Thread: Academy Olive Branch

Up here again and the Winchester 100 pack is $6.99 and the 100 pack CCI is $8.99

I'll be there in the morning to get my receipt right for the $6.99 price.
I get CCI 22LR Mini Mags HP for $7.49.

Went by yesterday afternoon, not impressed. if you need some tights for your Zumba class....that's your place. Fishing section was geared toward green carp. Mostly a bunch of crap.

Hunting section is pretty decent.

Yesterday the first 100 people that could prove they like or follow AS got a gift card valued at $20 to $500. Today the first 50 people got a shirt valued at $29.99 to $39.99. Not sure if there is anything for tomorrow. The 25th, 26th and 27th will have about the same thing. Like you, I'm not standing in line.
Last year I did the online survey. Most of the time the first question was like, "did you play golf this weekend?" or "did you play team sports this weekend?" The answer would be "no". That's all of the survey, thank you. They sent me a $25 gift card.

Penny cheap and dollar wise.
It totaled $17.12 and I got a free box for bring it to their attention, so add another $7.47.
Now if I can get a positive answer to a PM I sent last week everything will be fine.
The Commercial Appeal had a article years ago against Goldsmith's. Items would be on sale, but rang up at regular price. The reply was, "we hope people don't see this, if they do we will give them the difference."

I went to the Academy Fri. Not impressed w/ the fishing dept. Not very much for us crappie guys. Only good thing I saw was Bandits @ $5.69 vs $6.99 @ the Warehouse, but not a good selection. No Arkie cranks. Have 2 $10 coupons I'll use tomorrow, but after that prolly won't go back unless I hear of a good deal on something. In my opinion, Academy is similar to Dick's, that cater to all sports and don't cover hunting/fishing areas that great.

We use the grill at campsites, but they can be nasty and falling apart. It takes a while to clean up before using. My son said he would buy a cheap grill instead of using them anymore, like this one. Backyard Grill 17.5" Charcoal Grill - Walmart.com
While walking around academy we spotted this one for $9, so we got one. Outdoor Gourmet 18" Foldable Charcoal Grill | Academy
