anyone know of any LFS having a labor day sale?

i also did buy my test kits. API salt water master test kit and reef master. i read reviews stating that they are fairly good. but i would still have to get a different test kit for MG. I'll try Elos MG when i'm ready for SPS.
I think for my initial staging i'll be starting with my zoa and ric...
