You know what I'm doing on Black Friday? Heading to the range! (We think alike, whtsmoke.)
Remember Walmart honors coupons. Yes, I know they say they don't do Black Friday ones, but some do..or don't care about the rule at 11AM when they were working since 6 PM (and best is the store is empty too) and that's how I got a 100 rounds of 45 ACP for $17.99 last year!
I personally view Black Friday thus:
Calculate the money you "saved" and compare that by the number of hours you spent acquiring it times what you make an hour. I am willing to be the hassle and time spent getting the "deals" doesn't equal what you would had made working for that time, and work IMHO is way less stressful. I actually multiply time by 3 times my hourly rate because I feel that is more representative of what would be fair compensation to deal with a mob but maybe that's just me.
Thanks for this one, i think i might drop in at SA tomorrow to check this one out!Sports Authority is doing a "Pre Black Friday Sale" on pretty much everything. You buy now, pick up Saturday or Sunday. Just picked up a combo deal on a Mossberg ATR .243 w/ Barska 3-9x scope for $299.
Yes, it was for me too. I Ruger 10/22 I was half expecting a cavity search and to sign a pledge to personally indemify the store for all eternity. And I was walked outside, store policy of som nonsense with a 10/22!Buying a gun a Dicks is the worst experience I've ever had buying a gun.
Agreed. I got a Marlin 795 at Dick's when they had the rebate, and got the rifle for about $100 not counting tax. Felt like I was being tossed out of the store. And the check! I have a CCW, and they STILL had to call it in, and it took 20 minutes...even though with a CCW at any LGS you are good to go in NC.Yes, it was for me too.

I can't stand Dicks. I am a legal permanent resident (green card holder). I have a CC Permit, pay taxes, am protected by the Constitution, etc etc.Yes, it was for me too.

HOWEVER, i cannot buy ammo at Dicks.. They only sell ammo to Citizens..
Yeah and guess who still isn't buying ammo (or anything else) at dicks after he pledges Allegiance to the Flag and becomes a Citizen?That is annoying. I hate how you have to click that box before swiping a credit card, and always wonder, if you were some terrorist here illegally, would you really be afraid to just lie? But of course, just like every other "control" law, it isn't the criminals that suffer but law-abiding non-citizens such as yourself get screwed.
