Look at what I bought at GM in Greenwood!!!!!

[longbow]

20 to 40% off at the store, there had to be a deal someplace!












Looked and circled twice.






Left with nothing.







No one was purchasing much....

 

[Vigilant]

I bought 6 pair of Kuhl pants for about $40 each, SMOKING HOT DEAL!!!!

 

[HubertGummer]

I myself was not that impressed with the "sale" prices...ammo was still more than anywhere else. Also left with nothing.

 

[longbow]

They did have GM ball caps for 3 dollars, but I passed.

Thank you for saving me the trip there tomorrow.

I stopped in again this morning. I stop in a couple of times a week.
I haven't found any gear related deals except for a couple pairs of boots, Insulated camo coveralls, and a "demo" gun vise/tote.
I was going to buy these items anyway to refresh my normal gear which is showing it's age.
Oh, I hate new boots. I might like them in a couple of years.

Went by there this morning myself and bought nothing. The front of the store is plastered with signs saying "GOING OUT OF BUSINESS". And there it is right smack in the middle of doors, entry and exit, "NOW HIRING"! I thought about asking for an application just to see the reaction.

The Greenwood store is to remain open from what I've been told.

I was in Metropolis, IL last weekend for an archery tourney. We stayed in Paducah and checked out the GM there. They had sold or gotten rid of a bunch of stuff. Footwear was slim, camping didnt have much. I did buy a box of Hornady Interlock in 243 for $14. There was a few other things I would have bought if I had more money. They actually had some good deals.

The people who own the stuff on the shelves are not the same ones who bought the company. ALL inventory was sold to a liquidator, but some stores will reopen with new merchandise.

Once the liquidator gets rid of the current stock, some stores like Greenwood will close, be refitted with new infrastructure and new inventory, and reopened after retraining the staff in the new ways of the operations.

So its not quite as ironic as it sounds.

Oh, and it reminds me of a funny story. An acquaintance from back in the day managed a computer store. (late 90s) He got word from corporate that they were closing the store in a pretty crappy way and they were expecting unrealistic things in the deal. I dont recall details but he and his crew REALLY got shafted. Why they didnt just give corporate the middle finger and walk out I dont know.

Instead they had a banner printed up to display in the window until they were done liquidating:

"FIRE SALE! EVERYONE IS FIRED, SO EVERYTHING IS ON SALE!!!"

What were they going to do? Fire them?

Went there a few weeks ago with my wife. She picked out some girly looking flip flops. She finally realized they were mens when her size didn't fit. She looks at me and says what man would buy these? I said your brother! (who is gay)

 

[hoosierdoc]

are they selling shelving and stuff like that too?

 

[The Bubba Effect]

Doubt it, they're not even selling the ammo.

 

[hoosierdoc]

Avon gun counter has prices on all the fixtures.

I stopped back in about an hour and a half ago. I bought a couple of scopes, Leupold VX1 3x9, Bushnell 4x12x40 A0, Leupold Rings and Bases, Weaver rings, and an assortment of Blizzard Lens covers. 50% off accessories, 30% off the scopes.
Then I went next door to WalMart and they had some CCI SV .22lr so I bought that up.
NO Bacon was purchased.
