Went to Bass Pro !! Boxing Day Report

[Entropy]

I was there at 6:50am, to get in line. There were already 4 guys waiting. 20 seconds after I got in line there were another 15 guys getting into line.

 

By 8:00am (opening) there had to be at least 300 people lined up; around the corner and out of sight.

 

Many of the guys near the front of the line that I talked to were there to buy the 50 cal muzzle loader that was on sale.

 

At 8:00 when the doors opened the guys in front of me “moved quickly” through the turnstile – so did I. Then once in the aisle they began to jog to the gun counter – so did I. Then from the cornor of my eye I saw more people running to the counter, I yelled at the guys in front of me to “RUN” – They did! And so did I !!

 

I could not believe I was running – flat out – through a store on Boxing Day to buy an item on sale, but I did!

 

I was number 5 in line and got one of the 8 or so 50 cal. But, it was not until 9:20 that I was able to walk away with the box in arm, paid and registered.

 

They only had about a total of 24 50cal and 45cal on sale. The other 100 or so guys lined up at the gun counter were out of luck.

 

That was an experience.

Typical of Basspro to have a huge sale and only a few of the items to actually sell to people. Happens every flyer they put out.
