Better Check Your Dick's 2024


fishing user avatarctf58 reply : 

Dick's Sporting goods that is. My local store is doing the $0.97 sale again. Right know it is 50% off the clearance price. Got sexy shad cranks for $1.47 after discount. My final total was $116.00 worth of stuff for $43.63. Might be worth looking into. Even got an Abu Garcia spinning reel and Berkley lighting rod combo that was $69.99 marked down to $49.97. Got 50% off got it to $24.98. On top of that it has a $20.00 mail-in rebate. :eyebrows: I know it is not the best set-up in the world but $4.98 for a rod and reel!!


fishing user avatarRaider Nation Fisher reply : 

Dang! I already spent my monthly fishing allowance. :( :(

Maybe they'll still have stuff next month.


fishing user avatarflippin and pitchin reply : 

Could you have thought of a slightly different title. I thought the thread was going to be warning. Sheesh.


fishing user avatarGatorbassman reply : 

Mine's doing fine thanks.... I just checked to make sure.


fishing user avatarBassn Blvd reply : 

Mines fine, even with a hole in it. :bounce:


fishing user avatarflippin and pitchin reply : 

This will probably end up on the Leno Show. Sorry Clint. Hope you have a sense of humor.


fishing user avatarbwillis reply : 

The one in my town had Big Bite Baits Flying Squirrels in Blue Fleck color for $1.23/pack. The tag still said 3.79, but they rang up for 1.23


fishing user avatarSam reply : 

According to the manager of the Pecker's by my house, each Pecker's can have the $.97 sale.

I will go by today and check it out.

Last time I took all of the Strike King jig heads of the size I wanted that were in the store.

Thanks for the heads up. Sincerely appreciate it.


fishing user avatarcrankbait2009 reply : 

I stopped in at my Local Dicks last night. I got 2 boxes of Berkley Fire Line Braid, 20#, moss green, 300 yards for $9 each!!!!

I have one on sale here in the flea market, other I'm keeping for myself.

thought that was an Awesome deal!!


fishing user avatarBlue Streak reply : 

As soon as I read that heading I knew this would be a bit "different". No comment.


fishing user avatarwebertime reply : 

I just went today and got an LC Sammy 100, and 2 Pointer SP 100's for $5 and $6. Jackall Plastics there are $2 as well. $2 Husky Jerks as well.


fishing user avatarHooligan reply : 

Wow man, I just got back and I'm stocked on three colors of Rage Craws and Baby Craws for the next five years. They had them all @ $1.49 with the 50% off clearance price I paid $.75 each. I ended up spending about $140 on everything they had left, including any back-stock. It was funny, because the guys were trying to get me to take a lot of other baits, too.


fishing user avatard3bf48 reply : 

they had revo sx lefties on sale for $99.99 plus 50% off= $49.99 :eyebrows:


fishing user avatarMcAlpine reply : 

Nice sale, thanks for the heads up. Ran into my local store tonight and bought most of the good stuff they had left. Locallly there was just one isle in the middle of the store with the .97 stuff but still did really well. I have a Dick's by where I work. Are they doing this for only one day or can I hit that other store tomorrow too?

My local store had some reels on sale but no additional 50% or 25% off of the mark down price. No rods on sale that I could see. Bummer.


fishing user avatarSam reply : 

Not at my Pecker's by my house.

Went there today and they said their sale was last week.

Bummer.


fishing user avatarBrand0n reply : 

went to my local one yesterday and only a few lures were clearanced and not much else :(


fishing user avatarSTL BassMan reply : 

Went there on Friday night....spent $36 on tackle that would have cost me $103. Lot's of good stuff too. Rapala Husky Jerks for $1.79, Red Eye Shads for 1.49, and Strike King Craws for 1.29. I couldn't believe my eyes and could hardly contain myself... :respect-059:


fishing user avatarpiscicidal reply : 

I bought a bunch of stuff Friday... LC Cranks and Sebile Magic Swimmers: $5. Koppers frogs: $4. Mirrolure top water spook-type bait: $1 (snook/redfish). Smoking roosters/space monkeys: ~$1. Spent ~$50 on ~$200 worth of stuff. I bought every Lucky Craft and Sebile hard bait they had on clearance.

Note: not all the $xx.97 clearance baits had the red tags. Look around you might find a deal you were not expecting.


fishing user avatarJigMe reply : 

Went there yesterday, but most of the items are already sold...darn it.


fishing user avatarA-Rob reply : 

I think you hijacked your own thread hahaha


fishing user avatarCrestliner2008 reply : 

Where else can you find Yama Senkos @ 2 pks. for $10.00!


fishing user avatarbflow_6 reply : 

these dicks titles are killing me first one was i just robbed dicks now better check your dicks


fishing user avatarA-Jay reply : 

I am sad to say we do not have that particular chain of sporting goods store in this area -

Which is a whole lot better than saying "We don't have any Dick's up here!"

A-Jay


fishing user avatarctf58 reply : 

Well this has been fun. On a final note, I went to 2 of these stores and I have got to say the Dick's across the river in Indiana is a lot smaller than the Dick's in Kentucky.

Just a FYI, our Dick's are bigger than their Dick's. :happy-138:


fishing user avatarslonezp reply : 

I checked mine today. Anything ending in .97 was gone.


fishing user avatarFat-G reply : 

Good God, I will never have to buy Jackall Sasuteki Craws (in every color), Flick Shakes, or RI Flirt's again. Bought everything they had plus all the stuff in the back. Wow. It's like they don't even know. The girl checking me out was asking why I was laughing while she was ringing it up.

Too bad I really have no use for all of this stuff, LOL.

Consider yourself lucky. Usually when a girl is checking me out, she's the one laughing... ;)

fishing user avatarbaluga reply :

fishing user avatarCaptain Obvious reply : 

There is way to much Information flying around this thread but in case you missed it here is an update

From the thread titled " Better Check You Dicks"

  • Bassin Blvd is doing just fine.
  • crankbait2009 has local dicks and he has deiced to keep one of them.
  • McAlpine has dicks at work. (don't we all)
  • STL BassMan followed this threads advice & couldn't believe his eyes and can hardly contain himself...
  • A-Jay has a great life becasue there are no dicks where he is. Sad to say the same can't be said for Clint Ford since he claims there are bigger dicks where he lives.
  • slonezp is following the threads advice becasue he just checked his.
  • Fat-G & piscicidal are both being laughed at by woman about this topic.

If you don't find this funny it ain't your dicks you need to be checking.

Can always start trading with other..... so then you can have even more stuff..haha


fishing user avatarloodkop reply : 

Capt O you have made my day. Thanks. There is lots of dicks in over here. Unfortunately they don't sell tackle.


fishing user avatartugsandpulls reply : 

too much talk about dicks on this thread we need start a new one


fishing user avatarbassin is addicting reply : 

i checked my Dick's...

Rage Craw $1.74

Anaconda $1.74

Thumper 73 cents

i'm going to check another Dick's and hour away tomorrow...... it's a date.... :eyebrows:


fishing user avatarMcAlpine reply : 

Just an update, anyone that has not checked in with their local store get on it. Not a one day sale but an ongoing clearance sale. I hit two more by work. I may never have to buy plasstics again. Most importantly, Terminator Titanium T1 spinner baits $2.98. This is about the only spinnerbait I use any more and they are $9 at normal cost. What an awesome sale. Bought my first swim bait - $5.


fishing user avatarDiggy reply : 

I checked mine again today and came into some deals. My bag is filled up and I only spent 20 dollars


fishing user avatar0119 reply : 

Is the sale still going on? The fishing section of the Dicks closest to me never sees any serious customers. Only joggers and under armour fanatics go there. Should be ripe for the pickings.


fishing user avatarSenkoman12 reply : 

went there last night. they were picked pretty clean but that didnt mean there wasnt any good stuff.

i got

3 packs of chigger toads-$1.48 each

pack of zoom finesse worms-$1.48

yum craw papis-$1.48

yum crawbugs-$1.48

sk baby wake shad-$5.47

id say i did pretty good


fishing user avatarNorcalBassin reply : 

This thread is so all over the place that it's one of my all time favorites. Nice work fellas!


fishing user avatarBrand0n reply : 

basically anything with a that ends with a .97 price tag is 50% off?


fishing user avatarGeoff Sandvik reply : 

Made out like a bandit last night! Bought over $180 worth of Rapala's for only $62 on sale and with my $10 off coupon but the best part was I found a $20 bill in the parking lot on the way back to the car! :respect-059:


fishing user avatarjignfule reply : 

I check my dick's quit often. it's the same o' same o' usually. nothing seems to happen there until it gets hotter.

You didn't turn around and walk back into the store to spend that 20 bucks? Have you learned nothing from this site? :myopic:


fishing user avatarBassn Blvd reply : 

I wonder how many Dick's have been checked out since the start of this thread?


fishing user avatard3bf48 reply : 

The three in my area just keep adding stuff, every time I go back the clearance rack is jammed full. :respect-059: I have enough jigs, rapalas, plastics, etc for the next 5 seasons.


fishing user avatarSoCalFisher reply : 

The one near me doesn't carry fishing stuff.

I broke down and drove 90 minutes to check one out today... only had a handful of things on sale that were far from impressive. I had planned to pick up a bunch of Rage products and other items I've read on here, but they either don't carry them or they weren't on sale.

:angry:


fishing user avatarPackard reply : 

Mine has the 50% off of .97 but nothing in the store except 2 Mister Twister's end in .97 :angry:


fishing user avatarSirSnookalot reply : 

My local DSG did not have the .97 sale, I did buy PP for 19.99 on sale. I'm going to trek out to another location that has a better fishing dept, actually quite good for saltwater, I'm looking for another rod that DSG handles exclusively.


fishing user avatarBrand0n reply : 

going back to see if my local store still has the sale today


fishing user avatartugsandpulls reply : 

yup still goin on


fishing user avatarBrand0n reply : 

went back today and nothing. the little they had was mostly gone and nothing on any other isles had .97 price tags. picked up a few terminator jigs anyways


fishing user avatarctf58 reply : 

Please send 10% of all savings to me. I new telling a bunch of guys to check there dick's was a good idea!!! :happy-138::wave:


fishing user avatarHi Salenity reply : 

Mine had most of the .97 items only 25% off and the sale ended Saturday.

I got a 45# Minn Kota for $128 with a battery charger.


fishing user avatarBurke reply : 

I went to two dicks and they weren't having major sales, only few things which I was disappointed..but at least it was only 20 miles drive one way so i cant complain...


fishing user avatarj.bruno reply : 

The clearance at my dicks consisted of a 2ft by 2ft box with a bunch of junk in it.


fishing user avatarFrog Turds reply : 

i checked my dicks & they didn't have dick...


fishing user avatarPOPRG reply : 

Went on a ride yesterday to check out the local dicks...

[WHAT??] couple a clearance bins w/$ 6.97 rapalas and opened packs of sluggos for $4.99?/?..did get 3 packs of 1/4 oz. tru-tungstens for $5.97 sittin at the bottom of a bin covered in GULP juice!
