    Yes, I was just recently introduced to it as well. Now I check it like every day. I can see this being a Very Bad Thing.

    between sac and backcountryoutlet.com, I will be poor but well equipped. All kinds of shit I don't need. Now I have a personal policy that if I didn't know I needed it before I saw it on sac, I go to sleep and reconsider when I wake up.

    I have coworkers that dont even do anything but sit on thier asses check the sac site everyday. Its funny how one site, selling one item, can be the magic link.

    But you could put a pony keg in it when you go backpacking. Think of the possibilities...
    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

    Bastards got me for a Nixon Rover watch. I ain't complainin' though. This thing looks sweet, appears to be completely bombproof, as was a little over $40. And I'm really, really picky when it comes to watches.

    FACK! I bought that same jacket at a Patagucci sale for $99. And I thought that was a deal...damn you, bossass. It's a great jacket. Enjoy.

    And so now I have to ask, which is worse?

    The daily deals which torment your poor bank account.

    -or-

    Seeing something you just bought for a whole hell of a lot less.

    S&C is EVIL!!!!

    I think the worst thing is now that I'm unemployed and need some $$$ real bad, I have all this free time to surf the net and all I do is see great deals on cool stuff on ebay, Craig's List, SAC, Woot, dealmac, etc. My poor consumerized brain has a tough time saying know to a deal like a $70 Patagonia puffy. My rationale is I'm already in CC debt with credit to burn, why not?

    Fuck. Double fuck.

    yup. hopefully you are not suckered into some of the useless crap on there though... like the dakine boot locker.. there's a reason it's cheap.

    the patagooch jacket was definitely huge. as were the oakley mtn bike shorts.

    my wife was pissed when she saw the patagooch womens jacket for sale. she paid like $99 for hers...

    If the boot locker had wheels and a retractable handle, I'dve been all about it. I had a Salomon bag similar to this that went on many a trip until it split some seams.
