    Almost Had It

    Cabella's is having a sale next week, unfortunately I will be underway. One of the items they are selling is a Winchester Model 101 O/U shotgun that is 25% off. I went in today to see if they would give me the price today since I would be gone next week. They tried but were unable. Bother. Hopefully I will be in port next time they have this sale.

    I tried to push the envelope, but found that it was stationery.

    Have you heard about the new corduroy pillows? They're making head lines!

    It is too bad they don't understand your circumstances.

    I really want to say it is too bad the manager of the store couldn't make a phone call and get the approval to support someone who is supporting this country!

    Good luck.

    They did call the store manager, but he said for some specials they can make exceptions, but firearms sales are not one of them. I'm not too disappointed, I figured it was a long shot. I also figured that if I asked there was at least a chance, if I didn't ask, there was no chance. It is the second time I have seen that shotgun on special so I will keep hoping for next time.

    My wife and I talked about having her pick it up but she is traveling as well. As for others, we just moved so I don't have anyone near me except people I work with, and we are all traveling at the same time (bothersome thing about being on a Navy ship). Thanks for the thought. I am going to try e-mailing Cabella's corporate office and see what they can do for me. This is the second time that shotgun has been on sale so hopefully the main office can help me out.

    Well, I just sent Cabella's an e-mail. I should have an answer in a day or so. It will be interesting to see what they say.
