Dutch01 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Came across a deal I couldn't refuse today; I don't know if float tubing is for me but for $70 I'm willing to find out! Here she is at home: I'm excited to try it out next spring. Canadian Tire now has their in store clearance inventory online. I also got 50% off a new bbq today! I had to go to two stores but well worth it. Happy shopping! (Hint: check a few local stores, each store has different pricing). Edited November 20, 2016 by Dutch01
misfish Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 Well let me be the first to say, you SCORED. This was my first float boat. I loved it. You will need a set of flippers now. Then comes the mods to add a finder. Then comes the, this is good, but now I want something bigger. Then you are now into a toon. More mods to be had. Enjoy Dutch.

I can see it already - I saved on the float but I'll spend it all back and more on mods/upgrades. Hmmmm....I've already got a portable finder...... and so it begins!
Fisherpete Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 Sweet find! I've been tempted to grab one of those and have carp take me for a tow at the cottage
limeyangler Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 HOLY….SCORRRRRRE! That's awesome, wanted to take one of those to Antigua and leave it at my brother in laws for exploring every winter. ENJOY!
GBW Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 and that's how I went home with a Pflueger Patriarch when I went in to get my daughter a new Fenwick HMX
Old Ironmaker Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 Score? Ya think? The air to fill it costs 70 bucks. Happy treading.
Dutch01 Posted November 20, 2016 Author Report Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) I almost forgot, on Friday I also got a 28" Abu Garcia Veritas 2.0 ML ice rod & reel combo for $24 at CTC. I already have one and like it. That's what got me poking around on their site for clearance items in the first place. Edited November 20, 2016 by Dutch01

That's what got me poking around on their site for clearance items in the first place. You didn't see my post telling people to hunt the clearance section of the site? I got my reel, rod and a spool of line for $200 and the bill said I saved $200!
SirCranksalot Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 I bought a float suit a few days ago with a 60% price reduction. When I was in the store I notice a combo with 2 berkley ice rods and reel cc/w a 50 yd spool of Micro Ice and a 50 yd spool of 'Coldwater' mono. The price marked was around $25, but on-line it was listed at $18. Without going into cognitive overdrive I chose the lower of the 2 prices. The spools of line are listed at $14 and $7.50, totaling up to $21.50. So I'm not getting the rods and reels for cheap or free, they are paying me to take them!!I tried posting a link but now they have none left they are selling them for $50!!!
GBW Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 sonar's and allmost all summer fishing items are being cleared out so they don't have to 'pay to hold them'
porkpie Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Buddy and I bought 2 helix 5 sonar/GPS for $234 plus tax each. Will make a nice upgrade to the 385 I use for ice fishing. Almost had a 55lb thrust Minn Kota I pilot unit for $550 plus tax. Was going to buy as a backup, I just couldn't resist the price. The order went through but they cancelled it after spending 40 minutes searching for the unit. Spoke to them on the phone and they stated it appeared to be ghost inventory, too bad, that would've been the deal of the century. I did also get a new float coat for $100.

porkpie Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) There's only 2 left now. Act fast on a screaming deal. I was tempted to be a jerk and buy all 3 and resell, but there are only so many hours in the day lol. Thanks for the tip! Edited November 20, 2016 by porkpie

Dutch01 Posted November 20, 2016 Author Report Posted November 20, 2016 in fact they show 3 units avail. That's a steal right there. Both items I bought today were not out on the shelves. The BBQ was put away "upstairs", thank you to the kids who spent 20 minutes finding it for me. The float tube was actually at the bottom of a shrink wrapped skid being wheeled into the back. I hollered at the kids to stop. He said he just built the skid and wrapped it, I told him "looks like you'll be doing it twice".
misfish Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 I have my finder holder that I made Dutch. Rotates 180 deg. No use to me now. Yours if you want it. Just straps on with a 1" quick strap.
aplumma Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 You don't have to wait till spring take it tubing down the hill. Nice tube at a great price. Art
porkpie Posted November 20, 2016 Report Posted November 20, 2016 Did you need me to pick one up for you for did you get one? Thank you for the offer. I bought it online and they will confirm the order once they find it (usually get an email next day). If I can't make it out in a timely fashion I'll let you know!

GBW Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 But each store is different Rick for deals. It's all based on clearing out stock to not have to wrap it up for 6 months or so
