I'm planning on making the trip to Auburn for the big sale tomorrow. I'm working an overnight shift tonight and get out at 9am tomorrow morning. I'm leaving straight from work, so I should get there around 10:30 or 11. Does anyone know what kind of crowds I should expect? I've never been during the Classic. I'm hoping that it won't be too bad because I'll be there in the middle of the day on Friday when many people are at work.

Depends on if anyone of the pros will be there tomorrow.

It can get packed during the spring classic, especially early.  Everyone is thinking the same thing you are.

You do realize the special members sale is from 6 pm to 9 pm tomorrow,  right? Double your points. Hourly raffles. Special deals.

There needs to be a Bass Pro near Albany.................Auburn is just to dang far! Cripes :-/

No, I did not realize that but I'm not a member and I have other plans at that time. Since I'm trying to avoid the crowd as much as possible, the fact that I'll be long gone by then sounds like a good thing.

Send me your receipt for the points, LOL.  ;D

Speaking of.....admit it, who has snuck their rewards card in on your buddy's purchase?  Its a long standing tradition when our club goes as a group.

heading to the Richmond Bps after school is this 6pm to 9pm deal at all the BPS's?

No idea.

Not at Bass Pro, but my buddy does it at Auto Zone all the time.

When I go in there for oil or brakes, he always tells me to use his rewards card.

Decided not to go today. It's nasty out there!

I postponed my trip due to the storm on Friday, but left Rochester at 7:30 this morning and got there right as they were unlocking the doors at 9:00. I had made a list of items I wanted to get ahead of time, and by sticking to the list I was able to get everything I needed and get out of there in less than an hour. It was just starting to get a little crowded when I left, but it still wasn't bad.

I'll be going there from rochester as well on Sat..  Run into any good deals??

Carbonlite BC reels were on sale for $100, and the reel trade in knocked off another $20 so I got one for $80. Other than that, I got a few BPS enticer football jigs, a BPS Kermy frog, a spool of trilene xl 6lb, and a spool of 20lb stren sonic braid. Other than the stren braid everything I bought was on sale but the discounts weren't anything too special. Besides the reel the best deal was probably on the BPS jigs, which they were selling for $1.67 when the normal price is $2.59

I was there Sat. and Sunday, LOL.  $392 and $147, respectively.
