Super User FishTank Posted February 25, 2008 Super User Posted February 25, 2008 It has been a few years since I've been to one of these and to tell the truth I never find much of anything, until today. Today was the last day of the show. Here is a list of some of the deals I would have come home with if the wife didn't have the debit card to go shopping. 1) Shimano Curado of my choice and a Falcon LowRider of my choice: $200-$50 rebate=$150 2) Quantum Energy Baitcaster $105 3) G. Loomis BCFR863 GLX and one of the following reels: Shimano Chronarch MG 51, Daiwa Zillion, or Abu Garcia Revo Premier; $500 4)G. Loomis MBR784 GLX or MBR843 and one of the reels listed above: $400 If I bought the Revo, the rep had a bag filled with a bunch of Berkley stuff that had to come up to about $100-$150, for free. It was just left over giveaways. It had 3 spools of Trilene Professional Fluorcarbon, I don't now how many bags of Powerbait and Gulp, a hat, and I think a rain jacket. Bottomline, I'm going next time with some cash (if I have it) and try to hunt down some of these same deals. I was totally bumbed. :'( Quote
Super User burleytog Posted February 25, 2008 Super User Posted February 25, 2008 Who the hell has only one debit card? :-? :-X Quote
Super User FishTank Posted February 25, 2008 Author Super User Posted February 25, 2008 Who the hell has only one debit card? :-? :-X The bank we belong to only issues one card per account. She usually takes the check book and I get the debit but in this case I gave her the debit to stop and get gas and groceries. I didn't think I'd find anything. I just wanted to take my son to see the boats, the fishing pros, and Twiggy the skiing squirrel. : Quote
Super User burleytog Posted February 25, 2008 Super User Posted February 25, 2008 JMO, but I'd be finding a new bank. :-X Quote
Cajun1977 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 JMO, but I'd be finding a new bank. :-X no doubt Quote
Super User FishTank Posted February 25, 2008 Author Super User Posted February 25, 2008 JMO, but I'd be finding a new bank. :-X no doubt You got that right. The bank we go to just got bought by MI Bank and they stink. They charge you for everything under the sun, including a service fee every month for just having a savings account with no interest. We are able to keep the free checking but only one debit card. Quote
Redsyn Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 OMG!!!! Deal #4 is basically buying a GLX at regular price but they throw in a Chronarch mg or daiwa zillion for free. I feel so bad for you :'( Quote
fatmanslim247 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 ya, well i had money in my pocket, bought a fenwick rod for 59 percent off, and got some real good deals on a bunch of plastics Quote
Super User FishTank Posted February 25, 2008 Author Super User Posted February 25, 2008 I'm still yelling at my wife for not answering her phone yesterday. The BCFR863 is $440 rod. It's quite a monster and super light weight to boot. I keep telling the baitmonkey to make these deals in my head go away but it is sort of like that first monster bass that gets away and all that is left is the story. Quote
