I was going to include this in the Bud's 180 Day Layaway thread but thought better of it. Since it isn't Bud's and it isn't Layaway.
Got an invitation in the mail the other day from Cabela's for an after hours party at the Columbus, Ohio location. Having family down in Columbus we do shop there.
We do a good bit of our Christmas shopping at Cabela's and use the Cabela's credit cards often to accumulate Cabela's bucks. In our case we also pay the card in full every billing period. Anyway the invite says Friday, November 23, 2014. I called with a few questions starting with November 23rd is a Sunday on my calendar and yes, it's Sunday November 23rd 7:30 to 10:30 PM. They are offering their Employee discount which can be a good deal. However, the employee discount only applies when using your Cabela's Club Visa.
I also asked about if I purchase things online or phone and have items shipped to the store if I pick up on Sunday during the after hours party can I get the discount? The answer was absolutely yes, so I am good with that. Long as I put the purchases on my card which is what I would do anyway. I can't use any of my Cabela's bucks but I am fine with that also.
Got to thinking about this and this is, of course a win/win for Cabela's especially in the case of those who don't pay the card statement in full upon receipt. Additionally even when offering the employee discount they still make a buck on the merchandise.
Anyone else gotten one of these invites? Going to take any advantage of it? I want to get some stuff ordered and shipped to the Columbus store for pickup.
