Default Any News on WSS or Cabelas Boxing Day

Hi all. I was just wondering if anyone has seen any Boxing Day deals out yet for WSS or Cabelas. Cabelas had some smoking deals on Tikkas last year but I couldn't get to the store to take advantage of it.

Yup, I got the Cabela's boxing day flyer yesterday. No Sakos or Tikkas.....sorry. The front page has a TC Venture in 22-250 at $449.....$200 off. Nothing else jumped right out at me though.

cabelas open at 6:00am, longer hours mean more sales. a lot of people will go in to the stores just cause its boxing day. and most are like me its very tough to go in without buying a thing. i always find something to spend money on. b

as for rifles, cabelas will have browning silver stalker semi auto 12g
and a mosberg 4x4 bolt action rifle and scope combo 30-06 and 7mm mag
savage axis xp bolt-action prdator combo 204 ruger to 243win.

Happy holidays folk

Won't matter if they're open. WSS won't have any sale items in stock anyway... Cabelas isn't much better lately either.

I was considering having a serious look at a Sako if the price was right.

x2...on both places. I don't even bother to go to Cabelas anymore even though they are 5min from my house. Everytime I go there anything I want is always out of stock. And it's the same thing at WSS.

I guess it depends on what you are shopping for, I have never went to Cabelas when they didn't have some of the things I was looking for. Walking around looking at thousands of hunting/fishing things is all part of the shopping trip for me though, I never get to up set if there are a couple things they don't have.

Has anyone seen the flyers for these stores posted online anywhere? I got the Bass Pro Shops one and it's got a few deals on rifles, but nothing great.

They ere open on BD last year. Not usually a BD shopper but last year I was at Cabelas at 0600 and went to WSS for their 0900 opening. Bought an Ice Fishing tent at WSS for 50% off last year.

Just got back from cabela's. Didn't see the flyer till i got there. Rem 700 sps, with scope and hard case $499. I decided it wouldn't be right to not bring one home. Lets see if my wife agrees...
I think the sale ended today, though.

I got Rem 700sps with scope & hardcase in 30-06 for 499+tax=525, I think I got a good deal, looks solidly built. Haven't tried it out yet.
