Stole This Rod

(1/1)

Curt:
Happened to stop into Dick's Sporting Goods today and looked at a few rods and reels.

I spotted a Lew's Carbon Fire baitcasting rod that was on the racks. The first thing I noticed when I picked it up was that it was as light as a feather. I mean super light, like it weighed almost nothing.

I also looked at the guides. It was a 6' 10" rod and it had 9 guides, which is really good compared to cheaper rods with less guides and guides of lower quality.

The price tag said $79.99, which wasn't too bad for a rod like this.

So I grabbed my phone and went to the Dick's website and found the rod there. The reviews were all really good, with an overall rating of just under 5 stars.

But, best of all. I found that the price on the website was marked 50% off!

$39.99 for this rod!

So off to the cashier I went, with phone in hand to show them the price I had found.

Yes, they reduced the price. And, yes, I also applied a $10 Dick's rewards certificate I had gotten in the mail a few days ago.

So I walked away with an $80 rod for $30.

Can't wait to match it up with a carbon fiber KastKing baitcaster I have for a combo that will weigh just ounces.

Gotta love when you stumble onto deals like this :)
