  •  A Word About Our Pricing - Our prices are low.  About the same as on-line places but without the freight.  We'll match or beat any competitor's regular store price.  However, we won't compete with their specials,  sales, or promotionals, and never with their loss leaders - also known as "everyday special" prices.  All that means is you pay less for "this" so you can pay more for "that."
  • Discounts / Frequent Buyer Program - Active duty military, dependents, and veterans get 10% off every day.  Join our "Frequent Buyer Program" - shop 10 times and on your 11th  visit we'll give you the average of your previous 10 purchases as a store credit.
  • Gift Cards - We offer gift cards in $25, $50, $75, and $100 increments.
  • Special Orders - We don't stock everything we carry - just not enough room.  If there's something you need that we don't have in the store we'll get it for you.  Browse through our catalogs, and if you don't need it immediately, you won't have to pay for shipping.
  • Returns - All sales are final.  Unopened, unused items can be returned within in 10 days for a store credit.  We will gladly replace defective items if returned within 10 days with store receipt, and give you a 5% refund for your trouble.  There are no exchanges on sales, promotional, special order, or clearance items.
