Cabela's is an hour and a half drive for me each way, so it's more of a treat when I go there then anything else. I shop online all the time and have found a few good deals there, especially with their home decor. My wife LOVES all things antlers, so I get her a lamp or basket, or just about anything with antlers. When looking for her deer rifle, we found the best selection at Cabela's. Dozens of different youth models out where you can pick them up, look at them and not have anybody getting in the way. Cost was a little more, but it was in stock and it wasn't all that much more then what we saw at the discount stores near home. I'd go again to buy a rifle just because there where so many options.
I'm not into fancy, high end guns. Mine all end up in the mud or dirt anyway. I don't look at them when I'm not using them, so fancy isn't something that gets appreciated.
For that amount of money, I would be all over updating hunting clothes, boots and some camping gear. New sleeping bags and rain gear for Alaska!!!
Then there is always their outdoor, backyard stuff that is really nice. Fire pits, chairs and lighting. I think I could be very happy having my home done all in Cabela's stuff inside and out!!!!!
On a side note, has anybody heard anything more on Bass Pro Shops buying Cabela's? Lots of talk about it happening on the hunting forums I frequent, but nothing lately.
