Anyone know if there will be any deals at this years ice fishing show. I have gone the past 3 years and have never found a deal on anything. It is usually retail price at best in there.

Anybody know of any deals, or any ways to get a deal on anything? I love going, but buying is hard to do there.

There was already a thread on this, do a search......

There are always deals down there but if you dont assert yourself and do some comparison shopping you wont get them. Shop the retailers against eachother. They are there to sell and they dont want to have to load it all back up and bring back home.
It may only get ya a free cover for your house or case for your graph but you will save some $ by doing so.

plus it is nice to have all your differeny brands and such in one place

Last year, I got an Ice Armor suit for $169.99, retails for $250. They even let me take an XL bib & a L Jacket.

There normally are not very many marked deals, but by asking you can normally get a pretty good price. On most items they are willing to bargain with you or throw in a freebie item.

The last day can offer some better deals also.

Stop at Thorne Bros booth. I will be set up with them. I always give great deals on all my products at the Ice Show and my products will help you out and wont break the bank. Check out my new "Jig Disks" at the show. COOL!!!

Bruce I will surely stop and buy some of them discs from you. I saw them in the Ice Fishing Mag and thought what a great idea they are. It will surely make some ordinary jigs do unordinary things. Great idea! I hope it does as well as the Ice Buster Bobber that I see others are knocking off now.
Save me a bunch of them as well. Can never have enough Ice Busters in the tackle box!

Just googled the "jig disks", what a great innovative idea. Plastics is one of my favorite presentations, with the addition of the disks it will be another great tool to tigger that tough bite.

Great job on the new innovation Bruce. If I can get to the show, I'll be picking up some for sure. Thanks for making the price reasonable, and I like the variety pack option.

Thanks guys! Wait until you see me demonstrate the Jig Disks in a tank of water at the Ice Show!!

Does anybody have deals on Arctic Armor suits at the show?...I am thinking this might be the major addition to my gear this year...

AA doesn't offer any deals at the show --- the best you will find at the show is free gloves.

Pro Fishing Supply and the Outdoor Pro Store are both sponsors here and both give FREE GLOVES and FREE SHIPPING on AA suits. No need to wait for the ice show. Check them out now if you want.

Anyone know if there will be an Icegator booth or retailer there?

I just picked up a new AA Camo jacket for $169 most places have it listed for $204. Even with having to pay for shipping it was still cheaper ($181) than most everywhere else i saw. Got it from the guy you see in the FF ads.
