Gun and gear reviews "Wild Wednesday" flash sale at Cabelas (www.basspro.ca)

Post image

I just learned this: every Wednesday 0001 hrs to 2359 hrs Eastern Time, Cabelas puts on a flash sale for 24 hours.

  • Sometimes there are really good one-day deals on ammo, optics, firearms, gun furniture, targets, and gun cases.
  • The Cabelas associate I spoke with said that he once sold $8000 in optics to one buyer on a Wednesday.
  • A particular Leupold scope went for nearly a thousand dollars off, so dude stockpiled them. I'm guessing he resold them at $500 discount each.

Watch the basspro website tonight for Wild Wednesday details

I don't support Bass Pro anymore.

  1. Overpriced compared to literally any other retailer - so their "deals" are almost the same as base price at Tenda or G4c for example
  2. They fired a shit ton of Canadians

The canadian website was built and constructed by a team here in winnipeg up until recently. Since migrating the canadian site to an American development team, it has lost features and decreased filter options and ease of use. The current site sucks compared to the old one. Piss poor UX now
