Walmart Supercenter and Cabelas BOTH Open Today!

I am so conflicted...........

Our community has a Walmart Supercenter that opens today, and 5 miles away, a brand new 170,000 square foot Cabelas!!

I'm thinking Cabelas, and then some cheap generic prescription drugs........

I pick Cabelas. If Walmart is just opening, it's going to be PACKED.

Instead, buy a nice pair of hiking boots, a hat to keep the sun off (melanoma, you know), and go for a heart-rate-raising hike. Repeat daily.

THen you won't NEED the cheap perscription drugs! ;-D

I had to google "Cabelas".

I wonder how a store like that would work out here.

Cabala's, oh yeah! I suspect they'd make some minor adjustments: Instead of bassboats, surf boards; instead of beef jerky, dried pineapple; instead of stuffed bears, live hula girls. Oh yeah, they'd get you in the store.

Target still hasn't decided if they want to enter the Hawaii market, but there've been more rumors lately.

Depends on where you do it... try the California / Nevada / Arizona desert -- my favorite places to get away from the pollens. And BEE-oootiful, to boot!

Did you read how many people they're expecting to visit Cabelas in the next few days Hubby and I are going to wait for a few weeks before we make the drive. (60+ minutes for us, you lucky dog!)

Next most frequently hunted are probably pig & fish... and the occasional feral goat.
