Deal Alert! Hooks @ Wal-Mart

[AStallings]

Not sure if this is the place to post this. Mods please move it if not.

My local Wal-Mart had the Gamakatsu 4/0 Extra Wide Gap hooks on clearance, they were marked as being $2/pack, which was a pretty good deal, but when checking out they actually rang up as .99/pack. Needless to say I told the girl I'd be right back and ran back to the fishing section and grabbed every pack they had  . They also had some Mustad EWG's for .75/pack, but there were only 2 packs left.

The Gammy's were on the isle with the rest with the rest of them, with a red sticker instead of yellow and the Mustads were over on the sporting goods clearance isle.

Hooks are one of the few things you never see on sale anywhere too. I've got to go right past another Wally World this afternoon (a super one), thinking about stopping by to see if they have any there. Hoping to find more of those Mustad hooks in standard offset (which I'm getting low on). Seemed like they must have been clearing out the entire brand bc those 2 packs left in clearance were the only Mustads in the whole store.

GL to you guys finding them at your local stores  8-)

It's no go at my local Wal Mart. I hope others find them on special.

.... did they have the Gammy 4/0 Widegaps at all? It seemed so random/weird that one specific hook was the only Gammy one on clearance  :-/.

I'll let y'all know what I find at the Super Wally World this afternoon.

Isn't each Wal-Mart's fishing department managed independently?  The differing Wal-mart's that I've been too have always had differing amounts and types of fishing tackle and clearence items.

That said I got a bunch of Gammy hooks last fall on clearence too.  Too bad I got the actual clearence price of like 2.12 and not .99!

Not sure, I do remember a thread from a few weeks ago about those huge Okeechobee bags they had on clearance and everyone was finding it on clearance at their local Wal Marts. Did a quick google search on this but didn't really find anything. The first result was a thread from another fishing forum where this guy says he walked into a Wal Mart one year and found every single Rapala in the store on sale for $1. He says he tipped the board over and used a snow shovel to scoop them zll off the floor into his cart ;D

Yes, the Sporting Goods section is location specific.  Clearance sales depend on what is selling and what isn't.

That said, I spent over $200 on Owner hooks back in February.  Cleaned out every WM within a 150 mile radius.

They're managed independently as far as clearance goes.  I got a Husky Jerk (6" I think) for .99 earlier this summer, last one on the rack.  Went to another Walmart a few miles down the road and they were $6.
