A few days ago the Cabelas flyer comes to the house...I scan it for goodies and 2 are selected.
About 2 days ago, I go by there and look at the HD chairs (rated at over 300#) and XL sleeping bags (38-42" wide).
I pick out 2 chairs that will work and then move over to the "Fart-Sacks" I notice that they don't really have what I'm looking for there.
Then, it occurs to me...I don't have my $25 gift card w/me.
So, I make a decision to go check out prices at other places, and then come back w/my card (which is already a few years old).
Now, I aint saying that I am cheap, but when you look up "Cheap-Bassturd" in the dictionary, they have my picture there.
So, I go by Sportsman's...they have the same chair (as near as I can tell, based on memory) for $30 (10 bucks less and sorta the same bag (a Browning vs a canvas type a C's) for about 30 bucks less (these are the everyday price). The chairs are $20 cheaper as of tomorrow.
Then, I go to Wally-world...Coleman makes an extra-large bag, for about the same price and they didn't have the big chairs.
So, tonight is the last day of the sale...and I show up w/tons of time to spare (about 8:35p,). I go to the chairs...what the heck...no sale pricing. So, I go to the front door...no fliers up there...I go to the register. She scrounges around and finds one...yep the sale is still on. She explains that the stuff has been pulled because there is a sale starting tomorrow. I explain that there is a sale going on now.
So, armed w/a picture, I head back to the chairs. I am pretty sure that I have picked out the right ones, but I think that they may have moved them. So, I make my selection, but the tag number does not match the flyer...then I notice that the box's number doesn't match either one. Additionally, the tag says one poundage rating, and the box says another. The picture...it looks like the same chair, but the accessories (cup holder and etc) are dif. That said, the picture also looks like 2 other chairs that they have. As this is going on, I am sorta hoping somebody will help me.
But, I notice that it is not Christmas time in the store but Easter (The time when Jesus was born versus the time when the dead came out of the grave to see the resurrected Jesus) as the workers are obviously thinking about getting out of there at resurrection/closing time.
Disgusted, I decide to get something else w/the $25 card (hard to do in there). So, I am in there for just over 20 minutes and not once did somebody ask to help me. One guy spoke to me...but only after I acknowledged him first. He was trying to ole....if I look away, when we pass, I won't have to say anything (we were on a collision course in the aisle).
