IO from Petsmart with online print-out is the absolute best deal I've ever found. I hope they don't ever catch on and stop matching the online price.

The online ad appears to have a disclaimer that notes that the store price may be different thant the online price. It appears they "caught on".

Nope. It's said that for a while now. They've never charged me more than the price listed.

If you want to use IO yeah thats the best deal, personally, it was the first salt i ever used, i hated the way it mixed and never went back to it. It always amazes me how many people use IO for a reef? I mean public aquariums using it for those huge systems cause its cheap I understand, but I just cant wait for it to mix, all the other salts i use mix in seconds not hours.

Wait, whats that say in your signature Reefkoi? haha just kidding but arent you supposed to wait for at least 24 hours after mixing before adding it to your tank? i just mix it with an extra powerhead for that time and it works perfectly

I was told by someone at Petsmart that Petsmart.com is not affiliated with Petsmart. Petsmart lets Petsmart.com use the name and they will honor their prices. I've bought 4 buckets in the last year with this deal and plan to buy many more.
I've noticed that the buckets at Petco offer the "free t-shirt" but the ones at Petsmart are just regular ones. Petco honored the Petsmart ad last weekend which was a first for me. I'm sure the t-shirt is probably lousy but what the heck.
