We got one here a little less than a year ago and I didn't go for a while, but one of my coworkers said he went and started finding good deals on some outdoors and shooting stuff so I went.  I've got so many good deals on fishing lures, like $.50 - $1 for $6-8 lures, plus quite a few other good deals.  I recently found some butler creek flip open scope caps for $1 and snagged 3 or 4, despite the fact that they don't look like they'll fit any of my scopes  :haha:  Another of my good finds were uncle mike's detachable sling swivels for $2, snagged another 2 or 3 of them.

Today took the cake though.  I was poking around the horribly unorganized sporting goods isle and saw this Carolina Archery Systems arrow rest just laying on the shelf, no box, no price tag, just the rest.  I snagged it, looked around and found a set of bushnell .22/airgun scope rings and sound deadening/magnifying ear plugs and walked to the front.  I thought it was missing part of the mount and figured somebody stole it, so I was guessing they'd sell it pretty cheap.  When I got to the front I told the girl at the register I was interested in it but thought it might be missing parts, she asked what it was then went and asked the manager, came back and told me 50 cents  :yikes: 

Ofcourse I said yes, came home and checked and everything was there!  This site shows it going for $40, but another site had it at $32, but either way I may as well have stolen it!  I try to go to that place once a week, but will go every time I'm in town cause they put out new stuff almost every day.  They get their stuff from a few different places, but for the most part it seems they get it from fred meyer and trader joe's.

Nope, it's an outlet for fred meyer's, trader joe's and whatever other stores they're affiliated with.  If it were a mom and pop store I'd probably tell them when their prices were too low!

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
