Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 I wonder if they are going to close the one here in Lexington KY? Is so that just leaves dicks and 2 1/2 hrs to BPS Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 The ONLY good thing to this is the great sales that they will run! The bait monkey will be happy! Quote
Branuss04 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 They are closing 23 stores out of 67 stores! :'( I"m crossing my fingers that they close down our Sportsmens.... besides the hot girls that work there, they are pretty much useless. Quote
IDbasser Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 They are closing 2 stores in Idaho, but the one closest to me is going to stay open. There will be one within 45 min and another one 1 1/2 hours away. The ones that are an hour and 2 hours away will be closed. Quote
Super User Gone_Phishin Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 They are closing 23 stores out of 67 stores! :'( Any word on the one in New Berlin? Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 They are closing 23 stores out of 67 stores! :'( Any word on the one in New Berlin? Yes, the store in New Berlin is closing too! :'( :'( It is in todays paper 30% off of everything! Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 Two new stores in the Memphis metro, both appeared to be very successful, both are closing. Quote
tyrius. Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Two new stores in the Memphis metro, both appeared to be very successful, both are closing. That's lame!! I travel to Memphis for work a few times a year and went to both of them when I was there to see what deals they had. Now I'll only have BPS to visit, which isn't nearly as good as Sportsman's Warehouse. Quote
Super User grimlin Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 We lost ours early last year...I was sad.They were the only place carrying some lures i couldn't find anywhere else(except online). Quote

Olebiker Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 They may as well close the one here in Tallahassee. Their merchandise selection is ptitful. Quote
bumfish Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 The stores in Oregon, Washington and Idaho are being sold to a Farmers Co-op in Alberta. They will stay open but will come under new management and change the name. http://www.newwest.net/topic/article/sportsmans_warehouse_closing_23_stores/C41/L41/ Quote
Super User burleytog Posted March 13, 2009 Super User Posted March 13, 2009 Yep, closing the one here in Roanoke Va too. Hopefully Gander Mtn won't fold up. That's a shame as SW was like BPS to GM's WalMart. GM's prices are ;Dable. Quote
shaw24 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Well that sucks!!!! I loved going to that store...they have a very nice fishing section. Have they even been open 2 years yet? Thats also where I would go when my wife was shopping at the mall! Quote
bigmountaineer Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I've never visted one of these, but Dick's is a crappy alternative. Only thing I've ever found there was PFlueger on sale. Good luck with BPS being 2 1/2 hours away. Buy online with free shipping. Quote
mrbassky Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I wonder if they are going to close the one here in Lexington KY? Is so that just leaves dicks and 2 1/2 hrs to BPS I live in Winchester and I hope they stay open but I wouldnt mind a big sale either. ;D Word on their site is the Lexington store isnt one getting closed. Here is the list of stores that may get closed. http://www.sportsmanswarehouse.com/company.cfm Quote
