Supporting member discounts

[Dmac]

For some reason I couldn't find this answer in the forums. I know supporting members get a 10% discount on livestock with the sponsors. Does this include coral and clean up crews as well?

At creation reef in Woodstock I think its livestock and seachem products. I think its largely up to the store.

Yeah it's up to the store. So the best bet is to just ask.

To my understanding its livestock only. Drygoods not included. Also depending on the store and the person you speak with are willing to work with you depending on your needs. Bottom line is dont be afraid to ask

Also...Don't forget that on some brand name equipment there is what is referred to as MAP pricing (minimum advertised price). What this shakes out to is the manufacturer has insured his product sells for the same minimum price at any retail outlet.

Good question. ARC sponsors don't pay the club anything. The value they bring the club is primarily in the discount that they offer. The discount is 10% on all livestock/drygoods. Drygoods typically have less of a margin though and we've been lenient with sponsors in determining how to apply that 10% discount to drygoods. Some do... some don't.

Also, please keep in mind that any items on "sale" are exempt from the discount although many of the stores will still give you the 10% on top of that.
