I purchased a few things already.

What's even more impressive is their Buy one, get the second for 70% off promotion. I am like the Imelda Marcos of slippers. I love wearing slippers around the house. All kinds (depending on the mood). Anyway, I was in Mark's ready to use my 40% off coupons when I came across these really nice slippers. Regular $34.95. They were marked as clearance item at $19.95. Another sticker next to it said $14.95. Holy crap. If I buy a second pair, it would be hella good deal. I proceed to checkout and the items scan to be $9.95 with the second ending up being $2.50!!! I pay for my items and I swear, I wanted to yell, "Start the car, start the car............ START THE CAR!!!!!!"........ except, I was the driver, LOL.

This was two days ago. Today, I scored a pair of shorts and cargo pants on clearance. As well, I bought me one of those "Dri Wear" cool socks with the 40% off coupon. When I go, I take an extra coupon with me just in case. You're not supposed to use more than one, but I take it anyway. Sometimes I give the coupon to moms who look like they can use a break. So today was no exception. There was this dude who was trying to get a student discount on a few expensive items. I think he was going to UBC and was taking horticulture or something. Anyway he was asking the manager for a student discount. Manager says, "No such thing." "If you got a discount before, you were lucky, because we're not supposed to do that anymore." The guy was looking pretty sad, so I gave him my extra coupon right in front of the manager. One of his items was an expensive looking leather coveralls or something. I think it was in the $180.00 range. Anyway, he was so relieved. Manager was like, wtf?

I told the dude, it's on-line. You just print the suckers out and boom! 40% off.

Oh, clarification on the buy one get 70% off. It only applies to clearance items, but holy crap, there are some nice things on clearance. So much so that I think Mark's is desperate to get rid of stock. Everything from safety gear and boots to shoes and summer clothes. Most of their camping stuff like lamps, flashlights, and three way powered radios are also on clearance.
