Knowing Gouger mountain, the Forest Lake store will have extra quantities of everything and the Blaine store will have nothing......

Nope that says 119.99 each for a total of 239.98 if you bought two boxes, that is the $50 savings.

Still a little high in price but getting a lot closer to buying from bulk online retailers

Guess my eyes aren't that good. Sure look like 50 ct boxes but I'll take your word for it because that makes more sense.

It's all cool. The art work does look like 50ct boxes. the quantity counts behind 9mm, 40SW, 45ACP is what finally tipped me off.

you can click some of the individual deals for a better transcribed description

I'll let you guys camp out at Gander Mountain for the black Friday deals. When you leave it'll be like Brokeback Mountain, but not in the gay way...in the broke way.

Was in the Bemidji area last Friday with nothing to do since I had woken at 4:30 am because I could not sleep, a whole other story, so I went to Gander Mountain for their 6 am sale for the deer hunters. They were giving away a stainless insulated beverage container to the first 100 and a Swiss Mini Multi Tool to the first 25 to purchase something. A woman in front of me was explaining to her husband that she knew what she was purchasing and when the doors opened at 6 am, she grabbed her insulated cup and a candy bar to take to checkout and get her free Swiss Mini Multi Tool. I got to Gander at a few minutes before 6 am and was the 16th in line, when doors opened there were 21 people in line. I was looking for a certain style of sun glasses that Gander carried, found several racks of glasses, found what I wanted on the 3rd rack, also used the bathroom and when I checked out almost a half hour later I was one of those that got a free Swiss Mini Multi tool.

How does the Bemidji Gander Mountain even stay in business? In Bemidji and some other area towns there is a L&M Fleet Store, they are always packed, deals that even beats Walmart's sales by several dollars.

Hmm, looking at that flier, I can honestly say I don't see one actual deal in that sea of 'sales'. The best ammo deal works out to 27cents/rd+tax for 9mm, not a bargain at today's prices. Ammoseek shows the exact same ammo starting at 22cents/rd.
In term's of firearms, fleet farm's everyday prices are better than most of these sale prices, and anyone elses' sales are %10-15 cheaper than that. And thats not even looking at the online discount places like psa and bud's.

How can they justify selling a $139 mosin (ff regular price) for $150, and call it a $50 off 'sale'. Or the savage .22 on the front page on "lowest price ever! SALE" for 149.99; fleetfarm regular price 144.99, on sale for 139.99 right now.

In short, F**K Gander Mountain.

Edit, should change the title to "Gander Mountain black friday ad scams"

Vashjir - I thought about that, but did not want upset folks that actually purchased from GM.

Cobb - I think their motto is the same as my favorite bar in Anchorage, Chillcoot Charlies', is ----- "We cheat the other guy and pass the savings on to you".....
