I agree with Fabs about hitting the post-season sales hard. I too made out like a bandit during the Galyans-Dick's transition and picked up a beautiful Hush Hide 3-tier reversible camo parka for a fraction of the original cost. It was my deal of the year!
Fortunately (or unfortunately $$$
) it is right on my way home from work so I was able to stop in every few days to see what was marked down. It's a little work but you can make out pretty well if you're persistant and willing to search through the racks and discounted clothes bins.
