Deals are where you find them. My favorite is when one of the big stores completely misses the mark because of a computer glitch. I picked up a new Boyt Harness leather soft case that Boyt lists for $195 for $74.95 because the skue tag was wrong and the salesman didnt have a clue. Got a new System Two flyreel for the price of a spare spool for the same reason. Same with a pair of Northface mountaineering pants--20 bucks instead of 120 because the computer said so. Makes up for the frustration when there is something you really want but is ridiculously overpriced. Don't get mad--just get even.
