Gander is still dealin

[MallenManson]

The local Gander had a bunch of Bandit, Strike King and Bomber crankbaits on sale.
Got a couple Bomber 4As and a couple Bandit Flat Maxx all for $2.95 a pop.

I can't be the only one who think Gander mountain is far superior to BPS, can I?

[MallenManson]

Ehhhhh...depends on how you rate it.
As far as selection goes, BPS wins hands down. And the web site is much better.
Gander does have a lot of good sales at my local one though. A lot of em unadvertised. Which is why my fishing OCD kicks in, every single time I'm in town.

I walked into the Gander mtn in Fredericksburg while on my trip last week. Just browsing and was able to get a few lures out of the bargin bin for $1.95 each. Or about 60% off. OH YEAH!

Haha. It'd take one heckuva sale to get you to go eh? Seems odd that the nearest is so far away from you.
I'm 30 minutes away from one, yet over 3 hours from BPS or Cabelas.
I'm so glad Gander set up shop here a few years ago!

[cassidyta]

I am not too close to any of the actual stores.
Dicks does not carry any fishing or hunting in southern Cali.

BPS is about 2 hours away and Cabelas is 6 hours from me.

I do all of my shopping on line or through the mom and pop's stores.

I do a ton of my shopping online. Mostly just baits on sale at Gander

[BassinNC]

I'm about an hour and a half to the closest gander so when I go I go prepared.

I love going to gander mountain! Every time I go in there, I buy something. They have great deals. Just last week I found a set of Ardent Smart Cull Tags for $23... they also accept Dicks Sporting Goods coupons... 10 off 25 or 10 off 50.

I'm scared to walk in there during that!

[MallenManson]

Red Eye Shads and Series 3 cranks are down to $1.95.
Grabbed 2 more Red Eyes and a Series 3 plus another Flat Maxx.

I really like Gander Mountain and they do have good deals throughout the year. But I'd like to pass on a warning. Not sure if this is common at other Gander stores or not, but I shop at the one in Merrilville IN. The last three trips I've made to that store, I have bought lures that were on sale. But each time, they tried to charge me the full price of a sale item. I've had to take the counter person to where the sign showed the item on sale. I'm getting rather fed up with that.

[MallenManson]

Good info, although it hasn't happened to me. Ever since I started browsing their red and green tag 1/2 off items a year ago, I've always known what they should be charging me when I check out. So far, no issues.

Ya, depends on what category you're talking about. Sales and stuff, gander wins, otherwise, as far as selection, I think BPS wins, and same with there house items.

As far as sales online, Cabelas hands down.

[Bender]

I went to the local Gander today and they only had a few odd crankbaits on sale, not much of anything else. I was also looking for a frog rod but the only rod in that category was a Mojo and I was looking for something else. They did have 2 Vendetta and 4 Skeet rods.
I did end up buying all of the small Spro crankbaits left, about a dozen. And a new Rapala Max Rap that I wish had been on sale. It looks a lot like an Ima Flit. And a bunch of other small things.

[MallenManson]

There's still some Spros left in Traverse. Wish they'd mark down some frogs

[screwballl]

I stick with BPS and Cabellas... mostly because there is a BPS about 10 minutes away from my house so what I don't find in the store, I order online.

[flippin4it]

A couple of weeks ago I bought a 7:1 Zillion for $169.00 and they also had a Curado 300 DSV for 120.00

[bassinbob]

Keithdog I have the same problem with the local Dick's store with pricing. Dick's and Gander's here are about 5 minutes apart and neither have a great selection of crankbaits except for Rapalas.

[MN Bass Man]

I guess I've been lucky with the Gander here, as far as pricing. Never had something ring up wrong. In fact I've gotten a few great deals, like a new Falcon Cara jig and worm rod for $60, and a new Pflueger Supreme spinning reel for $35.

[MallenManson]

Add 6 Spro Fat Crank 20s to my Gander list
