Well, waaaah!
Gart Sporting goods had an advertisement in the paper yesterday. Winchester white box 9mm for $4.49 a box. So that woulda made a case of the stuff $89.80…and then there was a $10 off coupon for a purchase over $50….so the $89.80 becomes $79.80…so, when all is said and done that woulda been $3.99 a box. Needless to say, I was all up for getting a case or ten.
Sold. Out.
Grrrrr! Probably to a buncha weasels who were just gonna re-sell it at a gun show. Dammit, dont these people know who I am? What Im preparing for? How much 9mm my girlfriend can go through in a day!?!?!
Bah.
Not a total wipeout though….OEM Glock mags for her G26 were $8.97 ea. so she got two spares. A small, hollow, empty victory…but a victory nonetheless.
$3.99 a box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO they wouldnt substitute. NO they wont give rain checks. NO this price wont be good when they get more.
Too slow, Commander, too slow.
WWB 9mm is $4.86/box everyday at the local Academy. Their Blazer is a dollar cheaper, but I figure ~$97 for a case of WWB is good enough for me. Hell, that’s cheaper than the big-name mail-order outfits and their Wolf steel-cased stuff.
Getting “Bait and Switched/Limited Supplies” sucks. If I think it was done to often I’ll boycott and then tell the CEO. That prolly won’t solve the problem but it makes think I’m doing something… Well yes, I AM a moron. 🙂
