CLEARANCE SALES AT WALMART AND ACADEMY! - 09/03/20 08:22 PM
Anyone else take advantage of the Walmart and Academy clearance sales this week???
First check the price on the scanners!!! At Walmart and Academy they are both taking 50% or more OFF of the clearances prices!
I think I made out ok!!!

Scored about a dozen KVD spinner baits for between $1.80 - $2.20. Everything else on the shelf was junk I dont need.

Got a buttload of KVD cranks, Zara spooks, some spinnerbaits,Ribbit Frogs, a ton of jigheads, hooks, swivels, line, a few reels ($6.00 a piece for some Shimano and Abu Garcia modes!!), a few rods ($7.50 for some Quantums) and some KVD popping perch for $1.50.
Insane sales that were showing up as even less at checkout. My wife was horrified when I came home with so many bags full of stuff until I showed her the receipt.
Not sure if they’re just doing overhaul like the lady at checkout told me or if it’s part of a bigger plan to reduce the footprint of fishing gear in favor of other stuff. Either way, I’m set for a few years now!!

At my local Academy I found thunder crickets for $5 and some 1.5oz tungsten weights for $2.50!! They had a bunch of cranks marked down as well. Really small display but I am happy to find it!
Thanks for posting!

They have been out of stock on most of the items I wanted all year. Amazon is the new fishing store for me, not because I wanted it that way but because the stores are out of stock.

Same here. All of the Academies I have been to don't have anything to "clearance."

Same. They never have anything I'm looking for. If you're a bass fisherman, its the place to be. Catfish, and crappie, with live bait, staring at empty shelves.

I stopped at an Academy in north Houston this afternoon. The entire fishing section looked like they have been giving stuff away and not restocking. The pegs are bare.
This is the result of over dependency on China.

I went to Academy to do a propane exchange and picked up some 1/32 oz Owner Blockhead jigs for fishing TRDs. The high price of $5 for 4 jig heads has kept me from trying them. It rang up for only $1.48 so I went back and cleared the peg and got 15 packages. They were not marked as on sale.

The Academy and Walmart stores around here never have anything left to clearance.

I was either WAY late to the party or it varied a lot by store because I checked 2 walmarts in Arlington last week on Thursday and nothing was on clearance in the outdoor section.

I picked up a B n M Sam Heaton 10’ crappie jigging rod for $13.75. A $55 dollar rod. I didn’t really need another one but couldn’t pass it up for the price. Not much else there.
