Shad_Master Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 There is another thread going on about BPS rewards points and I agree this is an awsome program. Last year I managed to lose a rod/reel combo over the side of the boat just before a big tournament was comming up. My wife was p/o'd because I wanted to get another one, but I had enough rewards points to pay for all but $5 of the cost -- managed to stay out of the doghouse on that one. But does Cabela's have the same kind of program. I went to the store in KC over the Thanksgiving day weekend and tried to sign up for a "rewards card" but it turned out to be a credit card application and I didn't need another one of those so I canceled the app. They gave me some kind of paper card and said that my rewards card would come in the mail, but it never did. Just curious about this 'cause they just opened a store here that is on my way home from work and I could probably rack up lots of points if they do. Quote
Hillbilly_Hooker Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Shad, I don't think Cabelas does have a Rewards program other than the one that's tied to their VISA card. If you don't want their credit card, then I guess they don't want to give up any freebies. Too bad for them, I guess I'll keep shopping at BPS. Regards, Hillbilly Quote
Water Dog Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 I thought the same thing at first but then decided to go with the card. You get points for anything that you buy using the card but a lot more points for items that you buy from Cabela's. Points do add up by utilizing the card for other purchases. The trick is to pay off the card every month to avoid the interest. That takes a little discipline. : So far so Good ;D Cabela's of course has a lot of stuff that we all need and they are good to deal with. They sent me a rod with a nick in it and when I called they sent me a new one and let me keep the old one, no questions asked. That's good business when you are dealing with someone raised the way I was. I'll go back to a company like that, other things being near equal. You do get emails from them with advance sales which has also been helpful. The last thing that I want to do is pay interest on a credit card so we'll see how it goes. Quote
