I have to pay $29.99 a year to be able to use those ITC coupons, and
sure as hell don't want people to be able to use them for free. If you
join them right now you get a $10 gift card, making a one cent savings
on the regular price, plus the lower sales tax.

I can appreciate what you're saying, but I was just passing on that
there was a better deal if you happened to have an ITC membership.

While mucking about looking for coupons, discounts I saw where several
people mentioned that the stores don't always ask for your ITC
membership card and the coupon works okay. Other people said that they
"Photoshop" the coupon and remove the "ITC" part and the store still
takes it (shrug).

I don't do enough business with HF to warrant getting one (ITC). Between
sale prices and coupons I do okay enough. The most frustrating thing
with HF is going to the store and finding out they don't have it in
stock. That happens to me at least half the time. The store is a 40
mile drive there and back and almost always a special trip. That blows
$8 in fuel costs alone, not to mention annoyance...

Right now they are offering flat rate shipping for $6.99 on most items
that aren't deemed "overweight" (through 12/31/2011). So I tried
ordering a couple things. I'll find out if that works or not. Noticed
several people complaining that they couldn't ship items in a
satisfactory manner either. Thin box, one swipe of tape, missing items
from box, damaged items... But there really isn't any other inexpensive
game-in-town so we all put up with it
