I stopped at crossroads on monday and i didnt see the old man thats usually in there but the same lady was. There was also a new guy there that got the minnows and if i had looked at them before i left the store i would have gave them back. i have been getting minnows there for last 3 years, sometimes 3 times a week, mainley because their minnows are usually bigger than anywhere else around there. I always get at least 100, at the very least. monday i asked for 100, got to the lake and had maybe 50. I feel your pain, not only got screwed but had to leave the lake to go get more, which cut into my fishing time. THEY GOT THEIR LAST DOLLAR FROM ME AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!! dont know where the old man was. and the price did go up too..... go figure.
