does anyone read the midway mo. flyer on line? how do you like the new format that started about 6-8 mo. ago? the email did have it that when you opened the email you could see the flyer in a PDF format, full page and just scrole down. now you have to flip the page like a book then click on an item to enlarge it to read . then x off that item and click on the next and so on. i have found on there home sight you can find the pdf file for the news letter. i was just wondering if any one else disliked the new format also. or is it just me. i wish they would change there email back the way it was. just my 4 cents worth.

So far as I'm concerned, the new format's more trouble than it's worth...but then, for the last couple of months, I've been getting my hard-copy flyer BEFORE the on-line version.

I just go to their webpage when I want to purchase something. I don't buy stuff every month so the sales circulars don't interest me and they just clog up my In-Box.

I go in. Find the item I want. Purchase it and do the NRA Round-up to even the purchase off and then go on to do other things. Sounds a lot easier than having to navigate their new PDF Format.

I have let midway know what i thought about there change every mo. for the past 5 mo. maybe every one should ask them to put it back the way it was.

I don't like it either. you have to keep zooming in and if there is 2 things on the same page you want to compare sometimes you got to keep going up and down. Plus it's hard to skip through all the center sections with the ammo and bullets.

What triggers my impulse buying is when they send me those 20% off coupons. Usually around my birthday. But I gave them my C&R after my birthday last year so I wonder if i will get one this year.

I tell you what else I don't like is all those emails I receive asking me to fill out a survey after I order something from Midway.

I get the flyer from Midway, and several others. What else are you supposed to read on the pot? ha!

Midway is far from any sort of good deal anyway! Why bother?

Take a look at Graf's or MidSouth, etc.

The on-line flier is a joke to try to read....check the web site for sale, discountinued or clearance items. I do love their service. Quick delivery, once had a problem and they made it right with me. I just ordered 2 more of the Simmons Whitetail Classic scopes(6-20X)....hey, before you LOL, try one, decent scope for p-dogs at $100. It's the on Simmons scope I would buy.

I'm not very happy with MidwayUSA lately. I just ordered a two cavity Lee mold and it was priced at $17.79 but, when I got to the price I paided it was $29, I added $.16 to the NRA and the rest was special handling charges and shipping. Probably my last order with them? I think the bean counters have taken over MidwayUSA?

My shipping on 2 big 6-20x50 scopes plus a mec powder bushing was $10.65, which I thought was fair. MO to IA

remy3424, didn't you have to pay a special handling charge, $3?

No, I do have a dealer account, maybe that's the difference. Not much of a price break, almost nothing on the Hornady bullets I leave in S.D. each spring.
