Not so good a deal.  $69 plus tax.  Here in GA it would be about $73.

PA is 74.95 all the time.  Wait a minute and they'll have another 10% off with free shipping.  That will put it at about $67.50 (no tax)... and your karma will be intact (You will not come back as a big old slow noisy squirrel in my backyard).   ;)

BUT, you have to order $150+ worth to get free shipping. You cannot utilize the free shipping AND the 10% together. It's either or. PA still rocks!

You are correct (usually), but PA has run the 10% off AND free shipping twice in the past 30 days (actually one was 13% off and free shipping).  That's what I meant by wait a minute.  ;)

And, there are some folks who would rather not spend their bucks with Wal-Mart, when possible.  Have a cousin with a Hardware store & friends with a gun shop, "Wal-Mart" is a "bad" word in both locations.  ;)

I want to think they might do a post holiday offer like that later next week.

I do like that deal at PA.  Is that year round or should I take advantage now?  I hate missing a deal!

The PA "deal" right now is 10% off OR free shipping over $150 (whichever is cheaper), but there WILL be a ?% off AND free shipping at some point.  Bet on it.  ;)

If you buy something from PA they will email you their deals every time and you won't miss a thing.

Now to really mess with your head, we run a brick and mortar (as in real life... we do not sell bricks and mortar) store and can buy tax exempt for re-sale. But since internet sales are tax free except in home state (and a few others),  I do not mess with all that... going to Wally World and ordering with tax exempt for delivery to store... and then having the Sec of State audit and ask where the final sales tax collected is at?  "Uh, it sold on-line so it was never recovered." TOO MUCH TROUBLE, beginning with going to the Wally Zoo to begin with.

Yes, Wally World is an evil thing.

Off subject a bit, but the thing that KILLS me at PA is that if you want to buy say three types of pellets.  You buy 3 and the fourth is free, right? Wrong!  If four are $9 a tin, another four is $6 a tin and the other four is $4 a tin, you will get three of the $4 ones free!  They should give you the 4th one of whatever you order...  one free $9, one free $6 and one free $4.

That is why, in my last pellet order, I ordered 12 of the same kind. Made out really well and got my 10% off, + 3 free tins of pellets. ;) ;)

But they did exactly what you said on the order before my last one. I wanted to try some different pellets. Bought the hi end ones, you know, $10 to $14 a tin, but one can was $6 and that is the one that was free. So, now I buy 8 or more of the same kind. Then it cuts down the cost and I get free pellets. Oh by the way, if anyone needs a 10% code, this one works. AG-2013-2. It is good until May 31, 2014. :-*
