Bass Pro Shops - Cary!

I know many of you will be excited to know (and some wives not so much) that Bass Pro Shops is coming to Cary! It may not be Joco, but it's a whole lot closer than Myrtle Beach and Charlotte!

 

Now I just have to figure out how to keep hubby from finding out. That was one of my "bribes" to go to Myrtle Beach! :mrgreen:

 

Oh boy! Johnstonians and Caryites, what an interesting mix.

 

suprising location. i guess more peolple live in that area. all i had heard was near smithfield outlets to get I 95 traffic.

 

Yay! Now I can get my projects around the house done and reward him with a trip to Cary!! I think it's neat there too.

 

Wow my son will be thrilled! Anyone know the date and where it will be? thanks

 

They're saying late this year/early next year where Carolina Pottery currently is on Harrison, just off I-40.

 

I'm guessing they picked that area to compete w/ the Gander Mountain that just opened in Morrisville. Still weird!

 

Gander Mt.

Another Gander Mt coming to near Triangle Town Center

My hubby said its supposed to be open March or April - they're ahead of schedule!

 

and it looks like Cabela's is coming to White Oak, saw a sign there last week.
actually across from White Oak, on 70, where the honda place used to be yrs ago.

 

Correct - http://www.cabelas.com/custserv/custserv.jsp?pageName=Garner

Word is there are going to be some major restaurant announcements for that parcel soon, as well.

 

Stupid question...

The only BPS we visit is in Myrtle Beach because the only fishing we do is at the beach. We don't visit the one out by Charlotte because we heard they mostly sell lake fishing supplies. (Please correct me if I'm wrong!)

So now, do you think Cary will sell both?

 

I was at Chick Fil A at Harrison Blvd on Saturday (right in front of Bass Pro Shops). A BPS employee was eating, his badge said customer service. I asked him when the opening was going to be. He said Early to Mid February. They are done with construction. Need to put up the sign, and are getting the shelves and displays put up, plus employee training.

 

So you expected them not to have regional products? Really there Francis... So they should have Surf fishing products 400 miles inland?

 

Opens Feb. 12 6pm. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/s...appID=34&template=news_display.cfm&newsID=506

 

It looks like an honest observation and question to me. Don't be a ****.
