So if you looked in last week's Dick's flyer you noticed that Remington STS was on sale for $7 a box (which seemed like a fair price). Below that, they had Remington "Game and Target", regularly $5.99, for $3.98 when you purchased a case. The two deals together got me in the store.
I asked the clerk to help me find the shells that were on sale because there were no signs. After zapping box and box and not finding them, another employee came back from break and instantly told us the story on the cheap shells;
"It's the boxes on the bottom shelf; they are 20rds to a box and downloaded on lead" (meaning 12ga was 7/8oz, 20ga was 3/4oz).
Well, I was a little miffed. 20rds? The clerk thought it was still an ok deal, pointing out that 100rds (5 boxes) would cost $20 where-as the regular full load Remington 100rd pack is $26. Have you seen these 20rd boxes? What do you guys think of advertising these and not indicating they are smaller than regular boxes?
