My shoelaces ripped in 2 weeks, didn't find it comfy/ sole can get damp fast, not wet, but damp. Just overall, not worth the price.

Heard good things about red wings but guess I'll try timberlands next as well

the thing about ordering online is you might not be able to stack some deals.

It's 20 percent off regular and sale priced items. AND, you can use your ten dollar off coupon on top of all that. That's why people wait for these events. Some will have the items you want on sale. The last 20% off sale, I bought steel toe shoes for 70% off. First they had wrong price on them, so they had to honour that, then the 30% off all Dakota shoes, plus the 20% off, then the 10 dollars off at the end. I had to buy socks to meet the 50 dollar minimum needed. I had to go back for a seond pair because those were 20% off, LOL.

Go to store and order it and pay. You are guaranteed to get them. I think shipping to your house is also free. If not, they have it delivered to their store. You get call when it comes in.

Marks is like a very successful business......... they do shit right, and their customers are generally very happy. Me being one of them.

i am way over the $50 min. so i do get the free shipping (it says 1-5 days from purolator). no $10 coupon though... oh well.

i have to buy big and tall so i can only get my size online. marks is one of the few places i can get sizes that fit me.

Make sure you get December 10 dollar off card. I ask for two and they have no problem with that. In fact one lady told me it can be used mulltiple times.

I don't take chances, LOL.

The Salmon Arm store had very little in the way of items I wanted. Picked up some new snow gloves for the mountain and some Copper Sole socks, but that was basically it.

Next 20% Off Sale is December 6th. WTF? Two in a row. Hopefully different stuff will be on sale. My favourite dri wear socks were 25% off today, plus the 20% off and 10 bucks on top of that....... Win!

Edit. Correction: The date of next sale is the 7th, which is a Saturday. LOL the store manager told clerk the wrong date.

Sweet. I'll make it out to Kamloops or Vernon for the next one; much better selection at those two locations.




I miss the Langley store.

On top of the December 7th one, they are going to have one more before XMas. Man, they're cashing in on it. 'Bout time people got what Asians knew for ages. Sell cheap, cheap, cheap and make profits on volume. Customers happy, you happy....... it's win / win.

$50 - Wind River Water Resistant/Breathable DOWN BOMBER JACKET - RedFlagDeals.com Forums

decent deal on a bomber jacket if anyone is looking for something cheap and practical.

Codes to save money.

Enter 20% first - you can get this from the email sign-up on Marks'. They will send you one. You might have to do it a couple times, it looks like someone created a generator and as such, some of the codes they give you would be invalid. One time use codes.

2. wintersave2013 - save 10 off 40

3. nov2013 - save 10 off 40

There's also a nice expedition jacket for 30, regular 200, link is on page 12.

And BOGO free on driwear underwear, so 14 bucks gets you 2 dri-fits.
