[QUOTE="Blake Burnette, post: 1709348, member: 111211"] Tony, You're not alone my friend. I had a similar experience with a Remington 700 ADL in 7mm Rem Mag on 7/31/19. It had a clearance tag on it...$299. I asked the department mgr about Lay-a-way. She told me that I could put it on lay-a-way and in 2 more weeks the price would drop again and since it would still be in "store inventory," it would receive the clearance mark-down just as if it were still in the display case. So I did the law-a-way, had to put up 50% down pmt. I waited until 2 days before the law-a-way was up and went back to sporting goods. I saw the same department mgr, and the inventory sticker was still in the rotary display case. She scanned it and then told me that it had received it's final mark-down.....and voila....it was down to $184!
