Ladies and gentlemen,
lend me you're ears. The question has been raised about Joe going the way of internet only product. I for one don't like buying Joe online. (I bought the desert and arctic casepack online notwithstanding) I would much rather hit up 2 or 3 stores and make a day out of it. Stop off for lunch midway through and refect on the haul. I dare say, I might be a bit of a dinosaur in this respect. You're reflection would be greatly appreciated.

I love hunting. Sure, it's disappointing a lot of the time, but when you round that corner and see 2 Divers and 3 Para-Vipers hanging there, the feeling is unequaled. Plus, it's cheaper.

I would much rather go huntin' for em BUT being a Canadian Tanker, often times it is very slim pickin's around my parts so I will go to the same TRU's or Walmarts from Niagara to Toronto 10 times and always see the same results.. 3 Wild Bills and an Air Chariot lol
Internet shopping unfort. seems to be the best way for me to go.. but I would much rather go on a hunt as long as once in a while the hunt paid off haha .. still searching for a Water Moccasin... *tear* amen bro!

Gas is down. I'd buy into that if gas was still $4 a gallon, but it's around $1.85 here. Unless you're buying a bunch of stuff at once, shipping is disgustingly expensive.
Edit: I will admit I'm biased, as I have 5 Walmarts, 4 Targets and a TRU within a 20 mile radius where I can go hunting. Last edited by Foolproof; 02-16-2009 at 11:50 PM.. |

After many failed trips to Walmart/Target/TRU the hunt is no longer fun and It's just easier to buy them online.

It would seem that everyone from cradle to grave is inflating their shipping rates.
