I saw on Bookface where BPS/Cabelas was going to have a sale on Garmin sonars. The one I wanted had an MSRP of $2,999.99 (12" Echomap Ultra UHD/GT54). The next gen Ultra 2/GT56 is $3,099 (Bluetooth and extra range transducer). Well I don't need the Bluetooth or the extra range, and I wasn't gonna pay $3K, much less $3,100. So I saw the ad posted for Black Friday only, that they were selling the outgoing Ultra/GT54 for $1,499.97. Went in on Tuesday and set up my account, looked at the early sale for the Ultra 2/GT56  at $2,499.97. Nice sale, but still a grand more than I want to pay. In the interim I got a $10 off code via email if I'd come back and buy. Waited till after midnight last night and entered the item code for the Ultra/GT54 and there it is! Added to cart, used the code and got what I wanted for $1,489.97 + tax. Ordinarily I avoid all the Black Friday hoopla like the plague. This one was fairly easy compared to trudging out to a store at 5am in the cold. Still, you had to read the fine print and pay attention to the item code. People on Bookface were complaining that they couldn't get the deal to work because they were searching the item description and the link was broken. That was true, but if you entered the 7-digit code it took you directly to it and you could add to cart. It pays to do your homework! <img src="/images/smilies/smile.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
