I was told by one of the managers that it is 5%. We were discussing that there will be a VIP day for Cabela's card holders on 11/18 and that the employee discount would be available if you attend. At the time, I was considering making a firearm purchase and contemplating the different sales that were upcoming and debating the best sale to use. That is when she volunteered the employee discount amount.
I have an invite for friends and family weekend Nov. 16-18. I get employees discount for stock items. I was just trying to see if it is worth going.
thanks
I used to work there, and its basically what spanky said... the discount varies by what the manufacturer allows (to an extent), since Cabela's gets street cred (free advertizing) for having their products out in the hands of customers they discount their brand the most.
On the 18th, there is a Cabela's Club VIP event from 6-10 PM. There will be drinks, music and employee discounts. I may go by there on the 16th to see what discounts are being offered if they are not advertised to the general public. Usually, I can order bulk ammo cheaper than the discounted Cabela's price but if the deals are better, I don't mind buying from them.
the last time i went there for the VIP event it was 10% on firearms. there was a little discount on ammo, but i forgot the exact percentage. i think i got only 20% off on a pistol bag.
