Default Boxing day sale at the fishing hole??

Is everything on sale in the store? I was looking at buying a tent,heater and flasher. I'm not sure if the flasher would be on sale though. I'll probably buy the heater some where else too.

wow, this one is a little early. but i believe almost everything is on sale. It is their 2nd biggest sale of the year. I think i asked a buddy who works there about this and he said the electronics should be like 10-20 percent at least

It's never to early to talk about great sales.

Really?!! Usually 10% is about max on electronics; I have been told many times by sales people at all the fishing stores that they have very little markup on their electronics inventory (yeah) to start with which is why they don't drop the price much on sales. If there are discounts of 20% or more on fish finders @ TFN Boxing Day sale you can count me in!

I just phoned and talk to Jerry on the south side. He said he has no clue what the deals will be as of yet.

When I worked at the Hole in Stoon , I was told there is very little margin on electronics , thats why you rarely see big sales. The other thought is Lowrance closely regulates their retail prices , forbidding lower pricing. Gas prices aren't fixed either !
