Impulse buys are going to get me in Trouble!

It's a good thing I don't have a Cabela's within "lunch distance" of my office!

Oh...it's worse than you think. I have both Cabella's and BasPro about 8 minutes away.

That would undo my marriage for sure! :LOL2:

I cant imagine being that close to both of those stores! every cent id make would be spent there!

I kinda got carried away on a website's Black Friday sale in November.
Bought 8 new Dobyns Champion rods (ended up being 36% off, with free shipping :lol: )
added 2 more since picture was taken

How do you like those Dobyns Rods?

where and how? I'm looking for a Dobyns rod............

Probably TW, on BF they had 20%, you could use the 20% to first buy their gift cards and then use it again with the gift card to make your purchase, total savings was 36% or so off, both Basstackledepot.com, Hookeduptackle.com had similar deals.

Yep! 8) It was thehookuptackle.com
20% off gift cards, then used them for 20% off purchases, with free shipping! :lol:

I work 5 minutes from BPS here in San Antonio, and I think it helps curb the stickershock!!! If I buy one thing a week or two, it is not near as bad as buying 20 things at once every 6 months, right??!!! At least with my wife, she doesn't keep a runnign tally!haha!

Spent $200 at TW and didn't even buy anything cool. Just a couple 1000 yd spools of flouro, a 100 worm hooks and a couple Falcon worm bags and I think something else but can't remember what. And that was with a 10% off coupon.

Man, I don't know how you guys do it. I have no one to answer to about spending $ on fishing but I'd have to kick my own *** if I did some of this stuff. I have a tendency to be an equipment junkie and have to be really careful not to even start. I have exactly 2 rod/reel combos - I got a used Daiwa on Ebay over the winter to replace my aging Millionaire. I gave everything else to Brine's kids fishing project a while back and sold all my fly fishing stuff over the winter. Where I really get into trouble is with lures. I've been hooked on many an unproductive lure...

I'm just about as bad, but I have a better justification. I'll "plan" to buy these things for 6 or 8 months, then finally pull the trigger. Like last year when I bought 6 (or maybe it was 8...) Quantum reels in a 2 month span. I planned to buy them for a really long time, and when they went on sale, I knew the time had come. :lol:

I set the hook last night with my Skeete reese senco rod and busted it in half, Todays replacement was goona be a bps Bionic blade, But for some reason i couldnt walk away from the st croix mojo bass, plus they are made in Usa. Wife wasnt to impressed. There will be no more Skeet reese rods for me. I bought a new one 2 weeks ago that going back soon.

Edit, Actually made in Mexico, Still an american company and not made in China.

As long as you don't have to push 1 to use it...it's okay. I REFUSE to push 1! Especially when it's a company in the USA.

I promised that I wouldn't buy any more fishing stuff this winter.....she's gonna be pissed when the credit card statement come's in....lol
