Fisherman Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Just got next weeks CTC flyer, there's a 1/2 price sale on some ice fishing equipment, including some huts, augers, rods & reels, etc.
irishfield Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 haveda have a peak... is that 1/2 off power augers or hand augers?
Fisherman Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Posted March 13, 2008 They are showing a gas auger in the picture, I can only assume it includes them...
Stoty Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 When does that sale start? I am on their website, but I can only seem to find the current flyer.
bbog Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Sales at CTC usually run from Friday to the following Saturday and are posted online Friday morning.
Stoty Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Oh, right on. Thanks! Looks like I am calling in sick tomorrow then! I need some ice fishing supplies for next year!

Fisherman Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Posted March 13, 2008 Sales at CTC usually run from Friday to the following Saturday and are posted online Friday morning. Just looked at the flyer again, don't be rushin' out there tomorrow, it says, sale starts March 15-21
ccmtcanada Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I work in Advertising for CTC..... Sale start dates vary across the country. It all depends on local newspaper distribution for the flyer as well as what the "norm" is for your area. For instance, if a market has only a Sunday weekly local newspaper, then the sales will normally start on Sunday. Most of Canada starts the sale on Saturdays....however, MOST stores will have the sale set up and the sale prices active on Friday evening.
Stoty Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Is Pickering in the "Start on Friday" category?
bbog Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Is Pickering in the "Start on Friday" category? Rylander store - Yes, Brock store - Maybe (take the flyer with you)

Well dang, learn something new every day, Thanks for the insight.
ketchenany Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I knew that last Monday! but I couldn't say anything There are other great buys too grass trimmer and stainless steel lights for the lawn at very good prices.
Stoty Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Just called the Brock Road store in Pickering, and the guy wasnt very helpful. Said he had no idea whats going on sale, but the flyer for that store starts Saturday morning. I guess I wont be "late for work" tomorrow afterall. Darn!

I didn't want to say as much but the Brock store is rarely helpful - I avoid it as much as possible. The details are now on-line. Those looking for a power auger will be delighted to find the Jiffy model on for $263 (78-8328-0). Trick will be to find one in stock somewhere. A couple manual augers, one ice fishing rod and lots of Plano bags - among other items. Good luck to those hunting for a specific item.
Stoty Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 I called again today, hoping to get a different person, which I did, and he was more than helpful. He said the Brock Road store doesnt have any huts on sale, so if you were planning to go there Saturday morning to get one, dont waste your time.
irishfield Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) Auger shows in stock in Midland/Barrie/Orilla and Wasaga Beach as of the 13th. Toronto stores mostly look like special order... but the Albion Road store shows stock. Has anybody used this 49cc auger??? The 85cc ones are not on sale. Edited March 14, 2008 by irishfield

Seems the only hut on for 1/2 price right now is the Frabill Trekker 2-Man (78-8092-8) $250. http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_...fromSearch=true You'd have to check to see who has one in stock.
Headhunter Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 A good friend of moine works at the post office and he brings home the CTC flyer on the Monday of every week... 4 days before the sales hit and a good 3 -4 days before they arrive in your mail box. Pretty much up on CTC sales every week! HH
irishfield Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) WELL... if you want a power auger... get out of your chair and off to CTC. Sale may start tomorrow... flyer may not be up in the store and the item may be hidden in the back warehouse.... but the cash register is already programmed for the sale! Don't bother with the Midland store... they had one and it now resides in my work shop! Edited March 14, 2008 by irishfield
irishfield Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) I just know the Midland store never has anything once it goes on sale, so thought I'd be pro-active this time. Guess the other side of the coin is you can buy anything presale and bring it back the next day anyhow on the price guarantee for credit. Sucker even started 2nd pull ! Unheard of from what I've seen this winter on most Jiffy's from CTC. I have a pretty darn good inside source, with CTC, if I need it as well... Edited March 14, 2008 by irishfield
steelhedrmatt Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Warden/eglington store had two, well, one left. that was 45 mins ago. I just bought one as well. Their computer also says that there's one at whitby store
ketchenany Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Checked my connection in Bownanville and he's them. I'm trying for numbers.
