A New Tank

I had a customer come into the store today, who was looking to buy a new tank because his had started leaking earlier that day.

To the point where the guy had to leave work early because his wife called basically saying "IT'S LEAKING!" So he drove straight over from work to try and find a tank of similar size and shape for a good price to replace his broken one.

Which it was a good day to come look at tanks since we had some on sale today due to the holiday.

And the dude was looking to get our 36 gallon bowfront tank. 

But was concerned because the tank was like an inch too wide for his current stand.

And he was wondering if he could still have the tank on said stand or if the inch difference would cause problems.

Which I had no idea.

It probably wouldn't.

But it's hard to know with tanks and their stands.

But then I remembered we also had a 36 tank/stand combo that was also on sale.

Funnily enough it was the same price as the 36 tank kit.

So it was like the customer could buy the tank with all the filters/heaters/etc included in it.

Or buy the tank/stand/lights for the same price.

And the dude was like !!!

Because he already had all the stuff for the tank. He just needed a new tank.

And to have a new tank come with a stand that would fit it.

He was sold then and there.

So I loaded up our last one in the store for him to take home.

So that was nice. Being able to get the customer more than they expected.
