well.. not sure how much I'd be in for yet (depends on if I get my tax refund by then).
