Fleet Farm Ad conundrum

Postby AlexNGreen on Sat Feb 11, 2012 5:43 am

So Fleet has items at a good price that I would like. I am only letting myself get one and can't decide.

-Tantal Sporter 5.45x39 for $370
-Case of Federal Xm193 for $300
Or last but not least (actually does cost less)
-Mosin Nagant and 440 rounds for $175

Which one to get? They all seem like so much fun.

Mosin....then spend the extra $125 on beer and vodka for afterwards.

Friday I had to decide whether to order a Bison burger, or a Walleye hoagie, both sounded good to me. I told the bartender I can't decide, just surprise me, she surprised me by bringing a Philly sandwich. Best meal I had all week.

Most people can't have 3 lunches a day, but I'll put on my devil's advocate hat, and say get all of these items.

Seconded! Though I was there last night (at Owatonna) and opted for the Mossberg Maverick 88 12 gauge security shotgun. Thanks, wifey!

I was there, too! Got some of the WWB 9mm that was on sale. The Mosins were calling to me, but I slipped out of sporting goods before they could pull me in.....

I really like that store. Got some slippers there a month or so ago that are SUPER nice. Like lined insulated leather jobs, easily $100 or so normal price, on clearance for $14! It might have helped that they were size 16 extra wide and probably sat in the store for eleven years before my mammoth-footed self discovered them!

We have 100 round pack on sale for 29.99, so $300 gets you a thousand rounds. It is American Eagle 55 gr, great ammo that runs and shoots well.
