Described best on the Cabela's website,
"The store showcases thousands of products, including hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, boating and wildlife-watching gear, as well as outdoor clothing and outdoor-themed gifts and furnishings, Cabela's is famous for its strong brand and world-renowned reputation for delivering quality merchandise, value and legendary customer service."
I'll be the first to admit that I am no hunter or angler, and that I don't typically go shopping at stores that target the stereotypical "sportsman" or gal, but I liked Cabela's and quickly started building a Christmas list for my family.
Things that stood out for me:
- Quality outdoor clothing by top brands along with Cabela's own premium brand
- A guarantee on anything you buy which includes a life time warranty on anything that breaks, fails to operate as promised, or that is just plain unsatisfactory in any way.
- A 90 day return policy on clothing should you fail to like something or discover it just does not fit the way you'd like
- The archery range (I could see children enjoying a trip to Cabela's for this reason alone)
- The homemade nuts and fudge! (the fudge is made fresh in store and the nuts were to die for! I'm stocking up for next year's hiking season!!)
- There were some original toys and fun items my son would like for Christmas. (I know he'd love shooting marshmallows with a bow and that he'd find it fun to use a special fishing rod next time he gets to roast a hot dog over a campfire.)
- A large camping section to rival what you'd see at Canadian Tire or other outdoor stores in Calgary
