Only one arrived, the 7 footer. Long rectangle box.  Not even a dent in it.  I was shocked.  Rod was perfect and can’t wait to use it.  Luck I guess.  7’4” arrives tomorrow.

May the odds be ever in your favor...

Academy has the Military and First Responder 10% off discount back until the 11th.

This doesn't look good.  Package is stuck 20 miles from me, label unreadable?  That sounds like the package got mangled.  50/50 if so.  First one good, second one bad?

Only for locals I guess so probably not much help to anyone. Just couldn't help but post it.

Just as I'm in the process of making my first crankbait. But I'm using my shop compressor so I don't need this.

Testors Aztec airbrush compressor at a salvage store called Mardens in Sanford Maine. About a dozen of them continually marked down from $190...... to $29.95. New...no damage, in the box.

Ironic that their Megabass stuff is excluded (or so it seems...haven't checked every lure), yet the code is Mega20.

I’ve never ordered during one of their sales, is the discount still applicable to excluded items like TW does? Not expecting megabass of course 

[NorcalBassin]

They used to include a "call for deals too good to advertise" statement in their sales that would give you the discount on everything except Megabass, but I'm not sure if their website will do it on its own like TW does.

I tried it on a Daiwa reel and a couple of Megabass lures and it did not work either one.  I guess I will wait for Tackle Warehouse's sale.

The package is arriving today, I will report out when the package gets here.

The final package arrived today, several days late due to mangled address on the package.  The box was pretty hammered.  A few holes in it too.  I asked the UPS driver to wait while I checked the contents (if it was bad I was going to refuse shipment).  Turns out the rod was wrapped with massive amounts of paper and was in perfect condition.  I guess I lucked out.  Super nice frog rod bye the way!

Scored a Daiwa Tatula 7' 2" Spinning Rod for $71.00 from Dick's plus $10 for shipping.

High end casting reels are hard to find on sale

You talking like in the Chronarch/Metanium/Steez/Zillion level of high end?  Yeah - but there are deals to be had - might have to wait for a 20% off sale at one of the bigger online places, TW,ALF, Sportsman Outfitters.  Many times even if their discount code isn't "supposed" to work with some of those brands, a call to Customer Service playing dumb will get it done.  

[Clemson_John]

Left handed Penn Fathom II Levelwind Reel for $89.96.  Looks like the normal price is around $220.

Do you have any local tackle shops that carry high end stuff? USUALLY they will give you 20-30% off if you simply ask for it. The more expensive the reel, the bigger margin they have to work with. If you buy more than one, the bigger the discount can get. They love repeat customers who buy high end gear. 

 

I'm not talking Academy or BPS, I mean a local mom & pop shop.

Hey guys. I'm looking to buy some Simm's Challenger bibs and jacket (non-insulated) in the black color. Right now I'm seeing the bibs online for 20% off.

 

With Black Friday coming (or even sooner), I'd appreciate it if anyone could give me a heads-up if they happen upon a better deal somewhere. Thanks!

A few weeks ago they had the transom bibs on sale for 159.97- I picked the bibs up at that price from Simm's.  I know Simm's was cycling through their older models.  Not sure if the challengers will go on sale like that but they probably will go cheaper than 20% off as I see that quite commonly from Simm's.  Not sure what they normally do on BF/CM.

That's what it's been in years past - certain brands are excluded because of pricing policies.

In my experience the only brand truly "excluded" is Megabass and the discount is reflected on the final invoice for everything else.
