Here's a great story ... I drove 100 miles down to Cabelas to buy a new sleeping bag (I'm a BIG and TALL kinda guy) and ... wonder of wonders ... they were having a Big Tent in the Parking Lot sale! End-of-line well-pawed stuff but everything 50% off the last marked-down price. I found a pair of mildly scuffed (I couldn't see it) Hodgeman Wadelite waist-high waders in XL size that had been reduced twice from $89 to just $39.99 ... and half of $39.99 is ...ummm ... let's see ... $19.99!

Talk about serendipity!!
