    we are postponing a week for the group buy.  incase you haven't read on the orginal post.  I am also opening this up for more order as well.  The cut off time will be Sunday the 14th.  Sorry for any inconveniences.
    As for now we are looking at Delievery being the 18th but this is Iowa so we could have Tsunami between now and then

    you order through them, just tell them you want to be in the DM group buy, and you pay them as well.

    It would be nice if maybe someone who was in the buy from Des Moines could allow us to gather at their place for pickup...maybe?? I don't really want to step on any toes at IA Seascapes.

    Or meet at another location right off the interstate. Maybe the Quicktrip on 14th? or something like that. Have any ideas what time we will meet?

    yeah i know i dont want to step on any toes either...and with the quicktrip thing...i could see the cops getting called with as many people we are going to be dealing with haha.......anyone got any problems with Big Earls??? its off 80 haha j/k how bout we do this, Menards on Hickman at 6. if you can't make it at that time let me know i will be in town for a bit prolly and can kill time doing other things but i think the menards will be the best place....big parking lot easy to find.

    So Thursday, Feb. 18th 6pm at Menards on Hickman.

    You guys are welcome to meet at my office at that time. Would a lot easier than trying to do things in a parking lot.

    Menards it is. So, what shady group am I looking for for the "deal" to go down? A certain corner of the parking lot? Man, it always feels like a drug deal going down. Would be a little funny to have the cops come blazing in only to find some bags of zoanthids and "shrooms" in my possession.
