joeparishfishing Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Same here in Fort Mill, SC (near Charlotte, NC). It was basically BPS Lite. But I have a friend working there who gave me his 20% discount at a pre-Grand Opening Sale. I still managed to spend $200. Yea i live 45 min north of charlotte and drove bown to that cabelas wasnt impressed at all. 1 Quote
kcdinkerz Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Yeah it's handy to have a cabelas near by but for the prices I'd rather shop at tackle warehouse Quote
BassThumb Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I'm so glad to have a Cabela's close by! Love the place! I use the "ship to store" option when internet shopping to save a few bucks. No BPS in my area and Gander is more expensive. New Dick's nearby but it's worthless. I don't do Walmart. Have a couple really good independents (Capra's and Thorne Bros.) close by that actually get most of my business. Yep, those locals are excellent. I shop there or go online to TW. Quote
Super User tomustang Posted September 17, 2015 Super User Posted September 17, 2015 Same here in Fort Mill, SC (near Charlotte, NC).. Seems like I'll bypass that one, who am I kidding I'll still stop in 1 Quote
Super User Sam Posted September 17, 2015 Super User Posted September 17, 2015 We are getting a "Cabela's Light" in Richmond, Virginia in the near future. It will not be a large Cabela's store but a scaled down version. We have Bass Pro Shops, Green Top and Dick's and now Cabela's enters the Richmond market. Throw in the other local tackle shops and you can find just about any "standard and high turnover" baits you want. There are so many things the box stores cannot offer due to space limitations so we still have to look at Senko Lover's Tackle Warehouse and other on-line outlets. Quote
Super User the reel ess Posted September 17, 2015 Super User Posted September 17, 2015 Seems like I'll bypass that one, who am I kidding I'll still stop in It's worth a look. I still found plenty to spend my $$$ on. Quote
Arobb2012 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I haven't been to the Cincinnati cabela's yet but have heard from multiple people that it is disappointing. They are putting a store in Centerville, I hope it is decent since dsg I go to is a let down when looking for a specific lure or color. Quote
Joe. Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Always enjoy going to Cabela's, but I never, ever leave with anything. Prices are astronomical, you can save at least 10 bucks even on small stuff buy just going through Amazon, but you cannot beat going to a store and actually being able to see the products. Field and Stream is nice but not quite worth the drive (at least, not regularly) because my local store was essentially just Dicks with a few more camo jackets, and it was very similar to Cabelas in that the clothing was all very high priced ($250 for a coat) The BPS near me was underwhelming. Gander Mountains is nothing special, but it is nice to have all these options in case you're searching for something specific. Quote
