The Peterborough store currently has 50% off Women's clearance clothing and 50% off clearance gear including packs. I picked up a 1.5l hydration waist pack for $10(orig. price $59).

In the Poughkeepsie store a few weeks back they started to put out all sorts of stuff with big discounts... I ended up buying three Russian made (I forgot the company) Ti ice screws for climbing for $7bucks each... Now I don't have to cringe too much if I need to leave a screw behind if I have bail off something.

I went to the EMS in Conway yesterday and bought Mountain Hardware Windstopper Tech jacket and another poly t-shirt for $153. It normally sells for $185. Everything in every store is 20% off through Sunday. There were dozens in the store shopping and purchasing.

It's not hard at all to get 10% off stuff, and even 20% if you are willing to wait a little while. If you are not already on their e-mail list, you should be -- they send discount offers all the time. Like recently they sent me an offer -- 20% off any single item in the store, except you could print 100 coupons if you wanted to. I wish I was in the market for a kayak or something when that coupon rolled around! If I ever decide I need a tent or sleeping bag, or plastic boots or any other big-ticket item, I'll be waiting them out!

p.s. They have forms in the store, or you can get there via http://reg.cheetahmail.com/regp?aid=171895570&n=100

I scored the EMS Velocity overbag for winter... Originally $250, marked down to $132, marked down again to $62... It was suppossed to have been bumped back up to the $132 price the day before the 20% off sale, but someone forgot to do it; lucky for me... The manager gave it to me for the $62... I did not complain that I did not get another 20% off, I got it for a steal...

The bag looks like it will be a nice Spring/Fall bag in of it's self... I'll be heading out overnight this weekend and will test-drive it... May bring along my Marmot Trails bag to use inside of it to add a few degrees of warmth as well. My only gripe? That thing is loooooonnnngggg... Something like 7'9" long, I could throw a party in it! I may have to put a keg-a-rator and some bar stools in it for those long winter nights.

Also, got to meet Dawn(hikethe115) from here as she was poking around the Poughkeepsie EMS store as well...

Catch you all on the Trail...

I scored a Gregory Forrester last year's EMS club day, it was like $150 on clearance and I got 20% off on top of that... Wasn't even planning on buying anything but it came in handy on the big trips I did this year...
