I normally boycott the place, but my wife and I were there yesterday because we were shopping for kids bikes for Christmas. Turns out they have a really good selection. After I had the bikes down off the rack my wife started gathering accessories like helmets, knee/elbow pads and lights. So I casually strolled over to the ammo counter expecting to see it wiped out; I was wrong. They had 100 rnd brass 223 for $15, 60 rnd subsonic 300 BLK for $14 and 200 rnd brass 9mm for $17. All marked down to whole dollar prices like DG. The lady said they had been marked down the night before. So I grabbed up 520 rounds in a combination of those three calibers for a little over $80 after tax. What was surprising is that they were out of 357 mag and 44 mag. All the 9mm, 40, 45, 223 and 22 were almost abundant IMO considering the timing.
No, it is not the place to "stock up", but it is not wrong to buy some ammo that I'm going to use at prices resembling the 1990's. (except 300 BLK didn't exist back then, haha)
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
