How about that they stock 15 styles of oars but no oarlocks? They have Stren Superbraid but only in 65lb and 80lb? Along with Sportco, they always run out of pencil lead and Corkies during steelhead season? They carry mooching rods but not the reels? Their pro packs of Owner cutting points are something like $12.99 for sizes smaller than 1/0 but 1/0 and bigger are $17.99? They won't special order anything. The "kids" behind the sporting goods counter cringe when I come in now. I try to be nice but they got tired of my constructive critism.
I could go on. Shopping at the Lakewood store is frustrating to say the least. I haunt the place because they often miss price items and the cashiers make mistakes. Don't get me wrong here... I am not a theaf. When you ask the cashier if she is sure the discount is correct and she argues with you, what can you do. $80.00 shoes on sale less 20% (as marked) and she discounts them at an additional 20%. Whew! How can you pass that up?
