So I went down to Big5 Sporting Goods, with the intention on getting a set of clubs, because I had a 20% off coupon...
Well, they didn't really have much selection, but they had a decent set of Alien's (AG3) for $149.99.
I knew with a 20% off coupon I could get them for $120 ($30 off), but I didn't want the "floor set" because I wanted one absolutely UNTOUCHED...
So I called around to all local Big5's...NO ONE had them...thought on it for a few minutes...OK, well, I'll just take the damn set (they were all still shrink-wrapped, just had been touched)
Get up to the register, hand the guy my coupon...total comes up $89.99...WTF?!?!
I wasn't complaining, but apparently they were mis-labeled on the price (I verified that they WERE ringing up as the Alien AG3 set)
I immediately called the gf and told her to call around and see if anyone had a WOMEN'S set (the set she WAS looking at, was the GolfGirl FWS-2 "petite" for $190)
She found ONE set, in RENO...so we told them to hold them for us until Saturday and we'll pick them up
SCORE! So we BOTH got a set of clubs for $180!!
FWIW, if anyone is interested in getting them, I'd call around to your local Big5 and see if they have them in stock...
