BPS is wrapping up their Fishing Extravaganza, or whatever they call
it. It ends today, I believe.

I ordered a 7' med XPS rod with a 201BSF for a buck 49 last night.
That's the
regular price of the reel. Even with the $12 shipping and the extra
$5 for the long one-piece rod, I still come out thirty bucks better
than the store price

Check it out. If the following link does not work, for some reason
they are listed under spinning reel combos.

Damn....and I've been waiting for one of these reels to go on sale, too.
When you browse the combos, you can't see them unless you know this URL.

Or at least, when I browse the combos it doesn't show up.

I know. I don't know why it is listed under spinning combos. Anyway, as of
right now (Tuesday 9:30 PM EST), the prices were still good. I have assumed
that the sale is off in the store, but I don't know for sure. I do know
that for some items, the catalog operation and the stores are a little
different.

I just got my confirmation of shipping and they break the price down as rod:
$46.58, reel: $103.40. Not too shabby. The regular combo price is $200,
separately they go for $249 when not on sale.
